Tesla CEO Elon Musk updated his timeline prediction for a fully self-driving car to two years. He also predicts that another year after that, cars will be significantly better drivers than humans. Almost exactly two years ago, Musk predicted that autonomous driving would be ready in two years, though he emphasized that it wouldn’t necessarily be commercialized due to regulation.
It does appear that his predictions are now pushing further out, which may reflect some issues Tesla has had with its self-driving program over the last two years, the main issue being the transition from Mobileye to Tesla’s own computer vision technology in Autopilot 2.0. There has also been some turnover in the computer vision/AI lead role at Tesla.
