OK, its just a deer, but the future is clear. These things are going to start kill people left and right.

How many kids is Elon going to kill before we shut him down? Whats the number of children we're going to allow Elon to murder every year?

Too bad Tesla's don't have that. Just cameras and machine learning.

The cameras alone should be able to see IR. There's filters over most digital cameras to prevent that, but no reason to do it here.

Tesla is just advertising technology that isn't ready, and people are dying as a result.

And its also always to have multiple layers of defence. Its straight up stupid to remove the redundancy in safety measures because you trust your tech.

Not only redundancy, but different types of sensors actually serve different purposes because they excel at different tasks.

For any camera to see IR, there must be IR light there to be seen. LIDAR and proximity sensors emit their own light, but TIL tesla doesn't have any... Great tech...my 300€ vacuum bot has LIDAR... Ofc it doesn't go 130KM/h in the dark, but I was 99.99% sure any self-driving car had the bare minimum of sensors, but I guess Tesla isn't one of them.
