Feds investigate Tesla over inaccurate autopilot and FSD crash reports

engadget.com Unknown 2025-11-02 05:58:37

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) just announced an investigation into Tesla regarding its Autopilot and Full Self-Driving (FSD) systems, according to a report by Electrek. The road safety regulator says the probe involves inconsistencies with how the company reports crashes regarding the aforementioned systems. The NHTSA requires automakers to report crashes involving autonomous and driver assistance systems within five days of being notified of them. The agency claims

Humans intervened every 9 minutes in AAA test of driver assists

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-11-03 20:00:34

Advanced driver assistance systems—also known as ADAS—come in a few variations. Blind spot monitoring, collision warnings, and emergency braking act like a second pair of eyes and ears, monitoring the car's environment to warn the driver, or possibly intervene, if a crash looks imminent. Other systems are better thought of as convenience features—things like adaptive cruise control and lane keeping, which relieve some of the burden of driving. Among the newer of these is the traffic jam assist.

Hallucinations in AI Models: What They Mean for Software Quality and Trust

computer.org Laurel Tweed 2025-11-08 09:00:57

Modern businesses are rushing to adopt artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, but this rapid integration comes with unexpected challenges. A phenomenon known as “hallucinations” occurs in large language models (LLMs) and deep learning systems and threatens software quality and trust. These hallucinations occur when AI presents false information as fact. The damage extends beyond technical failures, as user trust erodes, brand reputations suffer, and ethical questions multiply.

Finding a Successor to the FHS

Finding a successor to the FHS [LWN subscriber-only content] The purpose of the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS) is to provide a specification for filesystem layout; it specifies the location for files and directories on a Linux system to simplify application development for multiple distributions. In its heyday it had some success at this, but the standard has been frozen in time since 2015, and much has changed since then. There is a slow-moving effort to revive the FHS and create a FHS 4.

If you’re a parent, an educator, or just someone who’s been to school, you’ve probably developed an opinion about generative AI in classrooms.

James Webb Finds Evidence of Free-Floating Planets So Large They Can Gather Their Own Planetary Systems

So much for heliocentrism.
