Are the dangerous Driver Monitoring issues Car and Driver found planned?
The review — It’s Not Just Tesla: All Other Driver-Assist Systems Work without Drivers, Too — https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a37260363/driver-assist-systems-tested/
Dave Vanderwerp did a pretty extensive set of testing on Driver Monitoring (DM) systems across the industry. Here is his key statement.
“Driver-assistance systems have become commonplace, and our testing found none of them can sniff out drivers aggressively misusing them.”
I suggest this is by design
It’s not just Tesla
Since the vast majority of AV makers and OEMs rely on the real-world for development and testing of their systems, largely through trial and error to train the machine and deep learning systems, every disengagement out of a relevant edge or crash case is not just negative progress but will literally doom the entire system. The means that they need the “safety driver” human Guinea pigs to have many of the crashes over and over and over to learn them. Supporting the myth that people have to be harmed or killed now to save more later. Think that through. Possibly tens of thousands of scenarios and derivatives run thousands of times each. And keep in mind the guinea pigs are not just in the vehicles. They are around them. Yes, they use simulation, but it is gaming architecture based. That means it has fidelity and real-time processing limitations that force way too much of the real-world to be used. Of course, this is resolved with DoD/aerospace simulation technology. (This would also resolve the time and cost issues the current approach uses that will make it impossible to get anywhere near L4 and save the lives these organizations say they want to save.)

Consumer Reports, “safety experts”, the government, most of the press and the driverless vehicle industry want us to believe Tesla is the only one using needless human Guinea pigs
