If object detection is crappy then how do they plan to make Tesla’s drive themselves?

- SavantIdiot 5y agoYou're on the right track and don't even know it! ;-P That's why the current Tesla has like Five LIDARs, two radars, 16 cameras, and lots of traditional algorithms that aren't NNets. (I don't know the counts, but my point stands.) I've spent 5 years on this with tier 1 automotives, I don't think ADAS5 will happen in my lifetime, and it definitely won't be due to neural nets: It is FAR more likely autonomy will be achieved by billions of IoT sensors in a mesh, guiding vehicles: e.g., lane sensors, weather sensors, c2c (car-to-car telemetry), c2i (car-to-infrastructure telemetry, like traffic lights), rather than some fancy in-car brain-emulation.

- thewarrior 5y agoVery interesting. But hasn’t Elon been promising even older Tesla owners a pure software upgrade to “Full Self Driving”
