Self-Driving car takes man to girlfriend's house by mistake
Self-Driving cars are slowly gaining prominence on our roads with many people opting for the AI-controlled journey experience than having to physically drive a car and brave the traffic and other drivers on the roads. This new-age luxury is currently being tested in various parts of the world and many governments have taken it upon themselves to draft legislation around it. Until they come into effect there is nothing to prevent these autonomous cars from taking passengers to their destination.
Various non-traditional car manufacturers have entered the race to perfect the self-driving car and are exploring all possible avenues to be the first one to make the perfect zero error truly automated vehicle. This includes tech companies like Google and Apple apart from other car manufacturers like BMW, Tesla and Audi. The technology being used varies between them and only time will tell which route will be the one that is later replicated at mass.
Elon Musk of Tesla has been making unfulfilled promises to develop self-driving Teslas since 2015 when he predicted that the technology would hit the roads in three years. Tesla already has an "Autopilot" feature that allows its cars to automatically adjust their speeds and steer within their lanes, though the function still requires driver supervision. This is a far cry from the truly autonomous function that we are all sold on.
He recently created a stir when he claimed that the true test of the longevity of the Tesla company would be reliant on how soon they can crack the autonomous code. This is because car manufacturers will realise that going forward, the margins on the sale of the car will be minimal compared to the cost of the high-end spare parts and after-sales service.
Google has been experimenting with cars with cameras loaded on top of them to somehow manage a way to integrate the data from the cars with the Google Maps function making it one of the front runners in this category. Apple has kept its project tightly under wraps as usual but we expect them to come up with something nothing less than mind-blowing.
