How close to perfect do you believe the Tesla Autopilot System were when they ran over the motorcyclists even with with its allegedly required fully attentive drivers, (who allegedly truly know and understood the system), with their hands on the wheel and prepared to take over as allegedly required by the Autopilot System to operate?
You are either guessing or just parroting the hype when you imply that there is any evidence or quantitative data about any degree of perfection or error-free operation or comparison with real world human drivers of any of the current crop of so-called "self-driving" systems being tested on public highways.
