He painted a hyper-realistic fake tunnel on a wall to see if Tesla’s self-driving system would fall for the illusion. And it did. Just like Wile E. Coyote chasing the Road Runner, the car’s sensors were briefly fooled into thinking there was an actual road ahead. It’s a brilliant (and hilarious) way to highlight how autonomous tech can still be tripped up by clever visual tricks. (Via: @markrober) #his
