I test-drove an AP2 car. After a disastrous ride in which it tried to hit two parked cars and a trashcan and wanted to drive off the road entirely, the sales person said, with a straight face, that it was great for stop and go traffic on 101. I'm a bit amazed they can currently sell cars.

Once on the freeway, your Tesla will determine which lane you need to be in and when.
In addition to ensuring you reach your intended exit, Autopilot will watch for opportunities
to move to a faster lane when you're caught behind slower traffic. When you reach your exit,
your Tesla will depart the freeway, slow down and transition control back to you.
That sounds nuts; it seems like a huge liability that they are putting AP2 in the hands of consumers when it can be more dangerous than just the average driver...
It would be funny if in the future they say something like "So your new Tesla has Level 5 autonomy, but because the car still has a driving wheel, even if you turn on the Level 5 Autopilot, you're liable if an accident happens."
sure, I didn't intend to say that recaptcha doesn't provide a useful service, I was just saying that they pioneers, in our field, in "exploiting" (for lack of a better term in my vocabulary) a human work to solve a problem while training for free a neural network that is going to be used in a separate line of business. I think it's just pure genius
