The nature of the business is that artificial intelligence of all flavors is extremely poor at being 100% correct. 90%, maybe one day, but not now.
The concept that automobiles will travel without human assistance to override IO mistakes from sensors is ridiculous.
My Tesla once tried to steer me into a guard rail (multiple times) because the setting sun caused a lens flare. You can't tell me that this is well tested technology that will enable level 3. Only after doing that twice, autopilot noticed it and disables autosteer.
The cameras also have condensation and freezing issues, causing them to not work on cold, wet days.
This was a car that was, according to Elon, fully equipped for self driving.
I really enjoyed autosteer, but there's major flaws in the current implementation and I seriously doubt they'll deliver on current hardware. If they don't, I'm really curious about the outcome of the lawsuits.
