from my current understanding, this is extremely likely to be the case. it’s an incredibly unsafe system that doesn’t scale beyond small-scale testing, but this is most likely the only practical way to divide the attention of a relatively small number of safety drivers between multiple cars that need constant correction

given their struggles with GPU overheating (which’d eliminate the car’s autonomy entirely), I wonder how many remote safety driver systems are remote commands injected into an OEM driver assist (ACC/LKAS/automatic lane change) package, since those come with the car and are rather a lot more rugged against obvious shit like heat than the bullshit a bunch of fresh grads with zero automotive experience bolted to the car
