WIRED / RJ interview: Gen 2.5 Autonomy + What Happens if R2 Flops

This is what you are not understanding. The car does not perform the entire DDT even when it is driving

Mechanical failures are 100% outside of the scope of the car's DDT. Minimum risk maneuvers too. Those are only for level 4

you are performing this task of identifying and responding to mechanical failures (without warning or handoff) while the car is driving.

The argument is you cannot read a book or movie (or even do anything other than look out the windshield) to 100% properly do this task

The argument on the flipside is that you can feel when your wheel falls off or your suspension gives out

One thing that I would caution you about is not to get too caught up in the current L3/L4 requirements as these are subject to change.

The assumption they seem to be making with L3 is that it would remain as a traffic assist. The current requirements make sense for a traffic assist system. For example the MRM that MB's L3 system will perform is to stop in the lane. It does this if the takeover request is ignored. This requirement doesn't make sense for a full highway speed system because that could be extremely dangerous. If it did become full highway speed I imagine that the requirements would change.

I would go as far as declaring the old traffic assist L3 as dead.

Where in its place are advanced L2 systems that can advance to L3 or L4.

I don't think it really matters who wins as the rest will quickly follow.

Rivian Sued Over Driver+ Hands-Free Driving Claims on Gen 1 R1T and R1S

A class action lawsuit filed in California accuses Rivian of misrepresenting the autonomous driving capabilities of the first-generation R1T and R1S, claiming the company promised Level 3 hands-free driving the Gen 1 vehicles will never deliver. Here is what the complaint alleges, plus why this one hits differently with R2 and Autonomy+ on the horizon

It's level 2, and then advancing to level 4.

Rivian advertising L3 is weird only if they want to beat tesla to something and claim 3 is better than 2
