There's another thing the AI missed.
If you watch the video you will see other cars changing lanes, with the car monitoring the road it's interesting that it was unable to pick up the pattern of the other cars moving out of the lane.

Yeah, but that makes the computer think, "Great, I have the lane for myself"

That could partly explain why the car didn't brake, but why didn't the driver brake? You cannot, as a driver, just turn on the autpilot and state that "Now I have no responsibility for the car any more".

I wouldn't bet something important on it.

The driver was probably busy checking out snapchat.

Have a look at the video again.
Very close to hitting the truck white smoke is seen coming from the wheels.
I think the driver or AI did brake, it was just to late to have very much effect.
I could be wrong and the driver may have been having a toke from his bong just before the crash.

There was a small mudslide in North Norway last night - Mudslide in Alta, Norway[^]. I wonder how a Tesla would have behaved on this road... The text is in Norwegian, but the photos tell their story. Look at the short video at the bottom of the story, where the house tips into the mud as if it were a toy house. Scary.
The last night mudslide is just an aftermath of a bigger mudslide a couple of days ago, about 600 meters long and 300 meters wide, 30-50 m tall. Eight houses were washed to the sea, but fortunately, no humans were hurt. (One dog were caugt in the mud and washed to the sea, but it was picked up from the water by a boat.)

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk on Thursday tweeted Thursday that he thinks it’s time to break up Amazon. We must be living in a computer simulation, as that headline shouldn't be possible in the real world
It's like the result of a game of MadLib.
Sorry, I just think we need to Ctrl+Alt+Del and restart 2020 over again.

Please do; and after that, we completely kill SpaceX and put it in public hands. With Boeing software

I thought it was really rich, coming from perhaps the greatest corporate welfare queen of all time.
It's also interesting that his concern about monopolies didn't extend to breaking up the federal government and the execrable Blue and Red teams.

Kent! You do realize that you have chosen the operating system for your hypothetical computer simulation right? Which version do you think it should be running on?

Don't know the version, but by how this year has been going, it's only been programmed in brainf*ck.

With this year, I'm pretty sure Windows is a requirement, and this one seems to be Vista (or maybe 8).

There’s a lot of to gain from writing more efficient code "Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!"

I often wonder how much C02 emissions is caused by excessive power consumption due to inefficient code.
|
|
|
|
|
To answer the subject line question, yes, but there aren't enough actual smart software engineers that know how to write efficient code. And those that exist are doing so already.

After years of testing, Google now launched the featured snippet to web page highlight feature. In case it's hard to find what you just searched for in a document returned by the search.
And if Ctrl+F is too hard for you.
