Jesse Lyu, CEO of Rabbit, faced a frightening experience when his Tesla's self-driving feature malfunctioned, steering onto train tracks. Initially impressed with Tesla's 'Full Self-Driving' technology, Lyu's trust was shaken during a routine drive when the car veered off course. The incident, which nearly led to a collision with an oncoming train, highlights ongoing concerns about the reliability of autonomous driving systems.
Despite the harrowing experience, Lyu shared his story not to criticize Tesla but to highlight a critical flaw in the self-driving technology. He emphasized that the autopilot algorithm should never allow a vehicle to enter a train track, regardless of human reaction. This incident underscores the need for improvements in AI-driven systems, as Lyu remains a customer invested in the technology.
