Tesla Talk 2

Mine likes to whisper. I think it's trying to seduce me 🤣. I asked why it was using a whisper tone after a few prompts, because it was a bit strange mid "conversation". It then said it would be more "upbeat".

Not a hope of this passing EU. We've already seen them grounding the fleet in Austin when the weather gets raining. Alas the hype train never ever abates.

The whole machine is running on hype at this stage.

Just to add with he major push now towards tech sovereignty coming in. Id be surprised if Elons ridiculously manufactured AI bot passes muster long term. He'd have to start local hosting the data and then implementing non flight of EU citizen data. This is what's coming down the tracks and he won't like that.

Unclear. Because Tesla have double speak.

It's not possible for them to do real fsd with their current hardware choices. They either revert back to what they had and build on that or get left behind by the competition in this specific space.

First step to what ? Having assisted driving?

That's what it is. And that's what it will be allowed to be in Europe. Years of this marketing the same thing.

Will they won't they. Surely it's clear as day now, they won't. The tech isn't up to task. Its own launch of robotaxi across Austin paused due to weather. It's limited and will always be by camera focused hardware.

Absolute wishful thinking it's getting the two thumbs up. If people are being plainly honest.

It would open up the gambit for 'any old ****' from china getting the thumbs up. Theres far too much fluff made of the video AI processing and little attention paid to the inability to video process.

As I said, it won't pass muster, and the owners current relationships with Europe make the outcome even more certain.

Actually yes I do have a deep understanding of AI video frame processing. (Part of my job) But sure look. I'm sure you know better my guy.

The fun part is you were trying to be sarky with zero understanding of what I do.

This will not pass, and yes they need more hardware. That's the simple reality. Camera processor alone is simply not safe enough.

There is no 'super duper competitor system' There is however far safer and sensible methods to self driving. Camera alone is not it. Regardless of how much people here on this forum take their queue from Elons marketing fluff. Tesla will shut down (correctly) in rain as its is safer to do so. Other systems would not, but they too have their limitations.

Ive been working in AI image analysis space for 5 years+ Tesla probably have some of the best image analysis going. But it still is an extreme extremely process / human heavy. i.e new scenarios are found every second of the day. With camera processing alone you only have single sense to assist and nothing to reference against.

It is what it is, but some people don't like reality. They would prefer to call it heresy. (i don't know what else to say). You would'nt let a plane take off from the ground with image analysis as its sole basis for operation. Nor should one think this is good for the ground. - Great driving aid - Not great independent driving system.

The additional data sensors can facilitate the camera in determining if there is an object there or the cameras vision has been impacted by changing in light conditions.

The level of scenarios AI cameras have to conflict with is near infinite. And there is a huge amount of human engagement required contrary the the assumption that learning is linear. (It's not).

Reference points of alternate and differently sensed data is absolutely invaluable. And can be the difference between the vehicle taking a safety subtle swerve to the left or staying the course because the alternative sensor tells you there is no object there that needs avoiding.
