You can train those models all you want, the sensors still have some physical limitations. A regular camera operating in the visible spectrum won't be able to penetrate dense fog, where lidar or radar may still work.
- amelius 2y agoTrue, but it's the same for a human driver.
- KeplerBoy 2y agoSure, but we should aim for superhuman driving capabilities, especially in conditions humans struggle.
- amelius 2y agoMaybe, but the car can also simply refuse to drive if the conditions are bad.
- KeplerBoy 2y agoOf course it can refuse (and should do so if it's unsafe), but that's not the goal, is it?
- amelius 2y agoOf course, but Lidar is more expensive.
- KeplerBoy 2y agoMeh, i believe Tesla will be wrong on this one. Yes, they will achieve good autonomous cars without lidar and radar, but someone else will build a slightly safer autonomous driving experience with those added modalities. The costs will plummet as the sensors become ubiquitous and eventually they will be required by legislation.
- adityamwagh 2y agoYup, I strongly agree with you too. Infact In fact I mentioned that in my interview for the Tesla Autopilot team lol I guess that’s why they didn’t move me forward in the process.
- KeplerBoy 2y agohaha, bold move.
- jampekka 2y agoEV grade LiDAR is now under $1000 a pop. In retail. For car manufacturers it must be under half of that.
- itishappy 2y agoDriving in conditions unsafe for humans is not a current goal of anyone I'm aware of.
