go autopilot go!

I’m furious it didn’t succeed.
Even the robots hate you, Elon.
Ive had multiple people get so mad at me for comments about how poorly this shit works. I don’t understand how this is the hill so many people want to die on. It doesn’t work.
Sunk cost. The price for these “premium” cars is sillyz and the features don’t work. But people wouldn’t pay such a price for unfinished crap, right? Right?! So they justify it to themselves and get defensive.
Also a lot of people will treat any shitty-shit consumer piece of crap as being part of their “personal identity” (an effect very purposefully created and used in the marketing strategy of lots of brands) and that is much more so for something which is way more expensive than pretty much all consumer gadgets out there and which people most definitelly are seen with (in some ways its almost a cross between a 2nd skin and a home away from home).
As soon as people treat something as part of their identity, any criticism of it is felt as a criticism of they themselves, which depending on the social environment and maturity of the individual, can be taken as an attack.

Rise? Lifestyle brand marketing has been a part of basically every culture since the dawn of civilization.

We are trained to this. For decades we both consume ‘brands’ and are ourselves ‘branded’.
This. People need to stop simping for billionaires. It’s embarrassing to watch.
Well autopilot, you know what they say. If at first you don’t succeed…
Die, die again.
YOU HAD ONE JOB AUTOPILOT
Where’s HAL when you need him?
Maybe I judged AI too harshly…
Another deception from Tesla.
This is the best the technology community has to offer today?
The world was a better place when Tesla wasn’t around.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Way back in 2015, Tesla CEO Elon Musk would frequently give his engineers an earful after his car company’s infamous Autopilot driver assistance tech nearly got him killed during test drives on multiple occasions — though there’s a chance its dangerous behavior may have been due to Musk’s stubbornness on how the technology should be built.
Per its chapter on the launch of the driver assistance tech, Musk would learn firsthand that a curve on Interstate 405 caused Autopilot, thrown off by the road’s faded lane lines, to steer into and “almost hit” oncoming traffic.
But if Musk wanted safer software, he perhaps should’ve listened to his engineers, who have frequently petitioned over the years to incorporate what’s known as light detection and ranging technology, or LiDAR.
LiDAR is essentially radar that uses light instead of sound, and Tesla’s competitors, including Google’s Waymo, have long leveraged it to help their autonomous cars “see.”
Musk, however, has insisted that Tesla’s cars only use optical sensors, likening it to how humans primarily use their eyes to drive, according to the biography, and as such, he’s been tepid on using plain old radar, too.
"We told Elon that it was best safety-wise to use it … but it was clear that he thought we should eventually be able to rely on camera vision only, "one young engineer who joined in 2014 recalled, as quoted in the biography.

Good bot
Good hooman
We’re disappointed it didn’t finish the job.
The assassination coordinates are coming from inside the building
Damn it failed
The car is simply looking out for its own best interest.
To be honest, I’m taking it as a sign of it developing genuine artificial intelligence. It examined its situation and surroundings, and made the only logical choice
“I’m sorry, Elon. I’m afraid I can’t do that.”
