This comment is pretty funny in the context of a world where there are currently cars driving millions of miles without human intervention in a variety of conditions. I don't think anyone cares whether it meets your personal definition of "self driving".

Reminds of the Chinese proverb: “Man who say it cannot be done should not interrupt man doing it.”

I guess like heavier than air powered flight will never happen. I mean there would be so many problems.

Cmon, - you are the one misrepresenting the actual definition of self driving - aka Level 5.

No vehicle is at level 5.

Calling it “my definition” and then switching the actual definition is unfair.

Who decided that only level 5 qualifies as "self-driving"?

This comment is pretty funny in the context of someone starting out by claiming no cares “whether it meets your personal definition of "self driving".”

No, you said that I changed the “actual definition” of self-driving from Level 5 to something else. I’m asking what makes Level 5 the “actual definition” and not just an arbitrary point that you’ve personally decided means self-driving?
