Tesla autopilot starred in porn: there were no casualties

It was only a matter of time before someone had sex in a self-driving car for the first time. Last week, Taylor Jackson, a porn actress from Los Angeles, and her boyfriend may have become the first to implement this idea. They uploaded their video to Pornhub, where everyone could watch how the couple performed various sexual acts in a Tesla car moving on autopilot on the freeway.

Tesla autopilot starred in porn: there were no casualties

Tesla has always been careful to state that its semi-autonomous driver assistance system with Autopilot is "designed to be used in conjunction with an alert driver who has his hands on the wheel and is ready to take control at any time," so it cannot be considered a full-fledged Autopilot in the truest sense. this word. But this did not stop the young girl from taking a risk and testing the capabilities of Tesla for shooting an erotic video.

“Omg I made @Tesla the #1 search on Pornhub,” Jackson wrote in on your Twitter (link 18+), tagging Tesla founder Elon Musk.

The official PornHub Instagram account is also didn't pass by of this story, posting a screenshot from the video with the caption: “Let Elon know they didn't have two hands on the wheel with autopilot on.”

Soon after this, the founder of Tesla himself could not help but react, although his message was not addressed to anyone in particular, but from the context one can understand what is being said.

“Turns out there are more ways to use Autopilot than we thought,” Musk tweeted days after news of Taylor's video went viral.

In turn, in a comment to Elon’s tweet, Pornhub jokingly admitted that it was his fault.

In a statement to Business Insider, Jackson said she is new to the adult entertainment scene and has only recently started selling clips on Snapchat and other platforms. She and her boyfriend were on a car trip when he persuaded her to have sex in the car while it was on autopilot.

“When we finished, we joked that we had made great porn,” Taylor says. “We started looking for a similar video on Pornhub because we thought someone must have done something like this before us, but we couldn’t find anything.”

While the film has delighted Pornhub users, we can only hope it doesn't inspire copycats. Even though Tesla has stated that it plans to improve the Autopilot function and that accidents with it are quite rare, nevertheless, they still happened, and it is still premature to completely trust the lives of others and the existing technology.

Taylor claims she wasn't afraid of crashing because she had had positive experiences with Tesla's Autopilot before. “However, I accidentally hit the steering wheel, turning off the autopilot,” she says. “It happened on a straight road, but there were a lot of cars that were passing us at that moment.” But, apparently, the couple managed to react, returning control to the Tesla autopilot.

In April, Musk said that the Autopilot feature in Tesla cars could soon, perhaps as early as the end of this year, become safe enough for passengers and even surpass the driving safety of a human driver. “I could be wrong, but it looks like Tesla is way ahead of everyone,” said the American billionaire.

Despite this, it is unlikely that the company will publicly endorse the use of Autopilot without additional human supervision in the near future. Especially over such a long period of time to do everything that the young couple showed in their video. But Jackson says that if the opportunity arises again, they could likely make a sequel.

“The feedback has been great and the comments, for the most part, are very funny,” Taylor says. “Looking at it now, I feel like we could have done a better video. Maybe we'll do another one."
