    A Tesla marketing lie caused people to die. As the video pointed out the real reason they got rid of the extra sensors was to save money at the cost of safety. This is all about greed.

    At this point Tesla should be disbanded as an example of what happens when companies disregard safety.

    I think it also highlights the absurdity that the stock market has become and how it directly contributes to a culture that allows for human suffering as long as record profits are believed to be around the corner.

      You know what really pisses me off? Some of the newer models have radar built in again (no ultrasound though). Tesla just doesn’t use it.

    This is ancient news, but I still cant believe they ditched lidar. Relying in computer vision alone when you could easily give it more reliable data to work with is just stupid.

      Do you mean radar? Tesla has never used lidar.

        There was debate around whether they should use lidar. I thought I remembered that the initial plan was lidar but that musk dropped it before any actually got into the hands of consumers. I could be wrong though

      Downvoted for shitty, clickbait comment.

      I already know that this comment is a nothingburger, because if it was something then they would have watched the video and have actual critiques.

      Probably just going to be some guy trying to make people angry by getting very ignorant in all of his arguments and practically begging the audience to agree with him.

        While the title is clickbait…your generalization of the channel and the video without even watching.

      More Perfect Union does pretty good videos. Not a guy it’s an org.
