Lex Fridman's recent Autopilot study has received a lot of attention, both for its provocative claims about how the Tesla driver assistance system is used in the real world and for its questionable methodology. This week, Dr Missy Cummings of Duke University joins the show to help walk us through the findings of other automation studies as well as the importance of sound methodology and peer review in studies like this. As a professor at Duke's Pratt School of Engineering, a sought-after consultant on human-automation interaction and the author of numerous peer-reviewed papers (not to mention one of the first combat-qualified female fighter pilots), Dr Cummings brings enormous authority to this complex and fascinating topic.
