US transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg on Monday said human drivers must pay attention at all times after videos emerged of people wearing what appeared to be Apple’s recently released Vision Pro headset while driving Teslas.
Buttigieg responded on Twitter/X to a video that had more than 24m views of a Tesla driver who appeared to be gesturing with his hands to manipulate a virtual reality field.
Despite their names, Tesla’s assisted driving features – Autopilot, Enhanced Autopilot and Full Self-Driving – do not mean the vehicles are fully autonomous, Buttigieg said Monday on social media.
“Reminder – ALL advanced driver assistance systems available today require the human driver to be in control and fully engaged in the driving task at all times,” Buttigieg said.
When HMD becomes permanently part of their face upon airbag deployment they might finally realize it was a bad idea.
Realization might only last for about a millisecond or two.
At some point, doctors are gonna tell a guy, “your face is already irreparably damaged by these AR devices in your sniff… just as an experiment, why not improve the enhancements surgically?” And that’s how cyberpunk 2077 gets on the rails.
Building a new 6 Million Dollar Man.
Except that’s what you now have in medical debt.
Eeesh I didn’t mean to inspire anyone haha
I am more concerned about the innocent people who will pay for the assholes “bad idea” will their lives.
After seeing some people having their face branded with their car logo from the wheel the the airbag fired… actually this might be better protection…
