The problem here is that it records everything. That could make insurance fraud harder than with a conventional vehicle. However, these ones do have way less sensors than other robotaxis because this is a Tesla and therefore very stupid. From what i could find out with a quick search, it has one internal and one external microphone and 9 cameras (2 at the front turn signals, 2 at the b column, 2 above the windshield, one in the front bumper, one for the interior and just one facing rearwards). No radar, no lidar, no microwave or ultrasound sensors.

The Musk cultists point out how cyberpunk this is, but in any cyberpunk universe this is obviously the shit option only used by low level NPCs.

I understand. It is a machine with sensors and a complex algorithm that drive it and recording devices around it.

It is fallible and there probably are ways to exploit this fallibility despite the fact you are being recording. Exploits in ways that leave the thing legally liable. I'm thinking something that you might say, "Well, yeah, I just figured the thing would stop/turn/obey a traffic law like a human being would but instead it hit me/my car," type shit.
