Elon Musk: Smart Summon, AutoPark, and Tesla Autopilot
00:00:00.000 | - So Smart Summon and soon AutoPark
00:00:04.500 | takes on the full beautiful mess of parking lots
00:00:07.420 | and their human to human nonverbal communication.
00:00:10.820 | I think it has actually the potential
00:00:14.280 | to have a profound impact in changing
00:00:16.180 | how our civilization looks at AI and robotics
00:00:19.020 | because this is the first time human beings,
00:00:22.020 | people that don't own a Tesla,
00:00:23.260 | may have never seen a Tesla or heard about a Tesla,
00:00:26.060 | get to watch hundreds of thousands of cars without a driver.
00:00:29.740 | - Yeah.
00:00:30.580 | - Do you see it this way,
00:00:32.360 | almost like an education tool for the world about AI?
00:00:35.560 | Do you feel the burden of that, the excitement of that,
00:00:38.140 | or do you just think it's a smart parking feature?
00:00:41.160 | - I do think you are getting at something important,
00:00:44.460 | which is most people have never really seen a robot
00:00:47.660 | and what is the car that is autonomous?
00:00:50.180 | It's a four-wheeled robot.
00:00:51.500 | - Right.
00:00:52.340 | - Yeah, it communicates a certain sort of message
00:00:54.780 | with everything from safety to the possibility
00:00:58.060 | of what AI could bring.
00:00:59.620 | It's current limitations, it's current challenges,
00:01:02.740 | it's what's possible.
00:01:04.180 | Do you feel the burden of that,
00:01:05.420 | almost like a communicator, educator to the world about AI?
00:01:08.460 | - We're just really trying to make people's lives easier
00:01:12.180 | with autonomy, but now that you mention it,
00:01:14.580 | I think it will be an eye-opener to people about robotics
00:01:18.380 | because they've really never seen,
00:01:20.580 | most people have never seen a robot
00:01:21.740 | and there are hundreds of thousands of Teslas,
00:01:25.580 | won't be long before there's a million of them,
00:01:27.020 | that have autonomous capability
00:01:29.660 | and the drive without a person in it.
00:01:31.540 | And you can see the kind of evolution
00:01:34.300 | of the car's personality and thinking
00:01:37.800 | with each iteration of autopilot.
00:01:42.060 | You can see it's uncertain about this,
00:01:45.100 | or it gets, but now it's more certain.
00:01:49.100 | Now it's moving in a slightly different way.
00:01:52.020 | Like I can tell immediately if a car is on Tesla autopilot
00:01:55.180 | 'cause it's got just little nuances of movement,
00:01:57.500 | it just moves in a slightly different way.
00:01:59.940 | It's, cars on Tesla autopilot, for example,
00:02:02.300 | on the highway are far more precise
00:02:04.380 | about being in the center of the lane than a person.
00:02:07.300 | If you drive down the highway and look at how,
00:02:09.980 | where cars are, the human driven cars are within their lane,
00:02:14.300 | they're like bumper cars,
00:02:15.260 | they're like moving all over the place.
00:02:16.860 | The car in autopilot, dead center.
00:02:18.620 | (wind whooshing)
00:02:21.380 | (upbeat music)
00:02:23.960 | (upbeat music)
00:02:26.540 | (upbeat music)
00:02:29.120 | (upbeat music)
00:02:31.700 | (upbeat music)
00:02:34.280 | (upbeat music)
00:02:36.860 | (Thanks for watching)
