The leap is really getting all that information from the various ADAS programs, and compiling them to make a correct decision with the AI (which doesn't even exist yet).

Right now, no system can make enough correct decisions with the information for anyone to feel like this is anywhere close to being ready for FSD at any stage, at least publicly (No idea what DARPA looks like with this kind of stuff).

Reply to comment by Individual-Jaguar885 in TIL a German scientist named Alfred Wegener was ridiculed in 1912 for advancing the idea that the continents were adrift. Ridiculed as having “wandering pole plague.” or “Germanic pseudo­-science” and accused Wegener of toying with the evidence to spin himself into “a state of auto-intoxication." by Hot----------Dog

Yes. It. Did.

You think that if it's not 100% effective, it's not working.

But that's not how science works, and especially not how health science works, and it's not ever what the science said.

If you stopped to actually read actual scientific studies from scientists that study this stuff, instead of memes based off of press releases from politicians, you would know what the veracity was, and how it worked for each of the vaccines (there were easy to read tables and everything). And when delta came out, they updated the tables, and surprise, it worked, just not as well, and the scientific releases reflected the changes, and the likely explanation with the information they had at the time (which turned out to be relitively accurate for the fly by the seat of your pants fast pace this stuff was going down).

This whole thing really highlighted the lack of health science literacy in the world, and the difficulty in fixing that issue.
