There is no room for innovators in the autonomous driving game. All the startups predicated on fast innovation will be shaken out. Most already have been. Autonomous driving is about delivering quality software. If you're not a software company with a solid platform, you aren't in the game.

As this blog post illustrates, the whole comma.ai thing was pitched based on vibes anyway. There never was a path to viability.

Hotz has always come across as very arrogant to me. Claims everyone else is doing things the wrong way, claims he can do it himself in 24h, then never delivers on his words.

I just want to point out that Hotz delivered when he was doing hacking related work.

He's very talented, I don't want people to think he's a scam artist.
