The mapping problem keeps getting brought up (often by Tesla enthusiasts).
It just doesn't seem like a huge problem? If you have cars equipped with high resolution Lidar and cameras, mapping new routes seems like it ought to scale as the fleet is expanded.
This problem seems embarrassingly parallel.

- wstrange 2y agoThe fleet car drives very slowly the first time, perhaps under supervision of a human. The point is - you have a massive fleet of cars with all the right sensors to create a high resolution map.
