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.

As someone who works on AV SW for a living, it's really not a big deal, assuming you've got certain limits already in place.
However, unlike Tesla, we're not just handing this out to random people who clicked "I agree" on the screen. We've got tons of dedicated training and have to demonstrate we can react to stuff and take over under worst-case conditions, and take incidents like this really seriously.
It's funny that he says "Oh, this is why it's not released to the public", as I did some driving with a Model 3 on the latest version of FSD within the last few weeks, and in a 1 hour drive had plenty of "Oh shit" moments like this. So yeah, they'll totally release garbage like this to the public, no doubt about it
Simulations show people will get out of your way 95% of the time, and it avoids nasty traffic jams.
Sure, and we do hundreds of thousands of miles of simulation on each SW build before it'll be okayed for even driving on site, then it has to pass additional tests before it's allowed on public roads with a test driver.
Leaks from SW development are mot encouraging fans.
