Hot damn, didn't knew modern Tesla have so much computer power it could easily run VR in glorious 4k/120Hz
...or, apparently the article is full of shit and just throwing random numbers at the wall.

- AlotOfReading 4y agoA modern driverless vehicle like those being deployed by Waymo and Cruise will have considerably more compute than virtually any home computer. A pretty typical setup would be something like a high spec Xeon (or equivalent), 1-2 massive GPUs (or equivalent), lots of big FPGAs/ASICs, and some beefy networking on top, duplicated for redundancy. You wouldn't have to go very far back before the 'supercomputer' moniker became appropriate.
