A 2025 Tesla Model 3 in Full-Self Driving mode drives off of a rural road, clips a tree, loses a tire, flips over, and comes to rest on its roof. Luckily, the driver is alive and well, able to post about it on social media.

I just don’t see how this technology could possibly be ready to power an autonomous taxi service by the end of next week.

    Wonder no more. Someone did this on YouTube using cardboard boxes, Tesla drove straight through them. Skip to around the 15 minute mark to watch it drive through the “wall” without even touching the brakes.

    Edit: thought the person you were replying to said it thought a wall was a tunnel, not the other way round. Still funny to watch it breeze through a wall with a tunnel painted on it though.

      Yes I know the video, what I was wondering is if it could be true that they tried to make the AI detect a wall with a road painted on it, and it falsely believed there was a wall, and made an evasive maneuver to avoid it.
