A large percentage of people who use Tesla's Autopilot driving assist system seem to think that the tech makes their car fully self-driving even though the software is far from capable of it.

Per a new survey from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), a whopping 42 percent of Tesla Autopilot drivers said that they feel "comfortable treating their vehicles as fully self-driving."That's so bizarre that we can barely believe it Autopilot can keep your car in a lane with simple braking and acceleration, but it's nowhere near a full self-driving system. In fact, even Tesla's somewhat more advanced Full Self-Driving (FSD) package, which drivers weren't polled on in the IIHS study, is still very much in beta testing.

"The big-picture message here," IIHS President David Harkey said in the organization's press release, "is that the early adopters of these systems still have a poor understanding of the technologys limits."

Those limits, to be blunt, include the fact that Autopilot moderequires drivers to be paying attention and driving albeit with assistance from the vehicle's software.

"Its possible that system design and marketing are adding to these misconceptions,"Harkey said, alluding to widespread criticism that Tesla has overstated the capabilities of its Autopilot and FSD tech.

The IIHS survey also found that 53 percent of people who use Cadillac's Super Cruise assisted driving software are chill with treating their vehicles as self-driving, while only 12 percent of those who use Nissan/Infiniti's ProPILOT Assist software feel the same.

As Harkey noted, there appear to be "clear differences among the three owner populations" as to what their cars are capable of and the survey's findings seem to back that up, too.

Notably, 40 percent of the Tesla and Cadillac assisted driving users said that they had been "locked out" of their vehicles, both types of which have lockout features that switch off or otherwise suspend the vehicles if drivers don't meet failsafe criteria.

While the survey notes that "some of those drivers confused a temporary suspension of the feature with the lockout procedure," that high percentage "nevertheless suggest[s] that many drivers failed to respond to warnings intended to ensure they were paying attention to the road or that they repeatedly violated the operating parameters often enough to trigger the lockout."

Nissan/Infiniti assisted driving users, on the other hand, don't have lockout failsafes to contend with but they do, per the survey, have attention reminders, and a high percentage of the users questions "reported that they had never even received an attention reminder."

There's clearly something going on with Tesla and Cadillac owners, in other words and we have a bad feeling that this could be a sign of things to come.

New scam just dropped!Phony Cosmonaut

Earlier this year, a phony astronaut scammed a woman into sending him a ton of money in a phishing con that left an elderly woman heartbroken and, presumably, broke.

As Japanese newspaper Yomiuri Shimbum reported last week, the scammer, who claimed he was a Russian cosmonaut, ended up taking 4.4 million yen the equivalent of about $30,000 from a 65-year-old Japanese woman after claiming he was on board the International Space Station and needed the money to hitch a ride back to Earth.

The grifter went as far as to claim he was in love with her and wanted to start a life with her in Japan provided, of course, that she pay for his ride home.

It's a heart-breaking tale that has left us wondering how anybody could possibly fall for such a ruse. You'd think it's common knowledge that astronauts usually pay for a return ticket up front.

The fake cosmonaut, whose name remains unknown, convinced the womanby name-dropping space agencies like NASA and JAXA, Japan's space agency.

The scammer also told the woman when he was out of contact for days at a time that the cellular service on board the ISS was spotty though, as Gizmodo notes,there is no cell service in space, and astronauts rely on an internet-connected IP phone.

Needless to say, astronauts also don't need to raise funds to get back to Earth, because that's usually included in the ticket price, which can easily reach tens of millions of dollars.

Eventually, after sending a total of five payments, the woman wised up and reported the scammer to the police, though it's unclear if the con artist was arrested or if the woman's money was recovered.

Unfortunately, this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened: in 2016, a man, who claimed to be Nigeria's first astronaut, said he was stuck on board a Soviet craft and needed $3 million to return home.

The lesson seems rather obvious: if someone tells you they're an astronaut and that they need your money, don't believe them there is no way anyone who's on board the space station is hurting for money that badly.

Theres tons of enthusiasm over self-driving cars. But nearly twenty years and some $100 billion since the first demos, the technology just isnt there yet.In fact, it may be further off from being fully and safely autonomous than were led to believe.

"Youd be hard-pressed to find another industry thats invested so many dollars in R&D and that has delivered so little," said self-driving pioneer Anthony Levandowski, in a must-read new interview with Bloomberg.

As the cofounder of Googles self-driving division, Levandowski is acknowledged by his peers as one of the key engineers that got the industry up and running. But in recent years,he's become persona non grata off the back of a calamitous lawsuit that virtually ended his career (but more on that later).

