#SelfDriving

Elevators are the #selfDriving #ElectricCars you're looking for, but they only go up and down. To travel horizontally, you can walk, if we build skybridges between buildings.

I can't wait for a self-driving car.

Tesla expands no-hands driving, regulators have questions :

The government has been investigating Autopilot for crashing into emergency vehicles parked on freeways, as well as hitting motorcycles and crossing tractor-trailers.

A though on #AI #SelfDriving vehicles: There is clearly a strong market out there, and the technology is mostly there. The challenge is that the current environment is designed for human drivers. For a historical comparison look at the high wheeler cars at the turn of the 20th century. These vehicles had to operate on the infrastructure designed for horse and buggy. My #Tesla M3 is in every way a superior car, but it would have been useless on the rutted dirt tracks of the era. My modern car needed the modern road and highway system to develop first.

I predict that the big advances in Self-driving will come from upgrading transportation infrastructure to be more predictable for the AI rather than the abilities of the AI reaching the point where it can successfully navigated every conceivable hazard and situation found on today’s roads.

San Francisco's experiment astride
With Google and GM on a ride
The taxi's were bumpy
And caused quite a frumpy
The chaos spread far and wide

Here is me, today in San Francisco, stuck at a green light behind a self driving car that suddenly turned on its hazards and refused to move (I have a video that refused to upload, so here are some screen shots): #selfdriving #selfdrivingcars

#California #SanFrancisco #SelfDriving #Activism: "The “coning” that Afergan witnessed was part of a campaign launched by Safe Street Rebel, a local activist group previously known for organizing protests in support of bike-lane construction and public-transit funding. Now its members have turned their attention to robotaxis. According to government data reported by the news site Mission Local, Cruise and its rival Waymo—a subsidiary of Google’s parent, Alphabet—together operate 571 self-driving cabs in California. Users can hail them via an app. Service is concentrated in San Francisco, where the companies have been subject to a variety of limits imposed by the California Public Utilities Commission. The two companies now want the CPUC to remove those restrictions, despite objections from San Francisco’s police union and transportation and fire departments about robotaxis’ troubling habit of blocking traffic and obstructing emergency vehicles. The commission has postponed a decision twice but is expected to vote tomorrow."

Protecting your #selfdriving #car, and your #privacy, from #cyberhackers in the age of #AI
https://techxplore.com/news/2023-08-self-driving-car-privacy-cyberhackers-age.html

When I'm President, we will introduce a simple two-step process for deploying autonomous vehicles:

1. Perfect the hands-free restroom, then,

2. Allow self-driving vehicles to operate near humans.
