Over the past month, there's a fairly good chance you have the video. It is clip after clip, essentially bashing Tesla's self-driving technology for a full minute.
It turns out it is a political ad from U.S. Senate candidate Dan O'Dowd. If you're confused, you're not alone.So you're running for US Senate, but then the message is ' Tesla software is terrible', do I have that right?Here's the thing. O'Dowd isn't wrong about the problems with Tesla's Autopilot. If you've been in one, you know firsthand that it can make some unexpected maneuvers.
"I view this as the biggest problem of our time, even bigger than nuclear weapons," he told KPIX."My slogan is making computers safer for humanity. We gotta find those computers, we gotta disconnect them, We got a reprogram then, So that they can't be hacked, so they won't fail and leave us defenseless.": Well, when they bring down the power grid everyone will be homeless. You won't be able to go anywhere. I just think it's a more important issue.
Nolan Higdon is a history and communications professor at CSU Eastbay, and did not mince his words about O'Dowd's wealth. "I want to be polite about this because I think he's a good person and his heart's in the right place," San Francisco State Professor Joe Tuman added."But it's demonstrating a bit of naïveté about how politics work."