And he's not wrong. In spite of eyewatering sums spent on development over the past decade not to mention the almost comically enthusiastic support of Tesla CEO Elon Musk the internet is still frequently horrified by footage of the tech going haywire, screwing up, or facing yet another investigation from the government.

The problem? The industry still amounts to little more than a bunch of glorified tech demos, according to Levandowski.

"Its an illusion,"he told Bloomberg.

In demos, you see what the creators want you to see, and they control for things that they'd rather you didn't. To make it all seem high tech, monitors will show what the cars register in its camera, flashing with symbols and polygons to show that yes, the vehicle has some awareness of its surroundings.

What the demos won't show you,asBloombergreports, is a hilariously banal and longstanding problem for the tech: the fearsome left turn, or an "unprotected left turn," as the industry likes to insist. Basically,the elementary move ofcutting left across traffic when theres no light to make it easy has proved consistently difficult for AI drivers.

One notable incident Bloomberg cites is when Cruise LLC, a subsidiary of General Motors, recalled and updated the software of all of its self-driving cars in September after one of them couldnt properly pull off a left turn and crashed, injuring two.

With an AI especially one that has to drive a two ton vehicle you cant safely say that because it drove fine one time that it will in the future. To humans whove spent years growing up in the physical world with all of its structure and chaos, slight changes in the environment is the norm. Most of the time, we barely register them consciously and instead instinctively know whether to acknowledge or ignore.

To an AI, a slight change could be catastrophic. After all, how is it supposed to know what an appropriate response to a slight or sudden change is when it doesnt understand everything its looking at? How will it handle when it's overcast, when theres creatures teetering at the edge of the road, or when harmless birds plop down on the asphalt ahead and theres traffic behind?

"Why are we driving around, testing technology and creating additional risks, without actually delivering anything of value?" Levandowski asked in theinterview.

Of course, if anyone is going to have a gripe against the self-driving-car-o-sphere, itd be Levandowski.

He's credited by some for kick-starting the industry with his 2008 demonstration of a self-driving car delivering a pizza across the city of San Francisco, with a police escort in tow. That stunt demonstrated to the business world that the technology wasnt just a pipe dream, eventually leading to Levandowski co-founding Googles self-driving program in 2009, which today is known as Waymo.

But when Levandowski left Google and started working with Uber in 2016, things got dicey. By the next year, Levandowski and Uber were getting sued by Google, who alleged that Levandowski stole trade secrets to use in Ubers program. Then he got dumped by his new employers, forced into bankruptcy, and miraculously pardoned by then-president Donald Trump to avoid federal prison.

Still, hes not alone in his thinking.

"Its a scam," George Hotz, founder of the open source assisted driving company Comma.ai, told Bloomberg. "These companies have squandered billions of dollars."

Pretty much the entire industry hinges on its premise that self-driving cars will make our roads safer, and that humans are bad drivers. But as Hotz points out, in terms of how much we can intuit vs. an AI, humans are really good drivers.

Anecdotally and statistically, there are countless accounts of self-driving cars getting into accidents some fatal or bumbling into traffic contretemps that get laughed at online. Above all, there's no clear indicators that self-driving will deliver on its safety premise anytime soon.

Until we get there or ditch the tech altogether maybe we could at least require driving tests for self-driving cars in the meantime.

"NASA has proven we are serious as a defender of the planet."Planetary Defenders

Last month, NASA smashed its Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft into an asteroid's moonlet known as Dimorphos at 14,000 mph.

Now, NASA is declaring the demonstration triumphant, saying it successfully changed the space rock's trajectory in an historic demonstration that humanity could indeed save itself from a catastrophic asteroid collision.

"All of us have a responsibility to protect our home planet," NASA boss Bill Nelsonsaid during a Tuesday briefing. "After all, its the only one we have."

"This mission shows that NASA is trying to be ready for whatever the universe throws at us," he added. "NASA has proven we are serious as a defender of the planet."

The data is rolling in, NASA says, and the numbers look promising. Case in point, the impact appears to have changed the time it takes for Dimorphos to circle its larger asteroid parent Didymos by a full 32 minutes.

That's more than three times the initial goal of changing its trajectory by ten minutes.

"For the first time ever, humanity has changed the orbit of a planetary object," NASA Planetary Science Division director Lori Glaze told reporters.

A number of ground- and space-based observatories, including NASA's Hubble and James Webb telescopes, were able to capture the event, confirming the new trajectory.

Despite the resounding success, we still much to learn about deflecting any future asteroidthreats to Earth, cautioned NASA spokespeople other than Nelson.

