Self-driving cars need the neural networks to run on computer that are orders of magnitude slower with a tiny percentage of the memory though.
If each self-driving car had its own supercomputer, things might look different.
- loandbehold 4y agoIs amount of compute an the issue preventing self driving cars from being viable? I don't think so. Putting supercomputer in the car won't bring self driving cars.
- macrolime 4y agoCompute limits what you can run realtime. Not saying self-driving cars would necessarily be here today with more compute, but comparing with language models, self-driving car computers could run only models like GPT-2. There's quite a big difference from that to ChatGPT. Is self-driving an easier problem that requires less than language models? Perhaps. language models somehow try to compress all the knowledge on the internet (not entirely successfuly yet), so maybe that somehow needs much more than self-driving, a single human can drive a car after all.
