Huh? Hyundai has Tesla-tier automated factories that churn out EVs, and they’re building plants around the world. I don’t think they care who buys their cars. Tesla sold a bunch of cars to Hertz which turned out to be terrible for Hertz, bu

I believe the idea is that openpilot replaces the usual robotics stack with an end to end neural net. While I agree operating system is usually a marketing term, it does feel correct in this case as it is the operating system for the Comma