"We should not be too eager to say that one test on one asteroid tells us exactly how every other asteroid would behave in a similar situation," said Tom Statler, DART program scientist at NASA, during the briefing.

"But what we can do is use this test as an anchor point for our physics calculations in our simulations that tell us how different kinds of impacts in different situations should behave," he added.

This isn't the version of the story that Musk recalled.Photobomber

Remember the time that Elon Musk tweeted that his 2014 photo with Jeffrey Epstein enabler Ghislaine Maxwell was the result of her having "photobombed" him at a Vanity Fair party? Turns out Musk might have left out a few details.

To recap, the years-old photo had resurfaced back in 2020, during the windfall of high-profile arrests, allegations, and disturbing revelations including about Maxwell, who was sentenced to prison for sex trafficking in June that followed Epstein's July 2019 arrest. At the time, actual law enforcement officers and netizen sleuths alike were busy trying to connect the many diabolic dots of Epstein's network of abuse, so when that 2014 picture cropped up, the SpaceX founder immediately attempted to distance himself.

"Don't know Ghislaine at all," the billionaire wrote back in July 2020. "She photobombed me once at a Vanity Fair party several years ago. Real question is why [Vanity Fair] invited her in the first place."

But according to new reporting from The New York Times, those claims are now in doubt. Per a staffer who was at the soire and took notes on the conversation, the two had a whole chat about aliens, humans living in a simulation, and oh yeah scrubbing oneself from the internet.

To be fair, it was Maxwell who allegedly ask Musk if it was possible to completely erase someone from the online world which, if you're a soon-to-be convicted sex trafficker who helped funnel underage girls into a network of systemic sexual abuse, might definitely be something you'd want to do. Musk reportedly responded with skepticism, and the conversation divulged into the more Musk-ian topics of aliens and simulations from there.

And also, to be clear, we're not promoting any Musk x Epstein x Maxwell conspiracies. Epstein and Maxwell rubbed shoulders with swathes of the world's wealthiest, both famous and not it was probably inevitable that they mingled, and apart from the Vanity Fair photo, unconfirmed claims of a SpaceX tour, and an alleged link between Musk's younger brother Kimbal Musk and Epstein, there's nothing substantial to support a deeper link between the two.

By several accounts, though, Musk had an acquaintanceship with both figures that was a bit more involved than the Tesla CEO would seemingly care to recall. His former narrative of that photo was certainly convenient but it sounds like it may have been a bit of a selective truth.

For those looking for fall family activities outside of Montgomery County, the National Air and Space Museum (NASM) will reopen its west end to the public on Oct. 14 with eight new exhibits after closing for six months due to ongoing renovations.

Free timed-entry passes are required for admission, regardless of age. Passes are available online on the NASM website. Individuals can reserve up to six timed-entry passes for their visits.

The original museum, built in the 1970s, was growing outdated with the worn carpet floors, gold embellishments, and standard print infographics.

What came of the $1 billion renovation is the essence of the atmosphere of space travel: technology and innovation.

The museum touts its 2022 makeover with ambient lighting, interactive infographics, and striking technological elements that transport attendees to a sci-fi movie upon entering. A giant LED banner illuminates the new entryway, shining light that reflects off metal fragments in the terrazzo floor that give a magical appearance as though one is walking among stars.

The new exhibits feature historical artifacts including the 1903 Wright Flyer, Neil Armstrongs Spacesuit, the Apollo 11 command module and more. Sci-fi fans can spot a full scale Star Wars X-Wing Fighter used in the movies on the second floor. With a keen eye, one can spot a familiar friend in an inconspicuous place.

The museum also opened its basement floor for the futuristic Mars Cafe with food, drinks, and seating. Next to the cafe are restrooms, nursing rooms, quiet rooms and a companion care room.

The costly renovation project, which began in 2018, is set to be completed in 2025, according to the Smithsonian. Every exhibit will be reimagined, said NASM Director Chris Browne. During a staff family event on Oct. 10, Browne noted the immense effort that continues to go into the construction project.

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos made a $200 million donation to the NASM in July of 2021, according to a Smithsonian announcement. $70 million contributed to the museum renovation, but the other $130 million is set to launch a new education center. The Smithsonian released five concept designs for the buildings in September, all showcasing wildly futuristic designs.

The museum is located on 6th Street and Independence Ave SW, Washington, DC. The entrance is on Independence Ave.

What is a city? demands New Yorks mid-century activist Jane Jacobs in David Hares new play, Straight Line Crazy. What should itbe?

