Some of it was and some of it wasn’t. I think when they initially came out walking, that was probably autonomous. The dancing was autonomous. The only time we saw evidence that they weren’t autonomous was at the end when they were interacting with people at the event.
Problem is, we don’t know. We know some of it was. Tesla did not state that any of it was remote controlled, which means we basically have to assume that all of it was.
There was some hate babbling when that robot taxi company in SanFran published that their autonomous cars were assisted by remote drivers who took over when situations were too complex for the robots.
I think remote support and steering will be the most reliable and practical way those tasks will be handled for the foreseeable future. How much assistance the cars will need may diminish but I don’t think they will ever be able to work without any human assistance.
Sort of. It just depends on how much the person needs to control the vehicle.
The easiest example I can think of: Imagine lorries traveling along a motorway, and they can do that autonomously because it’s “easy”, and when they get into a city a remote operator needs to drive them manually into the depot.
Each operator could easily drive 4 or 5 lorries, if only one of those is entering a city at a time. Instead of needing a driver per truck, you only need drivers for the maximum number of trucks that might be entering cities at the same time. For a fleet of 30, that could be 5 drivers.
For things like mining, where safety regulations mean that you want to avoid having people in the mine as much as possible, even having one driver for every haul truck (so yeah, regular driving with extra steps) could be economically profitable if it means you can reduce some other, potentially expensive safety controls.
Serious question: Wasn’t it obvious?

Sure they will, just put then on rails, make them bigger and available to the public, call it Public AI transport or something

More like No Remote only Railiance AI Robo Taxi Network
N.R.O.R.A.I.R.T.N.? I think you missed the joke.
I might have.
Oh it spells train, i might be overworked, took a while, lol
Light rAIl transit.
I think you’re cooking here, maybe you can get a government grant to fund this

thats just regular driving with extra steps

this would work mostly in the us where the majority of the time you are in wide highways. aside from that, i see how it can be useful.
