We are developers 2018: Don't trust Elon Musk

Last week at the We are developers 2018 Vienna conference, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak had the chance to address 4,000 attendee’s life and almost all of the 8,000 attendees were watching the keynote via a video link overflow. What caught our eye was that Wozniak has a lot of disagreements with Musk.

It was a quite proud moment for me, as the prominent engineer mentioned almost all the key points that I have been preaching for the last two and a half years.

Wozniak pointed out that Tesla has a consistency problem. He is one of the people who had a chance to own a Model S with a Mobile Eye hardware and then swapped it for the one using Nvidia hardware and multiple camera setup.

Woz mentioned that some things that worked really well on the first car didn’t work on the second car and, more importantly, that Elon has given unrealistic predictions about when the features will become available.

Elon has been promising full autonomous self driving since 2016 but this is yet to be launched. Now with all the fuzz about some crashes and fatalities, governments will start looking a bit deeper into - and - likely further complicate things.
