How many years of documenting lying grifters does it take for people to accept that maybe they just might be lying grifters?

Are US citizens really this stupid? Yes and yes.
Never going to happen until they admit they need lidar and probably about 3 other sensors we don’t have yet. Using a 2d camera isn’t going to cut it.
How long does it take for Elmo Musk to quietly correct one of his mistakes?
I feel they’re going to lack LIDAR for a looong time to protect his ego.
a) need other and probably better sensors b) need to admit true self driving is a heck of lot more complicated. (consider all the things most drivers subconsciously handle with barely a thought that in fact a computer would have to “see,” acknowledge and compute if action is needed and possibly act on while also dealing with the multitude of other factors . They have things mistaking big obvious things and hitting them. The common analogy of a plane autopilot is apples to oranges. The sky is more or less empty: some birds, weather…but air traffic controllers work very hard to keep planes a fair distance away from each other.
