Tesla’s autopilot fooled by a simple trick

AutoExec Summary
A Chinese cyber security firm, Tencent Keen Security Lab, has demonstrated vulnerabilities in Tesla’s Autopilot by using interference stickers to mislead the system into wrong lane decisions. Despite these findings, Tesla maintains that such scenarios are unrealistic, asserting that drivers can override Autopilot at any time. The research raises concerns about the ease of executing such attacks, prompting calls for Tesla to enhance its software to better recognise and respond to deceptive inputs.
