Tesla Fans Furious at Video of Tesla Crashing Into Wall Painted Like Road (futurism.com)

In the piece — titled "Can You Fool a Self Driving Car?" — Rober found that a Tesla car on Autopilot was fooled by a Wile E. Coyote-style wall painted to look like the road ahead of it, with the electric vehicle plowing right through it instead of stopping.

The footage was damning enough, with slow-motion clips showing the car not only crashing through the styrofoam wall but also a mannequin of a child. The Tesla was also fooled by simulated rain and fog.

You’re bending over backwards to miss the point huh

So be clear about the point.

That’s like asking me to explain to you why 2+2=4

If you’re incapable of seeing how obtuse you’re being its either deliberate, or you’re mind numbingly dumb

i see so you don't know either, just trying to upset me, heh GL with that

what's your point again?

As a third party in this conversation: can you please re-read the conversation? It seems like you've misunderstood almost everything that was talked about

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Nah, someone can actually articulate the problem clearly or I'm not going to deal. 20 brigading accounts saying I'm incapable is nothing more than a troll.

So far, I've just had people double back and be vague.

Your take on what’s happening here is funny… you’re not being brigaded, you’re not being targeted by one guy with a bunch of alts. You said something stupid and dickheaded, and tons of people are trying to point that out to you, but you’re doubling down on being dickheaded and stupid.

But no, it’s everyone else that’s wrong. Do yourself a favor and just stop replying to the thread.
