    Yes, that’s exactly how autopilots in airplanes work too… 🙄

    I think camera FSD will get there, but I also think there are additional sensors needed (perhaps not lidar necessarily) to increase safety and like the point of the article states… a shitload more testing before it’s allowed on public roads. But let’s be reasonable about how the autopilot can disengage.

      Tesla’s won’t. Musk fired all his engineers. Mercedes has a better driving record these days.

      how autopilots in airplanes work

      That was interesting for some people, before we had autonomy levels defined for cars. Nobody wants to know that anymore.
