Tesla 'very close' to full self-driving, Musk says:
Tesla will be able to make its vehicles completely autonomous by the end of this year, founder Elon Musk has said.
It was already "very close" to achieving the basic requirements of this "level-five" autonomy, which requires no driver input, he said.
Tesla's current, level-two Autopilot requires the driver to remain alert and ready to act, with hands on the wheel.
But a future software update could activate level-five autonomy in the cars - with no new hardware, he said.
Regulatory hurdles could block implementation even if the remaining technical hurdles are overcome.

>This is actually a global problem. Calling for a global solution.
Every time I hear this phrase I reach for my revolver. Unfortunately I don't own one.
Take a hypothetical dangerous virus. It is a global problem, the solution can perfectly be local. In fact the mayor of a place who simply closed up the streets in and out his town and quarantined/sanitized the incoming people/stuff dealt with 0 cases. Meanwhile the global solution embodied by the OMS, CAUSED AVOIDABLE AND INHUMAN DEATHS AND QUICKENED AN ECONOMIC COLLAPSE.
The phrase is a slogan. The solutions are effective or ineffective, sustainable or unsustainable. Whether they are global or not is relevant only to those wanting to exercise power. If you're not one of them, do not advocate them KTHXBYE
