Great point of reference and a great explanation about the AI. I hope to one day own a self-driving car (though it may not come for many years) but that mainly comes from the interest in how they work and do their thing to keep the roads safer.

[@sebastiane7556]

[@CyborgNinjaJesus]

I remember a quote from someone at Mercedes saying that there's too many variables on those situations, so probably they'll go with saving the driver and the people in the car because those they have more control over.

[@sparkyails123]

If you have a problem with what the AI would do then you have to ask what would you do in the same instance. We all experience situations like these all the time, and there are hundreds of thousands of people dead a year to show for it. Lots of these accidents happen because of HUMAN error. Now I am not stating that self driving cars are going to make all of the death go away, but they may help reduce the number of fatalities every year. We have to at least give these vehicles a chance.

[@dunhillsupramk3]

that choice should be the driver/owner to make not a car company or idiots on some comity.... anytime you buy a new car with lvl5 it should ask you the question and whatever you choose then the car will follow... (we know 100% of ppl is going to choose themselves, myself included)

[@sparkyails123]

@dunhillsupramk3 Wait doesn't that make your point mute? Why give the choice to the consumer of the vehicle, then if any deaths occur they can and will be placed on the head of the owner of said vehicle. Even if they are not the ones currently in the vehicle. If the car is programmed to avoid an accident at all costs then the but there is a crash. All evidence will be viewed to make a decision afterwords. Also if both or one of the vehicles in a crash or viewing a crash can be used in a court of law to find the one at fault even if its a hit and run.

I don't need a self driving car, I just need to be able to drive my car with a PS4 controller. That would without a doubt increase my reaction times and overall comfort while driving.

[@coder0xff]

Level 5 is the definition of general artificial intelligence. It would have to cope with verbal and nonverbal commands from police officers and construction workers, make ethical judgements about fairness and risk, and be ready for situations no one has ever anticipated for it, or have even occurred before.

[@shubham-pawar]

So a level 5 car has no steering wheel and no way for human to control it. But what if the car has an accident and kills say people on the road then who is responsive the driver the car company or the pedestrian. 🤔

[@vanhakaveri]

That is the million dollar question.

[@evaxgamers]

Shubham Pawar The car company definitely but it should’ve been stated in the paper agreement when you purchased the car.

[@MoonLiteNite]

They said the same thing about elevators when there was no longer a need for a manual operator....

[@dollgen]

I would assume the car company would take the place of driver blame. If it was the pedestrian's fault it would be the same as it currently is with the pedestrian taking the blame. This doesn't really change much.

[@CalebMcFarland]

That’s one of the things to figure out. Just because they’re obstacles doesn’t mean they shouldn’t do it though. We wouldn’t have any of the stuff we have if that were true.

[@EnbyMiata]

*just* driving has a charm of its own, you control the car yourself plus it can be fun, doing activities like track, drag racing or drifting

[@ocass66]

I would love to have a self driving car that does everything on its own, but I would NEVER buy a car that doesn't have a steering wheel or allow intervention.

[@JosueC730]

Nope. It's not because you can handle a situation better than a computer. It's because the humans won't purchase a car to never be able to drive it. Driving might always be assisted or completely autonomous depending on the user choice, but it's the computer that will still save lifes in both cases.

[@reigh7]

How would a level five car choose the parking say a disabled person would prefer over what's easiest to find? How would a level five car deal with a street suddenly blocked by protesters? How would it deal with an armed robbery attempt with passengers inside? So many questions to which I want there to be an override for driving but then if we don't have people skilled at driving anymore then how would they do any better.

[@JosueC730]

Oh but Tesla called it "Autopilot" for a reason: they will update and improve the software, it's an AI and it will evolve to level 5 some day, (of course I hope they never take the steering wheel and pedals out)

[@jerbid_]

i think tesla should rename "autopilot" to "copilot"

[@benwindle1888]

Tesla will update all their cars to allow full autonomous driving capability when the US government allows it. This is to the best of my knowledge.

