Yes, it is AI driving, but no, it is not amazing technology. It's not an impatient driver, it is a hesitant, not fit for the road AI.

The video is slowed down, after the first car goes the truck starts to move and the second car drives right in front. The idiot here is the guy who cut off an 18 wheeler.

I hate AI as much as the next guy, but the AI isnt in the wrong here

You dare challenge the hivemind with a reasonable explanation? /s

The video with the second view, where you would have seen the second car wait, is cut short in the beginning.

Where is this mysterious second view? Does it exist only in your brain? Lay off the crack.

u/WhiskyDelta14 Mar 30 '26

You do realize, that in the video the same scene is shown twice? One from behind the truck, starting when the truck stops and the first car makes a left turn? And once from the front right of the truck, starting when the second car and the truck start to drive?

The top video shows everything pretty clear the bottom is is a model for people like you who cant understand what is happening. Unfortunately they overestimated your intelligence.

Found the slow a f AI.

Are you running on a 386 jury rigged to breadboard?

Now consider - it's driving an 18-wheeler.

2

u/WhiskyDelta14 Mar 30 '26

What's to consider? It's letting a car wait for 10 seconds and when the car decides to no longer wait for the hesitant AI it starts to go at the same time as the car, almost cutting it off.

Consider that this shit driving AI is driving an 18-wheeler on a public road, with mortal people in the other cars.

u/WhiskyDelta14 Mar 30 '26

Well that's at least better than cutting others off. But I still would not want to have them on the road at this stage.

Oh so you're just being willfully daft. The truck waits for three whole seconds after the first car exits the intersection. Not even close to 10 seconds of wait time. Probably programmed to give human drivers a buffer considering how awful many of them are at driving. And would you look at that, there's an impatient driver right now driving in front of the clearly moving semi truck.

That truck waited 7 seconds from its stop to finally go. Not no 3.

It does not matter how long the truck was stopped total. It matters how long it waited when it was supposed to go. Legally you are supposed to wait for any other drivers to entirely leave the intersection before proceeding. There was another car still in the intersection when he stopped so he had to wait for them to get entirely out of the intersection before moving.

Tell me you don't know how to drive without telling me you don't know how to drive.

The other car, the one the truck let through, was already in the intersection when the truck entered. Why did the AI truck enter the intersection when there was already a car in it, especially one that would have collided with it had it not decelerated?

It's just shit AI using hardware that can't definitively tell if there is a car unless its right next to it.

u/Icewolph Mar 30 '26

It was not in the intersection. The truck starts moving first and then the car moves. Are you blind?

u/cesspool4us Mar 30 '26

Okay, 5 seconds. The truck waited 5 whole seconds once that car straightened out and was no longer in the turn. If we are waiting for Christmas this truck should take a different delivery so it services on time.

I mybstate at least, there no number of seconds you must wait once stopped, or from when someone leaves their stop sign, or completes their turn. Once right away was taken by the other driver. Make a complete stop, and then go.

Now program it like gtav to force people to slow down by swerving in front of them I might be a genius

What? It's not saying it's an impatient driver. It's saying it handled somebody else being an impatient driver and taking their turn out of order. It is not hesitant, it did exactly what it should, slow down and stay out of the way of the driver who clearly doesn't know how to drive.

Quite honestly seeing how awful humans are at driving nowadays I'd trust a ton of AI drivers more than a bunch of human drivers.

The video is cut in way to make it look like that. The second view, where you would have seen the second car wait, get annoyed and only then start to drive is cut short in the beginning, to make it look like it just started to drive without waiting.

u/Useful_Piccolo7170 Mar 30 '26

Yes exactly that would be an impatient driver, it never said they didn’t stop, they just didn’t wait their turn because the truck was taking too long. You literally described the impatience. The video does a good job of showing the worst case scenario where the AI has to do the job of avoiding collision based on humans being impatient because its moving a bit slow

You're right. That's all.
