This is why vision only is bad and we need radar back, good thing that since Elon is busy with Twitter, Tesla has been recently doing a lot of things right.

Headcount seems much higher than the insider reporters had us believe. Though, I will admit to taking issue with "several thousand" contractors & "hundreds" employees on trust & safety, because that leaves only ~100 on engineering, not including HR, finance, etc.

Another unpaid rent lawsuit:

Twitter sued by Crown Estate over alleged unpaid rent at UK HQ
The Crown Estate has filed a High Court claim against the social media firm over the alleged arrears.

that's interesting. I noticed some avatars with square borders then looked at others and noticed that all gold verified have square avatars now.

Lately I’ve just been seeing anti vax people pretending to have tremors…no not the greatest movie Kevin Bacon ever made, they’re all pretending to be Michael J Fox and recording it for attention

Probably the same people upset that Pink Floyd has gone woke because Dark Side of the Moon has a rainbow on it.

Of what? Whitta used to post on GAF or that Elon is a homicidal maniac intentionally programming his cars to kill us?
I think Whitta is still on my PSN friends list but the Elon thing might take a while

That his car tried to steer him off the road. I mean with the new auto drive it is very possible that could have happened. But it seems unlikely. Besides in his circles it is now cool to hate Tesla.

All Tesla has to do is release the data to prove otherwise, if that were the case.

I'm not sure what's worse, Musk ordering his killbot AI to murder an ally and their child or the *literal* violence of allowing discussion of Hogwarts Legacy.

Mr. Community
Don’t worry, the car will disconnect the self driving feature one microsecond before the crash to safeguard the company reputation.

How about you actually allow free speech and let me decide what is misinformation, or in this case "propaganda," Mr. Musk?

LOL. Is this similar to Daytona USA steering wheels where it would force control and steer your car to a normal position? That shit was hardcore powerful. I dont think the strongest guy in the world could counter it doing its own thing.

Okay, well he knows about it now, so he has no excuse. He either fixes it, or continues to look like an even bigger hypocrite.

Been a bad month for Twitter. Sued by the Crown for rent. They were evicted from their Eastern headquarters in Singapore. They've been auctioning off furniture and kitchen equipment from their HQ in SF. Ad revenue is down 40% year over year. They face a legal complaint in Germany over anti-Semitic content. And there's word that they could face up to a $1bn in fines if they're found guilty of not abiding by the consent decree (I doubt the government would fine them anywhere near that amount, personally).
It's still large and active, but I wonder just how much longer it can last in this state.
And wow, her name is really Anita B. Etin. Walked right into that one.

They absolutely 100% surpress stuff from trending. The twitter breach that happened this month, never even trended once. And even searching for it barely brought back any results. Not to mention the only things that seem to trend now are ultra right wing stuff, its crazy. And im not a fan of woke stuff at all but can we get some middle ground?

Marquez Brownlee posted a video testing the self driving feature in his Tesla... 3 times he had to take over because it was about to put him in a dangerous position on the interstate.
It's possible. Just not intentional.

Have you somehow missed the laundry list of stories surrounding incidents involving the Tesla driver assist fucking up for seemingly no reason?
I only vaguely follow the whole Tesla drama surrounding his cars and even I have heard of more than a few examples of that happening.

I would never in a million years ever use auto pilot in a car. At some point every car will probably have this feature. I'll always turn it off.
Not only do I not trust AI sensors to drive for me, but it also can lead to carelessness like dozing off or being ill prepared to take over control if someone is busy in the seat doing other things.
It's no different than cooking food on the stove or doing laundry. You're suppose to always be attentive to what's going on. Even though the chances of something bad are low, you're not supposed to do do shit like cook food or dry your clothes for an hour while leaving the house to do errands and then come home.
It's disasters waiting to happen.

I love MKBHD. So many tech tubers are insufferable but he remains down to earth. Also cool to see him invest the earnings into his company. Seems like a cool guy to hang out with.
My wife's car disables cruise control when the vision assisted camera is blocked. Which basically means, during the winter, the feature is entirely absent. We've had cruise control for decades. To me, these 'features' are just another way to fuck the consumer.
Hell, I still drive a manual. I will never give into the autopilot BS until I have no other choice.

I saw one in a tunnel where the car just stopped and created a pile up. That is it. I am sure there are more though. A lot of people now though want to bring Elon down, so when you make a claim about something like that some proof helps. No one thinks auto-driving is infallible. I would probably never use it. But I want to see videos of cars acting on their own.

"One of the richest men in the world starts fundraising to pay off debt" is one hell of a storyline.

His Tesla AI read the Book of Eli script and wanted to punish him for its stupidity.
