Mit den #TeslaFiles kommt #Musk in Erklärungsnot.

100 GB an Daten, 23.398 Dateien über Kunden, Mitarbeitern, Geschäftspartnern und Projekte von #Tesla konnten ohne Probleme von Mitarbeitern eingesehen, kopiert und weitergegeben werden, obwohl sie datenschutzrechtlich keinen
Zugriff haben sollten.

So ein leichtsinniger Umgang mit den Daten sollte Mitarbeiter, Kunden und Geschäftspartner beunruhigen. Die deutsche Datenschutzbehörde, so wie die in Den Haag wurde bereits verständigt.

Allerdings könnte auch der Inhalt der Dateien für Tesla zu einem
Sprengsatz werden.

So lässt sich ablesen, daß es mit dem Autopiloten - DER Hoffnung von Tesla - immer noch massive Probleme gibt.
- 2.400 beschleunigten Fahrzeuge von selbst.
- 1.500 bremste der Autopilot nicht
- 1.000 mal kam es zu einem Unfall

Musk scheint auffällig still

#teslafiles #autopilot - Epilogue: Courage to Take Risks

"Phantom braking, leaving traces on the road. Need help as soon as possible because I don't feel comfortable driving again."
To this day, Karl has received no explanation. The tables from the Tesla Files as of March 2022 list, among other things, the model, vehicle number, mileage, and the software installed in the car, as well as the status of the respective incident.
In the corresponding column, Karl's incident is marked as "closed". Next to the accidents of Manfred Schon and the doctor from California, it says "unresolved".

#teslafiles #autopilot - Chapter 7: Just Don't Put Anything in Writing

"Our car just stopped on the highway. That was pretty scary."
How did the company handle complaints? The Tesla Files shed light on this as well. The files show that employees have precise instructions for communication with customers. The prime directive apparently is: provide as little opportunity for attack as possible.
For each incident, there are bullet points for "technical review". The employees who enter this review into the system regularly make clear that the report is "for internal use only".

#teslafiles #autopilot - Chapter 6: Massive Pile-Up in the Tunnel

"Frequent phantom braking on two-lane highways. Makes autopilot almost useless."
How big is the risk for Tesla drivers? The search for an answer to this question leads to a converted cow barn in the Bavarian district of Landsberg am Lech.
This is where Jürgen Zimmermann has his workshop. Up to 700 Teslas roll onto his lift each year, he says. Zimmermann films as he inspects the cars, removes wheels and curses axle shafts. Hundreds of thousands watch his clips on Youtube.

#teslafiles #autopilot - Chapter 5: Authorities Target Tesla's Autopilot

"When my wife was out with our baby today, the car suddenly accelerated out of nowhere."
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is the American counterpart to the Federal Motor Transport Authority. Among other things, the agency is responsible for road safety.
The NHTSA only approved Tesla's Autopilot on the condition that the driver constantly monitors the road conditions to be able to intervene in an emergency.

#teslafiles #autopilot - Chapter 4: In the Long Run

"Vehicle collided with a deer on the highway while the autopilot was activated."
In August 2022, the new book by Scottish philosopher William McAskill was published: "What We Owe to the Future. The One-Million-Year View." Elon Musk endorsed it, saying, "Worth reading. This aligns quite closely with my philosophy."
McAskill is a proponent of so-called "longtermism," a school of thought popular in Silicon Valley. It teaches that each person should primarily align their decisions with how they will impact the world in the distant future.

#teslafiles #autopilot - Chapter 3: Death in a Tesla

"Autopilot failed (did not brake) and I nearly ran into someone at 65 km/h."
Indeed, in accidents, the question of blame is becoming more frequent: Did the driver make a mistake? Or did his autopilot let him down? In the US, the first jury trials are soon to start - due to fatal accidents that the driver assistance system may have caused.
In a particularly high-profile case, a 27-year-old driver is facing manslaughter charges because his Model S crashed into a Honda Civic in a suburb of Los Angeles on December 29, 2019.
