   Got my 16in M1 Max today. One thing I didn't expect was how good the speakers are. Compared to my mid 2015 MacBookPro these sound amazing.

    I don't think stop signs with RF beacons is needed. The cameras on the car can provide just as good an image as what a human eye can. The problem to be figured out is generating a mental model of the environment and reasoning about it.
