I'm not privy to the legit decisions around Teslas tech vs PR that I occasionally run across. Does this mean they are dedicated to only using traditional vision comparable to humans or is that just their focus at the current time? I can appreciate there's only so much tech that can be reliably developed for mass production at a given time but Elon also tends to make some odd choices/statements out of principle.