[@olofpalme3662]

I think the biggest problem with level 5 autonomy is moral situations, for an example, the car has two options, run over a deer or run over a baby. From a human perspective it seems obvious, you run over the deer. But from the cars perspective it's different, the car puts itself and you over anything else which means the car will evaluate which will do the most harm to the car and you, and in that situation the car will drive over the baby for minimum damage. To overcome this issue you have to program every single scenario and outcome, which is almost impossible with modern technology. Of course someday we will see the level 5 autonomous self driving vehicles but I think it will take a couple decades.

[@xsailia8096]

[@DUCKDUDE4100]

I'd really like level 5 vehicles without user controls available to be banned before we even get to that point because if the vehicle gets hacked which, if they're as useless as current cars with internet access, they will be, then you're outta luck.

[@dollgen]

We already have a large dependency on systems which are theoretically able to be hacked by remote users. This doesn't mean we should stop using all such technologies. Obviously care should be taken, but outright banishment is far too extreme.

[@danielhebard1865]

The bigger issue is the very real possibility that a foolish populous will vote to make anything under level 5 illegal. If driving your own car is eventually banned, I can assure you that many people who love to drive, myself included, will become criminals.

[@Shipprofile08]

that would be an easy fix. I would just program the car to only download updates for its software or GPS maps while at the house connected to wifi (like how you can set your phone to update its apps while only hooked up to wifi to save data) or have the car only hook up to the internet when it requests for an update to its maping system (lets say you drove to a new state and the car didn't have the maping info for that state) but down right banishing it so it doesn't get hacked is not the answer!

[@larryscott3982]

Self driving is not better faster cheaper. If the driver is head down - completely out of touch - and the car encounters a bad situation, and sounding an alarm, the driver has to take over. Which means the driver has to instantly become aware of the situation, all 360 degrees of it, and take over with superior skill. The more head-down the driver, the less capable the driver becomes to be able to take over. No. A half asleep driver suddenly required to take control is a bad idea.

I was a contractor for an autonomous car company. Autonomous cars are SO far behind. I wouldn't trust them for another 7 years or more

IMO: At least 20 years until commercial (but not necessarily affordable) versions of Level 5 vehicles pop up in the marketplace. 10 years until all Tesla vehicles are Level 4, and a lot of other manufacturers have Level 4 versions of their vehicles available. Also, 10 years until most of the new cars you can buy, have Level 3 options available (for those vehicles that are priced _accordingly_ even if it's their base (non-autonomous) version). Just an opinion. Don't attack me people.

[@MarkNorville]

That is not really a level 4 car though, it is not capable of driving in different areas, the data is being used to make it safe as possible in that area, and mapping every nook and cranny so it would be like driving on a nascar circuit, e.,g a ring, and then taking it to another race track such as Silverstone where the roads bend, it could not learn fast enough.

Removal of stop lights and stop signs. I don't know why the finalizes version didn't add a step 6 for what 5 is in the original plans. They basically just fleshed out the plan.

While I grew up during my ten-aged and early 20's I always wished that there were such cars that could drive on their own. When I got to my late 20's I heard about the self driving cars and self gurgle driving cars so I truely got interested in learning more about these cars then I started doing some research on KZbin and gurgle, the more information I found out the more interesting it became and the more determine I feel about guying one of these cars to get me around independently and then I'll be forever happy and free.

If you buy a model 3, mod it and then break it, are you gonna ask Tesla to fix it?

[@jur4x]

Why not? After all, if I'm paying for repairs, what's the difference how it got broken?

[@cpufreak101]

Tesla has their repair info locked down to their own network of repair centers (literally, even an independent shop can't get so much as what PSI the tires should be inflated to) so it kinda does matter, as they can refuse to fix it if you broke it cause of the mod

[@mandalada6354]

jur4x an issue of accountability. If you take apart your car and put it back together with stuff missing and stuff added unprofessionally, Tesla service providers could break the vehicle even more while fixing it because not everything is where it should be. Then Tesla would have to compensate in some way. On top of that it's a risk to the servicers. As someone who is tranied to fix a Tesla, I know how it behaves. Even when something breaks, as a professional I would know that it should behave in a certain set of parameters. If you suddenly change how the car operates then as a repair person I am now at risk of the car doing things it shouldn't and potentially harming me. I hope that answers your question.

