Tesla is poised to initiate trials for its autonomous taxi service, dubbed Robotaxi. However, Andrej Karpathy, the former director of AI at Tesla, has sounded a note of caution, asserting that the realm of autonomous driving remains far from fully resolved, and the advent of fully autonomous vehicles is still some way off. Karpathy, a prominent figure in AI, previously spearheaded the development of neural networks for Tesla's Autopilot and Full Self-Driving systems. He maintains that while companies such as Waymo are currently deploying autonomous vehicles in various locations, this does not signify the maturity of autonomous driving technology. These systems still heavily rely on remote control and human intervention. Karpathy underscores the immense complexity of the software and argues that the evolution of AI agents requires more time, with the coming decade poised to be the era of AI agents.
