Enough Musk Spam

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

Since 2021, the NHTSA has required the manufacturers of self-driving systems to report crashes involving their technologies. This policy is part of the Standing General Order on Crash Reporting, designed to track real-world safety data and hold companies accountable for their self-driving systems.

This reporting offers helpful insight into how self-driving technology behaves in real-world conditions. However, as I began to review the NHTSA self-driving crash data for myself, I noticed something strange:

Tesla has requested a redaction on every crash report involving their self-driving technology.

Here's what we found when we dug into the data to see what was behind the redactions.

They seem to have a hard time avoiding stationary objects, like poles and trees.

I wonder how well they'll do in highly dynamic environments, like pedestrian crosswalks with bike lanes?
