Well it isn't a death but somebody ran a red light and hit me because their car driving computer was broken and didnt know the area and had kids in the car that distracted it. Actually, wait, it wasn't a Tesla, it was actually a jeep with an infallible human driver that wrecked into me... It must have just been an 'edge case'

Why did they call it Autopilot instead of Cruise Control+ or something? Autopilot colloquially means "the thing drives itself" so of course you have retards watching harry potter while they hurtle down the highway. Tesla are going to get sued for a million billion dollars.

I think this is a good opinion and people will ignore it In this thread because they'd rather attach their ego to the time frame when full auto cars will be viable.

I went over that already and some dumb rear end in a top hat said that no one in their right mind would EVER think that "autopilot" means it drives itself.

Trips will be free for the time being, rather than the standard local rate of $1.30 per mile. In the long run, Kalanick says, prices will fall so low that the per-mile cost of travel, even for long trips in rural areas, will be cheaper in a driverless Uber than in a private car. “That could be seen as a threat,” says Volvo Cars CEO Hakan Samuelsson. “We see it as an opportunity.” 30 fuckin years my rear end in a top hat this poo poo is going to be everywhere in a decade Moridin920 fucked around with this message at 19:51 on Aug 18, 2016 |

They are going to have two people in the car at all times in case the inevitable happens. This isn't a "rollout", it's a beta test they're conducting on customers. A person who knows more about it than you or I said thirty years, sorry if that fucks up your dreams for an anime high tech future.

They literally do not work in the rain, which means they're useless 150 days out of the year here.

No one moved goalposts. This is a beta test. Call me when they can drive themselves without human intervention across the sort of conditions you can reasonably expect to be normal (i.e. snow, rain, and so on).

Cool well if they can't go from Beta test to full commercial production in less than thirty years then you might be on to something lmao Here's another article I can't wait for you to handwave away somehow http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/17/business/ford-promises-fleets-of-driverless-cars-within-five-years.html quote:At a news conference on Tuesday at the company’s research center in Palo Alto, Calif., Mark Fields, Ford’s chief executive, said the company planned to mass produce driverless cars and have them in commercial operation in a ride-hailing service by 2021.

I know it can hurt to admit it sometimes but maybe just maybe you're wrong and you're digging your heels in to avoid losing face or whatever?
