minus-squaresky@codesink.iolinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year agoHave you used it? It’s not very good. It tries to run red lights, makes random swerves and inputs, and generally drives like someone on sedatives. They’ve had to inject a ton of map data to try to make up for the horrendously low resolution cameras, but “HD MaPs ArE a CrUtCh” right? No radar or lidar means the sun can blind it easily, and there’s a blind spot in front of the car where cameras cannot see. Is what they’ve made impressive? Sure, but it’s nowhere near safe enough to be on public roads in customer’s cars. At all.
