Hey that's my post
To further elaborate, AV companies have to report how often they disengage their vehicles, but they don't have to report how often a remote operator takes over control, or gives some input to the vehicle. I've been ranting on Spaces about how this is ridiculous and I guaranteed they were having much higher incident rates when considering remote interventions.
According to this (paywalled) NYTimes article, some employees are claiming it's once very 5 miles

I actually cannot believe it's even this bad, that must be an exaggeration. But the point remains - these AV companies are grossly exaggerating their capabilities to "fake it till they make it" and suck on that sweet, sweet, investor funding so they don't go bankrupt. They cannot be trusted.
The emporer has no clothes.
Meanwhile Tesla FSD is walking around with a big
that's still learning to control itself, but no faking.
