Tesla’s Robotaxis - The Future or Just an Overrated Hype?

Tesla finally revealed its robotaxi. Others have already hit the streets. But they’re far from mainstream - why is that?

It's interesting how Europe wants to lead, but regulates away all possibilities...

[@jimj2683]

Europe is a socialist hell-hole.

[@julesmasseffectmusic]

It's interesting that the USA allows public roads and pedestrians to be experimented upon.

[@AliBoba]

There is a big effort in Europe to improve public transport infrastructures... that's how you lead!

[@pyotrberia9741]

This video failed to mention that Tesla DOES NOT have autonomous vehicles. The recent publicity event only showed what they might look like if Tesla ever manages to get the technology working.

[@APN1011]

I couldn’t see any robotaxi in the video 🙄

[@craftbox9276]

Waymo doesn't really lead in america, in a few city blocks at most. Waymo and Cybercab are completely two different things. Waymo can only run on "virtual rails" made with hd maps and lidar, and even then it's not that good. Cybercab uses vision based autopilot, basically the same stuff humans use but a computer, to drive and thanks to that it can drive anywhere a human can.

[@assaqwwq]

Actually waymo has more than lidar. What's weird for me is you talk about Tesla only using cameras like it's a good thing... What exactly can a human eye see during fog??

[@craftbox9276]

@@assaqwwq cameras are better in a fog than lidar. Lidar uses lasers which can be scattered by the water in the air and either it doesn't see anything or sees something wrong which it doesn't know is wrong. Cameras see as much as a human, but a computer might notice more details in the feed than a human would, as it fully focuses on processing it. Also humans don't need a lidar to drive, so why should a computer need it. All it needs is sufficiently advance processing and interpretation, which is mostly only a software limitation.

[@assaqwwq]

@@craftbox9276do you have like a reading impediment? I told you waymo doesn't only use lidar. As for the rest of the nonsense, a computer cant and shouldn't infer. period. A detail doesn't make a picture.

[@Snowcookies]

If there is no battery explosions, yes :)

[@SirThomas1212]

It was movie props show case not real world products.

[@onsokumaru4663]

Title say tesla robotaxis. Video is about waymo robotaxis

[@1mybrid]

Thanks for more FUD!!!

[@YourMajestyTheKing]

they would end up with a steering wheel. I am surprise that robo taxi is not an uber like platform for Tesla today!

[@AliBoba]

The future is better and more public transports, not this substitute of the same thing!

[@mahbubhossainsamm]

I ❤ Robo Taxi.

[@martincday007]

Intelligent piece ruined by the Waymo parking lot "tabloid press" jibe. Some people want to laugh at a robot falling down a flight of stairs, while others like to look at how close they are to solving a difficult problem. Tesla do not have and currently do not compete in the Robotaxi arena.

[@assaqwwq]

I guess you didn't see the latest tesla event then. They are pivoting hard on that arena

[@user-pq6si4ol4w]

And even fewer people actually care about what the problem is, which is car dependency.

[@martincday007]

@@assaqwwq Yes I saw the event and heard Musk expect Tesla to have something to show by 2027.

[@ys9205]

Waymo and other robotaxies are driving by people from a distance. Each Waymo taxi requires 2 drivers. The same about Chinese “ronotaxies”. It’s all lies for now, there is no real driverless technology yet.

[@michaelnurse9089]

Actually, AI handles complex situations far better than humans. See AlphaGo and friends.

[@assaqwwq]

Actually, AI hallucinates and the more variables the more chances there are of something going wrong

[@theairfryermaster]

These robotaxi vehicles from companies that are already up and running are basically just dumb machines packed with expensive, complex sensors to map everything around them in 360 degrees to avoid collisions-kind of like a robotic vacuum. But with the random chaos of traffic caused mainly by reckless drivers, distracted pedestrians, and grumpy cyclists, these vehicles struggle to make decisions in tricky situations, so they need human remote assistance. And that’s just not scalable. If you take a Waymo robotaxi out of the city it mapped, it can’t even move. On the other hand, Tesla takes a totally different approach. Forget those pricey LIDAR sensors; Tesla uses computer vision combined with AI. As Tesla drivers hit the road and fine-tune the FSD system, the AI learns how to handle complex situations. It thinks instead of just reacting to sensors. Just like humans use their eyes to see and interpret the world around them and make decisions based on past experiences, Tesla's AI in the FSD system uses cameras to see the world in real-time and makes decisions (it thinks and acts) in the most effective and logical way for each problem it encounters. In other words, Tesla's FSD is literally LEARNING TO DRIVE like a human. And since this AI is learning from data collected from thousands of drivers, examining and cataloging all their mistakes and successes, by 2025, it will be the best and most reliable driver on the streets. Unlike humans, its calculations, decisions, and actions will happen in millionths of a second-reaction times millions of times faster than any human driver. Once Tesla has that, it can send its autonomous vehicles anywhere on the planet, and they'll know how to drive perfectly on roads and highways they've never seen before. So, do you get why Tesla is going to completely dominate this game? It’s GAME OVER for the competition.

Found it! Elon's youtube account! Shill.
