YouTuber Mark Rober is facing inaccurate feedback to a recent video describing a spectacular “test” of the Autopilot feature of Tesla – with critics claiming to be an orchestrated trick to damage Elon Musk’s motorist.
In a video posted on his YouTube channel over the weekend, Rober’s Tesla Model y seemingly failed to discover a Wile E. style wall painted to look like a street-collar and destroying a mannequin created to look like a child.
But a lidar -equipped vehicle featured in the same video seemed to pass the test in flying color. Rober praised the Lidar Luminar Company so often throughout the segment that viewers questioned whether the footage had been moved as part of a detailed ad.
“Tesla has to withdraw data from the car itself and tell us exactly what happened,” a user wrote in a post on X.
“I know what the data will show, that this was a great deal of fraud. But I suspect Mark wants us to see all this,” the user continued, adding that Musk and Tesla “have to sue the pants from this boy.”
Representatives for Rober’s company did not immediately respond to a comment request.
In the video, Rober said he was targeting Tesla on the wall in autopilot, going 40 miles per hour “to see if Tesla’s autopilot can be deceived because he is famous only on simple cameras to navigate the world than much more expensive technology.”
Throughout the test, former NASA engineer and Apple product stylist estimated “decorated machines that use more advanced technology”, such as vehicles powered by Lidar Luminar Vision-based technology. The video also included luminary employees and goods.
The fuel theories that the video was secretly sponsored, Luminar highlighted the video on its corporate site – later eraseing it when the reaction is revealed, according to Drive Tesla Canada, a news page about Music’s motorist.
“Thanks to the luminar who allowed us to test their car -equipped car,” Rober said in the title under the video on YouTube. “They provided the vehicle for test purposes, but no compensation was given, and this is not a paid promotion.”
Critics also dealt with the video title: “Can you cheat a self-driving car?” Rober claimed that he engaged Tesla’s autopilot feature, which is technically a driver’s help feature-means that the driver should pay attention and be ready to take over a way of self-direction.
Social media users also tried to use holes in the alleged use of Rober Autopilot feature.
Some argued that the feature did not seem to be engaged at the time of the collision, as the images of the central screen do not show the blue lines of stories and the rainbow road showing that the autopilot is on.
Rober responded by posting “raw footage” by the clash to distribute rumors, writing in a post on x that he is not sure “why disconnect 17 frames before hitting the wall, but my feet were not touching the brake or gas.”
But the raw images fueled even more review by Tesla Fanatics who stressed that the original footage showed autopilot engaged in 39 miles an hour – and the new clip showed that the system activated in 42 miles per hour, indicating that there was a lot of proof.
Social media users speculated that the video was designed to further damage Tesla’s image such as Musk’s close links to the White House through the government efficiency department sprayed investors.
Viewers also took into account the discrepancies with a Google Pixel smartphone used throughout the test.
Rober supposedly uses the phone to film some of the footage inside the cars. But social media users asked why the “G” logo at the back of the phone remains vertical even when the tool is horizontal.
The strange detail led to speculation that Rober used another iPhone or smartphone and just photographed “G” on top. The reason for this is unclear, as there is no mention of Google as a sponsor in the video or title.
The car manufacturer has faced protests and vandals among traders across the country and suffered a hit in its shares, which has fallen about 40% so far this year.
