Judkins said that after the finger test, a lead cybertruck engineer at Tesla said he did the video wrong.

If you read the article, it's not a statement with entirely no merit.

The engineers prioritized an algorithm which is far more likely to be useful in real world scenarios where you keep trying to cram a bunch of stuff in the frunk and close it (who hasn't done this?) rather than the edge case of repeatedly testing it with vegetables until you stick your finger in it.

Anyway, I suppose it's back to the drawing board.

This is why you keep your safety features consistent. If they want bag close mode, then make it where you hold instead of press a button or something. It "happening automatically" is just unpredictable to most, not magical

In addition, what if the person noticed the obstructions and then moved them away, and then accidentally got a finger in there? That's a realistic scenario too.