Fast-forward 70 years from the era of Robert Moses that Hare evokes, and suddenly everyone is designing futuristic eco-cities. Nearly all of them, from Norman Fosters Amaravati in India to BIGs BiodiverCity in Malaysia, rely on control.

Consider Saudi Arabias proposed development, The Line. The brainchild of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and designed by United States-based Morphosis Architects, it is intended to pivot the country into a green and oil-less future. The Line the most dramatic element of a larger project, Neom is a 50-storey, double-slab mirror-glass city of nine million that slices unswerving through the desert for 170 dead-straight kilometres inland from the Red Sea.

Jacobs question is immediately called to mind. Can anything so terrifyingly regimented be called a city? Or is this just more straight-line lunacy? After a century of largely disastrous, top-down, carboniferous city-building, have we learnt nothing?

The relentless geometry is merely a clue to the power structure beneath. Power is key not just the kind of city it shapes, but who wields it. As Hares Jacobs goes on to demand: Why do we live in groups? What do we want from cities? And who decides?

Over the decades Jacobs became increasingly effective as Mosess antagonist, her questions raining like arrows against his implacable self-belief. What do people want? Who decides? Mosess answer: Me, of course. I decide. They want what I give them.

For half a century, from 1924 to 1975, Robert Moses occupied a dozen of New Yorks top planning posts, often concurrently. He used these extraordinary powers to drive hundreds of kilometres of motorway through and across the city he loved, demolishing tens of thousands of homes. Yet he never stopped believing that this was a miracle he bestowed upon the people, freeing them from ugliness and squalor and getting them to the beach.

The Line offers a direct analogy. Prince Mohammed bin Salman calls it a civilisational revolution that puts humans first a city that delivers new wonders for the world. And the images are seductive enough. Views between The Lines parallel walls show a broad, lush slot of layered gardens, vast aerial plazas and projecting glassy rhomboids, all stacked skyward. A central transit system connects one end to the other in 20 minutes and theres more abundant planting on the roof. Theres even a faux waterfall, beside which the humans are tiny in scale.

Yet the idyllic picnicky quality is surely an illusion. Even if the central slot is 140metres wide making the mirrored buildings either side just 30 metres deep its defining walls are almost four times that high. Light filtering to the bottom will be minimal at best more prehistoric canyon than Elysian field. As to the architecture, nothing about its jagged, glassy embrace invites dissent, disobedience or even choice.

As a vision of civilisational revolution, especially from a country where human rights protesters are still routinely jailed, led by a prince suspected of sanctioning the murder of dissenting journalist Jamal Khashoggi inside the Istanbul embassy, its all rather chilling.

And theres the rub. We are hive creatures, sure but hive creatures tormented and redeemed by dreams of free will. We crave both the safety of the swarm and the exhilaration of the solo flight. Our cities must reflect this. Most critically, public spaces must be truly public, open to all and actively nurturing difference and eccentricity.

The best cities, even those set out on a simple grid, are enablers not enforcers. They offer option and enticement as much as constraint, negative spaces as well as positive. A good city enables gathering, but it accommodates melancholy and refusal as readily as shared celebration and joy. Above all, it must offer a sense of freedom. Within the bounds of etiquette and law, the city should liberate your truest self.

The Lines website, as if anticipating such critique, proffers a fly-through vid in which a ponytailed and T-shirt-and-jeans-clad girl leaps, jogs and soars through the central space, trailing fingers through ponds and floating, weightless, into the celestial beyond. This is bizarre in a country where women, although now allowed to drive, can still be jailed for disobeying a male relative.

But there is a deeper conundrum too. History shows that some of the most glorious cities (think Paris, think Rome) have emerged from thoroughly oppressive regimes. Conversely, theres scant evidence that democracy can produce an urban fabric thats even vaguely likeable, much less an adequate response to climate change. If its zero-carbon we need, a command economy can be far more expeditious than anything needing majority support.

Neom bills itself as an accelerator of human progress. But how progressive is it, exactly? Already it is accused of radical elitism. The proposed flying cars, robotic servants and glow-in-the-dark beaches and vast floating gin palaces are marred by claims of displacement, persecution and murder from members of the 20,000-strong Huwaitat tribe who traditionally occupy the desert site.

All of which only makes democracys task more urgent. Its not simple. Because democracy is desire-based we must create not only the physical forms and systems of sustainable cities but also the metaphysical qualities beauty and choice, intricacy and walkability, social inclusion and genuine citizen engagement to make them objects of desire.

