Friendly reminder that tesla auto pilot is an AI training on live data. If it hasn't seen something enough times then it won't know to stop. This is how you have a tesla running full speed into an overturned semi and many, many other accidents.

I watched the whole video.. Mowed down like 90 deer in a row.
- Vehicle needed lidar
- Vehicle should have a collision detection indicator for anomalous collisions and random mechanical problems
"there was no Danger to my Chasis"
So, a kid on a bicycle or scooter is an edge case? Fuck the Muskrat and strip him of US citizenship for illegally working in the USA. Another question. WTF was the driver doing?
In regards to the deer, it looks like it might have been hard to see for the driver. I remember learning in driversED that it is better to hit the animal instead of swerving to miss it as it might hit a car to your side, so maybe that is what they were thinking?
You just need to buy the North America Animal Recognition AI subscription and this wouldn't be an issue plebs, it will stop for 28 out of 139 mammals!
Deer aren’t edge cases. If you are in a rural community or the suburbs, deer are a daily way of life.
As more and more of their forests are destroyed, deer are a daily part of city life. I live in the middle of a large midwestern city; in neighborhood with houses crowded together. I see deer in my lawn regularly.

I notice nobody has commented on the fact that the driver should've reacted to the deer. It's not Tesla's responsibility to emergency brake, even if that is a feature in the system. Drivers are responsible for their vehicle's movements at the end of the day.
True but if Tesla keeps acting like they're on the verge of an unsupervised, steering wheel-free system...this is more evidence that they're not. I doubt we'll see a cybercab with no controls for the next 10 years if the current tech is still ignoring large, highly predictable objects in the road.
That would be lovely if it wasn't called and marketed as Full Self-Driving.
You sell vaporware/incomplete functionality software and release it into the wild, then you are responsible for all the chaos it brings.
Then it's not "Full self driving". It's at best lane assistance, but I wouldn't trust that either.
Elon needs to shut the fuck up about self driving and maybe issue a full recall, because he's going to get people killed.
I hit a deer on the highway in the middle of the night going about 80mph. I smelled the failed airbag charge and proceeded to drive home without stopping. By the time I stopped, I would never have been able to find the deer. If your vehicle isn't disabled, what's the big deal about stopping?
I've stuck two deer and my car wasn't disabled either time. My daughter hit one and totaled our van. She stopped.
That said, fuck Musk.
Maybe drive a little slower at night. If you can't spot and react to animals on your path, you won't able to react when it's a human
Great on paper but literally not okay to slow down to 35 mph on the freeway ... Where most wild animals are hit at night.
Whether or not a human should stop seems beside the point. Autopilot should immediately get the driver to take back control if something unexpected happens, and stop if the driver doesn't take over. Getting into an actual collision and just continuing to drive is absolutely the wrong behavior for a self-driving car.
You're supposed to stop and report it so they can come and get it so no one hits it and ends up more squishy then intended.
Is there video that actually shows it "keeps going"? The way that video loops I know I can't tell what happens immediately after.
The driver's tweet says it kept going, but I didn't find the full video.
Inb4 it actually stopped with hazards like I've seen in other videos. Fuck elon and fuck teslas marketing of self driving but I've seen people reach far for karma hate posts on tesla sooooooo ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
the deer is not blameless. those bastards will race you to try and cross in front of you.
Finally someone else familiar with the most deadly animal in North America.
I'd give the moose the top spot. Maybe not in sheer numbers of deaths, but I'd much rather have an encounter with a deer than a moose.
Though for sheer number, I also wouldn't give that to deer, that spot would go to humans, though I can admit it's a bit pedantic.

For the 1000th time Tesla: don't call it "autopilot" when it's nothing more than a cruise control that needs constant attention.
Real Autopilot also needs constant attention, the term comes from aviation and it's not fully autonomous. It maintains heading, altitude, and can do minor course correction.
It's the "full self driving" wording they use that needs shit on.
