Autonomous vehicles Memes

Someone out here really said "self-driving cars? Easy peasy!" and dropped the most catastrophically naive code snippet known to humanity. Just casually solving autonomous vehicle engineering with if(goingToHitStuff) { don't(); } like they just cracked the Da Vinci Code. Tesla engineers spending BILLIONS on neural networks, LiDAR systems, and complex decision trees while this genius over here is like "have you tried... just not hitting things?" Revolutionary. Groundbreaking. Nobel Prize incoming. This is the programming equivalent of telling someone with depression to "just be happy" – technically correct in theory, absolutely useless in practice. Because yeah, if only those silly engineers thought to add a don't() function! Problem solved, pack it up everyone, autonomous driving is DONE.

Ah, the classic "cameras ftw" approach to autonomous driving. Nothing says "trust me with your life at 70mph" like removing redundant safety systems because they occasionally disagree. It's like firing the co-pilot because sometimes they suggest a different route than the GPS. Next update: replacing airbags with motivational stickers that say "just don't crash." For the uninitiated: LiDAR uses laser pulses to measure distances, radar uses radio waves, and cameras use... well, cameras. Most autonomous vehicle experts believe multiple sensor types provide crucial redundancy. But who needs backup systems when you've got vibes?

The "future of autonomous vehicles" in a nutshell. Companies hype up their "AI-driven" robotaxis while quietly outsourcing the actual driving to some guy with a gaming steering wheel in a cubicle halfway across the world. It's the tech industry's version of the Wizard of Oz – "pay no attention to the underpaid contractor behind the curtain!" Next time your self-driving car makes an unusually human decision like slowing down for a squirrel or taking that shortcut through the alley, just know there's probably a dude named Rajesh getting paid $5/hour to make sure you don't crash into a tree. Silicon Valley's dirty little secret: most "AI solutions" are just humans in digital disguise.
