>“However, in three of these meetings, internet connectivity issues likely precluded or hampered them from seeing the Full Video clearly and fully,” the report states.
It sounds like they're having issues with the meeting platform rather than with internet on the self-driving cars themselves. Dismissing an entire company's development efforts because of an IT SNAFU makes little sense. It'd be like dismissing the efforts of OpenAI because they had issues setting up a projector at a conference.
The internet issues were when showing the video live over screen-sharing in the briefings. Cruise did send NHTSA a copy of the full video later the same day:
> Just as the NHTSA meeting was concluding, at 10:59 a.m., a NHTSA employee sent Cruise an email titled “File request: CBI Cruise Pedestrian Incident 10/2/23” with a link to upload video of the Accident. At 1:40 p.m., Cruise sent the Full Video to NHTSA.
