I heard Tesla released a new self driving car demo. Is Tesla actually leading the self driving evolution? and Is the quality of software engineers at Tesla better / equivalent or lower as compared to other companies like Google, Uber, Lyft?
Just search Blind. this is posted daily
If you actually watched Tesla's presentation yesterday, you should have seen that it's all very real and it is frankly incredible.

Cameras only is just plain stupid. Theres still a ways to go.
Humans use cameras only
Yea, why build the vibrator when the dildo is more human
Demo was the real drive, that shows the technology is already here and lidar is definitely better but cost and size is just absurd
Demos show your best results, you are very optimistic.
All the investors were asked to test drive it, I don’t think they will do it until they have a 100% working product , it’s not an iphone which they can switch over if it’s not working, people may die if the car software makes one wrong move ... so little optimistic , just this time 🙂
Could someone please answer the 2nd part of the question as well
Google/uber etc are still trying to make a product whereas Tesla already have a product live , in 1000’s of car which they are optimizing at an awesome rate, so they have a upper hand as of now...
Tesla also has a ton of real world data to improve their system. My bet would be on Tesla pulling off the better system in the near term.
Google has more miles per disengagement than anyone else. Elon hates lidar because it’s ugly having it on the roof and expensive (my guess). Elon has also killed more people than google has with AV. I think we have a long way to go, and Elon won’t hit his dates per the usual.
Google has maybe 100 cars and Autopilot running on ~400,000. You can’t compare death numbers here.
Elon is always lying. This FSD promo is just to paint the news cycle bc Wednesday their numbers are going to be horrible. He can’t build a profitable car company so he wants to be valued on autonomous driving lol. Elon doesn’t care about this company. That’s why he embezzled from it to bailout his and his cousins insolvent solar city company. It about money. Elon has taken margin loans against his Tesla equity and cannot have the stock price go down too much, even if that’d be good for the company. https://twitter.com/richardkeppler1/status/1120888716132790272?s=21 3/19/15 (NYT) -"Musk Says Self-Driving $TSLA Cars Will Be in the U.S. by Summer" 10/19/16 (Wired) -"MUSK SAYS EVERY NEW TESLA CAN DRIVE ITSELF" 1/24/17 (Electrek) -"Tesla to transition from ‘Enhanced Autopilot’ to ‘Fully Self-Driving’ as soon as ‘3 to 6 months’, says Musk"
But still, it’s a step forward, if he can do it everyone wins except the traditional car companies, oil lobbyist etc etc
It's vaporware. Elon Musk doesn't believe in lidar.
Those demonstrations sure didn't seem like vaporware... And neural net image processing + ultrasonic renders lidar obsolete, anyway. Did you even watch the stream? It was all explained pretty well.
Lidar doesn’t work when it rains or snows. So even if an autonomous car uses lidar it still has to work without lidar.
