KayLeadfoot@fedia.ioOPto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Tesla Robotaxi Stops Mid-Intersection After Running a Red Light… The Influencer Onboard Calls It “Impressive”12·3 days agoNo way, the company leadership that gave us MechaHitler would never skimp on Q/A or safety guardrails for their AI products.

And radar is dirt cheap. Toss a radar module (or two!) under the hood, watch as your cars stop plowing into stuff in the frontal plane of movement. It’s automation so simple that even Hyundai gets it right.

We live in a dystopian information environment.
KayLeadfoot@fedia.ioOPto Technology@lemmy.world•Tesla Reports Drop in Self-Driving Safety After Introducing “End-to-End Neural Networks”4·3 days agoWow, that’s crazy – I thought they impartially reviewed the federal government and determined that all the waste was coming from the 10-person autonomous safety office at the NHTSA, and whoever does the science to make sure rockets don’t poison us all at the FAA.
KayLeadfoot@fedia.ioOPto Technology@lemmy.world•Tesla Reports Drop in Self-Driving Safety After Introducing “End-to-End Neural Networks”3·3 days agoI’ve also noticed that.
Intrinsic to the tech, I think. It’s not that it gets worse, it just gets different (intentionally, as a feature).
The teams that ensure “different” trends in the direction of “better,” those teams are universally very new at their jobs and at the technology.
So, serious organizations are figuring out how to test and deploy consistently better AIs. I don’t think Elon Musk runs a single serious organization, other than arguably SpaceX.

KayLeadfoot@fedia.ioOPto Technology@lemmy.world•Elon Musk Promises Grok in Tesla Vehicles By Next Week… as the New Grok 4 Blames “Anti-White Hate” on “Jews”2·15 days agoThat day is today! The new Grok now queries Elon Musk’s twitter feed as a solution to its antisemitic outburst problems.
I’m not kidding, I’m dead serious: https://apnews.com/article/grok-4-elon-musk-xai-colossus-14d575fb490c2b679ed3111a1c83f857
KayLeadfoot@fedia.ioOPto Technology@lemmy.world•Elon Musk Promises Grok in Tesla Vehicles By Next Week… as the New Grok 4 Blames “Anti-White Hate” on “Jews”6·15 days agoI got banned from Twitter for saying the word “cisgendered.”
So they DO know how to build limitations into the software! They’ve just done it in a fucked up, dystopian way :)
Edit: LOL I asked Grok… Cisgendered is filtered as a supposed slur, while both the R word for the mentally disabled and the hard R word for the pallor-impaired, neither of those words are filtered as slurs.
KayLeadfoot@fedia.ioOPto Technology@lemmy.world•Elon Musk Promises Grok in Tesla Vehicles By Next Week… as the New Grok 4 Blames “Anti-White Hate” on “Jews”7·16 days agoUnfortunately, you’ve been replaced by AI.
… so, the Cybertruck will blow itself up.
KayLeadfoot@fedia.ioOPto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Elon Musk Promises Grok in Tesla Vehicles By Next Week… as the New Grok 4 Blames “Anti-White Hate” on “Jews”1·17 days agoThat’s the rub. Sometimes you don’t know the utility of a tool until you build it. The future is weird that way.
Who would have thought WHAT people would chat with ChatGPT about? Like, romance? WTF? That’s strange, call it emergent behavior, the final utility was unexpected.
In my head, I anticipate the tool going down the track of voice assistants from the pre-AI phase, so just like Alexa for directions or simple searches, but local to the car. Maybe unintended utilities will arise? If it can do directions and music and web searches, I guess, we don’t really know what other utilities drivers will find for it yet?

They actually do mildly interesting things, and I can see it as a vector to eventually do ACTUALLY useful things. VW and Mercedes both use ChatGPT to power this feature for now.

KayLeadfoot@fedia.ioOPto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Self-Driving Tesla Crashes into Wall Painted to Look Like a Road… Just Months Before Planned Robotaxi Launch1·4 months agoThey tested a LiDAR rigged car, and it stopped just like you predicted. As of 2021, Tesla uses only cameras for FSD, and not even radar (which my stupid fine Toyota truck has).
They tested the idea safely by building the wall out of styrofoam, or at least that’s what it looks like when it blows apart :)
“It broke the test equipment” is not NEARLY the clapback Elon thinks it is. That’s actually really bad, and probably demonstrates the lethality of the vehicle (it’s just too heavy)
Also I love your username, show me the lie
