See the timeline a few posts up. That’s the problem - real world testing. Not laboratory testing, There should be a test regimen to ensure the software handles border conditions, sensor failures and other dangerous conditions before it’s allowed to do “real world” testing. We all see how Tesla’s autopilot has handled real world testing. Anyone who has ever done software for a living (and that includes me) can tell you how dangerous this is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasRedneck Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 My business IT guy is shaking his head over all this. He points out that NASA - nor NSA - has been 100% successful in stopping hackers, who crack systems just to say they did. Now, give someone an axe to grind - or terroristic tendencies - and this could turn into a nightmare no one can imagine. His opinion is it isn't "if" - it's "WHEN". And as already noted...people puking, boarding sick - even just the run-of-the-mill vandalism....I don't think it's going to end well, but we'll see.

The 2 engineers who became world famous for hacking a Jeep Cherokee 6 years ago and demonstrating how they did it at a Black Hat conference, Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek, work at GM Cruise now. Here is a video where Kari Byron (cast member from the TV Show Mythbusters) interviews them about cybersecurity for GM Cruise vehicles.

My IT guy just stopped laughing.....as a registered "White Hat", he knows his way around things - not only is it going to be possible, it already is on several different levels. In his words, "If it connects, it can be hacked." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rperez817 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 GM Cruise is now expanding its Level 4 autonomous robotaxi service to Austin, Texas and Phoenix, Arizona. GM expects that by 2025, its Cruise business unit will reach $1 billion in annual revenue. GM's self-driving car business Cruise expands to 2 more cities (freep.com) Ford is already testing its own robotaxi service in Austin through its Argo AI subsidiary, so GM's announcement should make for a good competition.
