So it appears it's reading the road signs? I see it stops on the intersection with a stop sign where's no traffic lights. But what if the sign is damaged or removed? The car will go straight without stopping?

#112Can someone explain the left turn on 1:41? Seems a bit aggressive.

#113Wow so many comments about the Benny Hill music. I for one love that Elon Musk's quirky sense of humour. So many people take themselves far too seriously.

#114Daimler done that 3 years ago even in high density city traffic. Daimler could even pass vehicles that covered half the lane and didn't need to stop for them. https://youtu.be/SUOC8tE4bdM

Curious, why do you think so? Wouldn't make much sense to throw all that stuff away.
For the same reason it makes no sense to keep your Sega Saturn games when you now have a Playstation. There are some testing scenarios which Tesla should be able to use, ut none of the software from MonilEye has relevance to Nvidia's platform.
I also read another quote from the Tesla engineering team that "nearly all of it" (the data collected from AP 1) can be used for the new AP system https://electrek.co/2016/11/07/tesla-bought-1-million-data-s...
So it seems like the analogy is more akin to Xbox 360 and Xbox One, hardware got an upgrade but they were able to run Xbox 360 games on it with some work.

#116That's really impressive, but I really want to see it driving through rush hour in a densely populated old Italian city. Let's continue pushing the envelope.
Something you wouldn't wish on anyone who is even remotely your friend.

In my autopilot gen 1 Tesla, when the software was first released, lane markings had to be really clear, but as the software has matured, it now does less than perfect lane marking in pretty heavy rain without issue.
I think the current-gen autopilot vision code is a completely different codebase from a different supplier running on different hardware than the gen 1, though, so all those improvements have probably been thrown away.
It would be quite weird if they didn't retrain their new models with all that data.

If a stop sign was removed, I probably would've driven straight through without stopping too. How would I know there used to be a stop sign?

The car in that video had so much extra custom stuff it's not even funny. And while it's still a technical feat, I don't see every mercedes being sold with that equipment in it already.
The reason this is amazing is because Tesla is planning on switching this on for all of their new cars in the very near future. It might not be the most technically advanced, but it's here.
