Elon Musk’s Tesla is going through tough times. Yesterday, May 12, Chinese safety regulators ordered EV makers to recall 1.1 million vehicles due to problems with their regenerative braking systems. That comes after Tesla was forced to recall 363,000 vehicles after U.S. safety regulators found their cars were not following the speed limit at intersections. doubts were raised. To make matters worse, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak criticized Tesla’s AI technology in a recent interview, saying it could kill people. Wozniak famously co-founded Apple with the famous Steve Jobs.
From friends to enemies?
In an interview with CNN, Wozniak said he admires Elon Musk for the role he played in luring consumers to electric vehicles. But he emphasized that those things are often overshadowed by other antics, such as exaggerating the capabilities of Tesla’s fully autonomous and driver-assisted driving technology.
Steve Wozniak criticizes Tesla AI
“I actually believed those things, but it’s far from reality. And we need research that AI fails, gets a lot of bills, and tries to kill you at every opportunity.” If so, buy a Tesla,” he said.
where did the mask go wrong
In the past, Elon Musk has told regulators that Tesla cars with “fully autonomous driving” are safer than humans, and that humans rarely need to touch the controls while fully autonomous driving is in effect. He claimed he could prove it. But it hasn’t been able to deliver a car that satisfies all of the regulator’s concerns.
Fear of AI
Wozniak’s comments about Musk and Tesla were only a small part of the entire interview, but much of it revolves around the fact that “the godfather of AI” Jeffrey Hinton has resigned from his job at Google in protest. Based on this, it was directed to concerns over AI. against its rise.
Wozniak and Musk are on the same team when it comes to the unprecedented rise of AI. The two previously signed an online petition calling for an indefinite moratorium on all AI technology development until AI-related regulations are amended.
In an interview, the Apple co-founder said: “When powerful technologies are introduced, we should think that almost all technologies bring good and bad to us, and we need to take responsibility and study these things and kind things. I believe there is.” It’s about preparing people for what’s to come, and perhaps taking steps to make sure it doesn’t get too terrifyingly bad. ”