[@jur4x]

Justin Noker. Well there are no official Tesla service centres anywhere in Russia, Ukraine and other ex-USSR countries, and yet people do get their grey imports repaired. And not just tyre replacements. Though, I've heard that some garages in those countries had find a solution for replacement that battery relay that was problematic on early Model S cars.

okay this was actually a helpful video! given the future, this is knowledge a lot of people should start gaining.

[@DesolatorMagic]

Linus going hard on that Subway menu lol

[@iHARTZwatrmelon]

yes more videos on this topic loved the vid linus !!!

[@DaveMcIroy]

Every car is self driving. That's the point of a car...

[@dollgen]

Self-driving means the car drives itself without any input from another entity.

[@DaveMcIroy]

Ahm, no. Driving is the act of moving a vehicle. What you mean is piloting or steering.

[@PyrimaticTHEORY101]

I think the main problem why we don't see more Level 5 cars on the road today is that the power required to make those kinds of decisions is just too great for it to handle. I think the best was to go about it will have to be that cars can Level 5 equipped but will have the it dumbed-down either by the government or by manufacturers and still maintain human control input. Only when there are enough self-driving cars where a lot of possibilities for accidents can be reduced to almost zero will we see cars that are Level 5 with no human input.

Obviously we would love to watch a techquickie episode about the AI in a self driving car

After driving my Kia Cadenza for about six months, I am happy with the DA features, but I foresee a very long curve ahead befor adoption of this technology becomes the norm. The main difficulty I see is the lack of readiness of our current highway systems, and the lack of maintenance and poor choices made by those who are in charge of spending our tax money wisely to make safe roads. In my car, there is a camera to read the lines in front of the car to keep it between the lines, but so often lines just disappear from lack of maintenance and then I must take over myself for awhile. So my car is quite advanced and excellent, but my roads suck big time. Then there are the seasonal differences, such as no lines when it is snowing heavily or even after plowing when it isn't done correctly.

Convince the public that something is true? Impossible. Convince the public that the opposite is false, and is a cover up conspiracy...ok, you've got something going for you.

[@Azivegu]

one debate is the Trolley Conundrum. If two fully autonomous cars are to collide, but only one can make a maneuver to save the lives in one of the cars, which one will be sacrificed? A car full of seniors, or a car with one budding and prospecting scientist making advances in improving human life. Although I don't find this argument fully convincing as both cars should be able to prevent the crash completely, it is a moral debate that does still need an answer.

[@hunterleach5710]

So, this is my opinion about this self-driving car thing, I think some level 5 cars should have optional steering wheels so you can override whenever you want to in case if you're not comfortable with the self-driving car driving in some areas, you can go ahead and take over, that's what I want the level 5 self-driving cars to have is an optional steering wheel and a optional override function in case if you want to take over

[@rjhrjh3]

I would love a video on how society will be impacted by level 5 self driving cars.

[@bigbruhmoment8706]

Basically Level 0: only goes beep beep hoop next to a wall Level 1: can slow down for safety based features + traffic aware cruise control Level 2: very clever cruise control Level 3: really dumb full self driving Level 4: full self driving but like %90 of the time Level 5: non existent taxi driver

[@morezco]

Yes! A video on how the AI works would defo be a treat

[@harishravishankar]

All we need to do really would be to put the cell phone for map viewing and it will capture images with camera and give feed back to the engine control unit by the cigarette lighter charging cable. Every car can have an auto pilot

[@lineseyaether]

very interesting as someone who drives on a lot of rural roads that a person isn't quite sure are roads, i would never want a car without the ability to take manual control, however for the daily commute or store trips on normal roads a level 5 would be nice.

[@ameraljabr405]

thanks Linus, this video helped me in my ITS course

[@magmagon5572]

Waymo is confined to Chandler, not Phoenix. I see these things driving around a lot.

[@max-dy3vs]

Interesting. Thanks for uploading!

[@Johnydanerous]

I would like to see a future Techquickie on how the AI inside a self driving car actually works...

[@jora0302]

I want the AI one. Sounds closer tech in tech quickie than the initial concept, but I still appreciate it.
