New research shows driverless car software is significantly more accurate with adults and light skinned people than children and dark-skinned people.

Misleading title?
How so?
because proper driverless cares properly use LIDAR, which doesn’t give a shit about your skin color.
And can easily see an object the size of a child out to many metres in front, and doesn’t give a shit if its a child or not. It’s an object in the path or object with a vector that will about to be in the path.
So change 'Driverless Cars" to “Elon’s poor implementation of a Driverless Car”
Or better yet…
“Camera only AI-powered pedestrian detection systems” are Worse at Spotting Kids and Dark-Skinned People
Ok, but this isn’t just about Elon and Tesla?
They tested multiple systems to see this problem.
First impression I got is driverless cars are worst at detecting kids and black people than drivers
I think that’s more it’s a headline that can be misinterpreted than misleading. I read it as it was detailed later, as worse are spotting kids and dark-skinned folks than at adults and light-skinned people. It can be ambiguous.
Eh, it’s not as bad as a typical news article title.
