Tesla engaged in deceptive marketing for Autopilot and Full Self-Driving, judge rules
L3 autonomous cars coming to street near you soon - in China!
China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) announced that Changan Automobile and BAIC were given the go-ahead to build L3 autonomous electric vehicles (EVs) that would allow drivers to be hands off in some circumstances.
The cars, both pure EVs, will be allowed to navigate streets and highways only in designated areas. With L3 drivers are required to be fully alert to ensure that they can intervene under any circumstances. For reference, L5, or fully autonomous driving, means a vehicle does not need human intervention under any circumstances. https://www.scmp.com/business/china-business/article/3336522/beijing-approves-first-two-l3-autonomous-cars-leap-towards-hands-driving

Waymo to issue software recall over how robotaxis behave around school buses
The NHTSA has flagged over 80 incidents where Tesla's FSD reportedly ran red lights and wandered into wrong lanes. Looks like 'Full Self-Driving' still has some 'beta' quirks to iron out. Are we testing AI, or is AI testing our patience?
