    a more genuine take would have included a series of scenarios (e.g. drunk/distracted/tired driving)

    I agree. they did tesla dirty. a more fair comparison would’ve been between autopilot and a driver who was fully asleep. or maybe a driver who was dead?

    and why didn’t this news article contain a full scientific meta analysis of all self driving cars??? personally, when someone tells me that my car has an obvious fault, I ask them to produce detailed statistics on the failure rates of every comparable car model

      why does it need to become a specious comparison for it to be valid in your expert opinion? because those comparisons are worthless.
