That feels... very responsible?
I mean, we probably shouldn't concern ourselves TOO much with the profitability of a Google subsidiary and the pet project of the world's richest man. I think they'll figure out the monetization side of things. We should be laser focused on safety, which Waymo is certainly doing to a much higher degree than Tesla.
Someone else mentioned that over on Reddit, in a very clapback sort of way. Would you happen to be in Texas? I'm learning all about regional traffic law variations :D
So, my thought here: the stop sign is simply not recognized by the vehicle. It didn't see the stop sign and decide "legally, I have the right of way." The stop sign just doesn't appear on the visualization, cameras failed to register the blinking lit up sign, and thus the computer thought it had the right of way.
As a separate critical fuckup, it only realized the pedestrian was a pedestrian like a millisecond before impact. It wasn't a good test performance at all.
Having worked in construction, I can report, you can totally still do this!

Waymo had non-standard stop-signs figured out six years ago XD Feels essential to running a half-way responsible autonomous car service?
First iteration appear to be Tesla Model Ys. No word on additional sensors, so I am guessing the answer is no.
I heard it in health class a bajillion times, so as a reminder, abstinence is the only effective birth cont- oh wait, no, no, Teslas are very effective at preventing pregnancy and STIs.

Yeah. Yeah, can't use it in any failure-sensitive field right now.
No more than you could use a human who periodically hallucinates (and that means you are NOT good to drive, give me them keys XD )
LOL.
