Elon's bullshit aside, they are leading self driving and the company with most data to train machine learning models on, by FAR.

Their self driving challenges are not a result of data acquisition, adding LIDAR to the mix would not be helpful. Pedestrian detection is not the big unsolved problem this article makes it sound like.

If the latest FSD update is anything to go buy, they won't be a leader for much longer if every release makes it worse.
