Government tipping the scales to help their capitalist mates seems to be exactly how capitalism works.

Cats would rat you out on a whim if they had the skills.

Do you understand that the whole point of self driving cars is to not have humans with eyes and depth perception doing the driving?

Computers can't even reliably differentiate between B and 8.

We use “cameras” for object detection

lol

My kid tried to drive it into a hedge and it wouldn't let them. Not the same as accelerating from across the road at a house but also the car makes no self driving claims.

if you point it at a house and floor the accelerator from a few hundred meters away?

I don't know for sure and I can't think of a good way to test. It certainly wouldn't hit it when "driving itself" with smart cruise control or if I tried to drive into it from a few metres away.

If your misunderstanding of how a machine works is that fundamental I don't think there's a reason to continue this.

The same applies to stopping it from driving full speed into a house.

It really really really doesn't

I want vehicles that rely on cameras for detecting obstacles to be banned.

Anything that uses reasonable object detection methods should be banned if it lets you drive into a house. My Kia won't let me drive into a house.