Telosa, a city for, initially, 50,000 proposed at some yet-undetermined desert locale in America, seems, at first glance, both less formally radical and more socially acute. Designed by Bjarke Ingels of the aptly named BIG architects, and funded by e-commerce billionaire Marc Lore, it is based on the familiar suburb-and-tower model that combines Ebenezer Howards 1902 Garden Cities of Tomorrow with Le Corbusiers tower-based The City of Tomorrow (1929) to give a density similar to San Franciscos.

In line with every eco-city clich, Telosa pictured as a spreading low-rise mat punctuated by bulging eruptions of organically shaped towers claims a mission and vision oriented to put people first. But there is a difference here. Describing itself as open, fair, inclusive, Telosa centres on equitism, where all land is owned by a community endowment focused on improving life for all citizens.

It sounds great, until you realise that such a community endowment is essentially what is meant by government. You realise, too, that this model has been tried, in Canberra circa 1945, and ends up no less controlling than anything else in Canberras case, it was control-by-road-engineer.

So it comes back to Jacobs question: who decides? Like Norman Foster, and even Morphosis, Bjarke Ingels is a fine architect, despite his global celebrity status. Ingels has produced some astonishing and good-hearted buildings, like his recent affordable spiral housing in Aarhus. But a city is not an artefact.

Design is important, yes. But the very idea of a masterplanned city indeed, the very word betrays the patriarchy beneath the skin. And the fact that BIG can seriously propose not merely a city but a master-planned planet Earth shows just how little weve evolved from control-by-male-primate. It is time we saw that as a problem, not the solution.

What, then, is the answer? To survive and undo climate change with civilisation in any way intact, we must somehow combine design solutions, which are inevitably top-down (implying control), with genuine participation. There are many ways to do this limit building size to enable citizen builders, encourage co-ops, supply land, and educate and engage the populace instead of excluding and pacifying them. But our efforts to listen and respond to people, and to nature, must be genuine and they must be immediate. If we are to fly free as well as stay safe, we must meet top-down with bottom-up, then equalise these forces to sit side by side.

"The resident sort of accepted my assessment but he said that I should have shown greater empathy towards him," said Mr Baey.

"Indeed, sometimes I might come across as being more eager to offer a solution than to listen. I thanked him for sharing an honest feedback and I will be more mindful in future."

In other rainwater-related news, downpours here have caused some lifts - and communications - to break down in Sengkang.

Workers' Party MP Louis Chua (Sengkang GRC) said his team had received feedback in recent months about recurrent lift breakdowns at a multi-storey carpark inthe Rivervale Delta estate.He acknowledged residents' frustration that one of the lifts hasnot been working for a while.

He said the open nature of the roof garden and lift landing meant that rainwater would flow into the lift well during periods of heavy rain, causing the lift to stop working.

The lift has been back in service since Oct 5, and Sengkang Town Council (SKTC) has installed barriers to stop water from entering the lift well, said Mr Chua.

"We are working with the Housing Boardand hope that they will be able to support SKTC with a longer-term solution to this issue, for greater cost effectiveness and prudence in our use of public funds, and more importantly, for the safety of all residents."

Summer may be over, but the color trend of the season is taking over autumnal fashion too.

Yesterday, Kylie Jenner headed out for Balenciaga's spring 2023 fashion show in Villepinte, France, in an outfit that put a futuristic spin on the seemingly ubiquitous Barbiecore trend.

She wore a hot pink iteration of a clingy shearling dress seen on Balenciaga's runway. The long-sleeved piece cinched at her waist and featured structured shoulders and a high neck. She accessorized with more Balenciaga statement pieces, including oversized sunglasses with a pointed white frame, black pumps, and an oversized black leather clutch.

Older sister Khlo Kardashian attended the fashion fete with Jenner. The Good American cofounder opted for an all-black look, appearing in a sleek windbreaker, shiny black trousers, and a pair of black shield sunglasses.

Jenner has been wearing multiple boundary-pushing ensembles this fashion month.

Recently, the mogul attended Business of Fashion's 500 gala during Paris Fashion Week in a lingerie-turned-eveningwear look. Accompanied by Mugler's creative director, Casey Cadwallader, Jenner wore a deconstructed version of a wrap dress from the French fashion house, featuring swaths of black lace and sheer mesh panels diagonally wrapping across her torso. Underneath the gown was a matching black lace catsuit. For a finishing touch, she wore strappy black heels.

Prior to that, Jenner continued the lingerie fashion streak by wearing a pair of white underwear to Loewe's fashion show. She layered the risqu look with a white tank top, black stockings, and a sweeping gray coat.
