> For now. What can incremental progress do to make a camera see through road salt deposited on its lens? I call bullshit. There isn't any incremental path because it's not physically possible. The photons are stopped by the salt. No amount of "AI" or what the fuck ever else will change this. There is no path towards "progress" here.

Just for the sake of argument, they could use spinning lenses like you do on a camera in inclement weather

  Yeah or some sort of washer/wiper system, but there's much better, safer technology for this. They could just use it.

    The front bumper cameras already have a spray wash

My understanding is lenses should be inside the windshield, and a system should not oeprate if it can't see. I don't operate from an assumption that cameras will remain the same as they are today. Your comment did remind me about Comma, though. https://comma.ai/ https://comma.ai/

You'll eat your words much sooner than you think. The cameras don't need much clarity to work effectively (they work quite well in intense rain). The main forward camera is behind the windshield already.
