Andrew Ng, primary researcher of Baidu and co-founder of Google’s Deep Learning task, has actually taken the electrical car maker to task after a video appeared showing a Tesla driver plowing into the back of the truck while the automobile’s Autopilot system was engaged. Luckily, the mishap seemed more of a bump than a complete munch.
Andrew Ng Tweeted:-
It's irresponsible to ship driving system that works 1,000 times and lulls false sense of safety, then… BAM! https://t.co/cbmc8onoKu

The video was published by the European driver on CNET and tweet was noted on Electrek. Tesla continues to say that the Autopilot feature does not turn a Tesla into a self-driving car and does not enable the driver to abandon duty.
As we reported earlier, two drivers have blamed Autopilot for recent accidents in Utah and California.
