Re: Introducing Navigate on Autopilot
#2Very impressive. However these autopilot features are getting subjectively less impressive as time goes on. I want a bit more 'wow'.
Autopilot is not so compelling if you live in Europe with 'analog' roads rather than the mix of well designed, nice and wide 'residential', 'street level' and 'interstate highway' roads that there are in the U.S.A.
Reminds me of Space Shuttle launches, at the start of the programme people would be transfixed for hours waiting to see what would happen, a couple of years later it was 'meh', no need to put the TV on. Even if there was a cool spacewalk some of the magic was lost, awe levels dropped from 10/10 to 7/10. Autopilot is a bit like that, kind of need to see it work going through the streets of Paris, Cairo or Bombay for it to be back in the realm of stunningly amazing.

#3> While initially the feature will require drivers to confirm lane changes [...], future versions of Navigate on Autopilot will allow customers to waive the confirmation requirement if they choose to.
So at least technology wise my dream becomes true: a car that takes care of the biggest and most boring part of long drives, the highways. Hopefully legislation will follow soon...

Interesting that you consider US highways and streets to be well designed, given that they are objectively substantially more lethal to their users than European roads.

In what way are they “objectively substantially more lethal?”

Living in Paris center, I'm convinced it will be the last place where autonomous cars will be allowed. Roads are smalls, the city plan is old, there are experiments with new e-scooters, people don't respect priorities, etc
It could only work if ALL vehicles were automated and no human driving was allowed. But even then, walking people will exploit the overly-safe vehicles' decisions and just force the priority (which is probably a good thing to give the city back to walking people).
In my opinion, the capital cities won't be the same once autonomous cars are fully developed, there will be probably more public transport, and more car-pool sharing drive services, more escooters, etc. The most interesting long term usage of autonomous driving is on highway and smaller cities than capitals, with less traffic

#8> Navigate on Autopilot can be customized to a driver’s preferences, including four settings for speed-based lane changes (Disabled, Mild, Average, or Mad Max).
Mad Max is definitely a feature I want self-driving cars to have.

No kidding. This does not inspire confidence. v9 already does weird things like show stopped cars bouncing around randomly. This kind of thing along with crazy branding really makes it feel unsafe.
It’s one thing that the stereo goes to 11, that’s funny. But I’m not going to die if the stereo has a bug.
