Elon Musk Stormed Into the Tesla Office Furious That Autopilot Tried to Kill Him
Walter Isaacson's new biography on Elon Musk also reveals that the CEO left his engineers who wanted to use LiDAR exasperated.
You're viewing a single thread.
So he demanded that the driver assistance software be as safe as possible before public release? paving the way for full self driving 6-7 years later? is this a bad thing?
If he demanded it was as safe as possible, he wouldn't have refused to add lidar or radar capabilities.
I thought the “needs lidar” debate was settled years ago? Lidar cannot read signs. It is also prohibitively expensive to put in vehicles. If you’re going to drive with a neural network you need as much training data as possible, which means as many sensors in as many vehicles as possible.
If your cameras detect something the lidar does not, you trust the cameras, every time. Lidar can very easily misinterperet the world. It works great for simple robots who need to know where walls are and don’t need to specifially identify animals, people, obstacles, speed bumps, construction zones, etc.
Theres also the simple fact that humans can drive just fine without having evolved a lidar sensor.
Look at you just parroting Musk's lies. Do you parrot his transphobic bullshit too?
If your cameras detect something the lidar does not, you trust the cameras
Yes, but if the lidar sees something the cameras doesn't, you trust the lidar.
No he ABSOLUTELY didn't do that, because it's very unsafe and he unleashed not only AP but also that total steaming pile that is "FSD". Which is neither F nor SD.
