>As NHTSA found, the Automatic Emergency Braking feature on the Tesla—in common with just about every other AEB fitted to other makes of cars—was not designed in such a way that it could have saved Brown's life. The machine learning algorithms that underpin AEB systems have only been trained to recognize the rear of other vehicles, not profiles or other aspects
Unfortunately, a poorly designed user experience lulled the driver into behaving foolishly. That's why the headline mentions UX.
Did it? Or did the driver know what they were doing and not care? I don't think it's responsible to make such assumptions about the driver's reasoning.
Had it been the same for all systems then the argument could be made that the current concept in general is flawed in this iteration but because the others demand a lot more driver involvement the problem pivots to being a Tesla problem, not an semi-autonomous driving problem.
