Ah yes, the autonomous cars that are limited to only cameras and not any other form of sensor like radar/lidar will be so successful!
It doesn't matter what sensors you have. Autonomy is a pipe dream.
Autonomy is not a pipe dream. It might not happen with Teslas sensors, and it might not happen for many many more years, but it will happen.
There's nothing unattainable about it with sufficient technology
Well of course but that statement is writing a blank cheque. Let me cap my statement.
"...within the next century".
My pet theory is that self driving will start to really gain momentum when new construction in gentrified areas start designing roads with aids for self driving. It would require a degree of standardization to work across different manufacturers though.
ok. not gonna be an investor now. good advice ๐
(not that i planned to, but ok)
I'll pass on this bet. It's the Pareto law at its worst: impressive advancements in the first years and now progress halted by a million edge cases.
