Technology

They know these things are going to kill people; it's just inevitable.

Engineers are well aware of there being a cost-benefit analysis for saving human lives. O'Grady from Practical Engineering did a great video explaining how much a human life is worth to engineers. I think it was a little under $60k.

The purpose of reducing government oversight as much as possible is so that the cost of killing people is as low as possible.

It's not an on/off switch of government regulation. They know that every additional policy they can shift in their favor will translate to increased profits down the line as people inevitably die from these things.

Much like the mass shootings in the U.S., there's literally no solution for this. /s

So motorcyclists weren't enough, they're going after kids now? Did they move their headquarters to israel?

So, the USA people are the beta testers, i guess.

Tesla self driving is already responsible for the deaths of multiple people.

They weren't held accountable for those.

Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives

Let's not get carried away pretending America cares too much about children dying frfr.

I guess there's going to be a lot of heroes popping Robo-Taxi tires. To protect their community and all that.

Did they try it with a lighter colored child?

Texas releasing these things in public is horrifying. Tesla is last in this field, and refuses to add LIDAR, which is obviously what is needed.

Correction: Robo-Taxis Hit the Child in 2 Weeks

I knew I was better than a Tesla. I actually got my Class A for driving a school bus. I can legally drive pretty much anything on wheels, because the school bus pretty much requires everything. Even hazardous material training. Just in case the government needs to use a school bus to offload nuclear waste or something. I just like to think the kids are toxic. 🤷🏻‍♂️

The children were hamas obviously

Not unexpected.

Move fast and break things!

I wonder if the FSD disengaged mere seconds before impact so Tesla can blame anything but their shitty software.

Tesla be like: Yeet the child!

It hits the road in America. And considering the state of that country, this isn’t even near the list of problems atm.

They should throw in a loony tunes landscape for extra comedic value.

Elon is not going to personally take responsibility for his cars?

These accidents could be the dell knell for Tesla with the lawsuits that will follow
