Comment on General Motors' robotaxi service suspends driverless operations nationwide regulators
snooggums@kbin.social 1 year agoYes, the car does not appear to have safety features that let it know a body is caught underneath, but it did try to get out of traffic after the collision.
Since this never happens to human drivers that means autonomous cars are unfeasible.
Or it is an opportunity to add some additional sensors underneath that will make it miles better than human drivers.
Really the main problem with autonomous cars at this point in time is a combination of the co panes hiding issues and the public expecting perfection. More transparency and a 3rd party comparison to human drivers would be the best way to both improve automation and gain public trust when they actually see how bad human drivers can be.

Also charge corporations for betatesting on the fucking public… they’re using tax payer funded roads and putting our lives at risk for their profits. They should share those profits far, far more than they do.
