A typical car alternator outputs 1.5-3kW of electricity, and EVs can output arbitrary amounts of power for electronics (though that will reduce range). That's more than enough to run purpose-built circuitry for a SOTA LLM. For a home robot, you could run the compute in the home instead of in the robot's body.
I don't think AGI is needed for FSD because we already have safe FSD in the form of Waymo, and competitors aren't far behind. People forget that self-driving doesn't have to be perfect. It just has to be better than human drivers. Human drivers get sleepy, drunk, angry, and/or distracted. They can't see in 360º or react in milliseconds. Most cyclists and pedestrians prefer current FSD implementations to human drivers, as the computer-driven cars are much better about yielding, giving a wide berth, and being patient.
- HarHarVeryFunny 2y agoWaymo is obviously pretty decent, but it's easy to drive 99.9% of the time. It's when there's invisible black ice on the road, or an animal runs out in front of you, or you lose visibility due to sun glare or whatever (I once had windshield wiper fluid = water flash freeze on contact) - maybe mud on a camera, or a wheel falls off your car or the one in front, etc, etc, that things get weird. Having autonomous cars that are statistically safer then the average driver is a reasonable bar to allow them on the road, but for ME to want to drive one I want it to be safer than me, and I am not a hot-headed teenager, or gaga 80-yr old, or drunken fool, and since I have AGI (Actual General Intelligence) I react pretty well to weird shit.
