#2some discussion yesterday, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28361807
it's interesting because it's clearly exciting & leading edge tech. unlike most Tesla tech which ultimately has consumers using it, where we all get to assess strengths & weaknesses, this tech is going to remain inside the Tesla castle, unviewable, unassessable. we'll probably never know what real strengths or weaknesses it has, never understand all the ways it doesn't well, or as well as competitors. it's going to remain an esoteric dollop of computing.

#3"We believe it makes sense for Tesla to pour as much capital as needed into winning the Robotaxi race and catch up to these two". That has to be a joke right?

At this point, everyone knows the whole thing is a joke. The robotaxi race was supposed to be already finished by 2020 alongside with FSD at Level 5 - today it is still Level 2.
So, where are the so-called robotaxis?

#5Another butt munch in their momma's basement writing a hit piece because Tesla isn't a union shop.
So easy to spot these losers. They think they're so smart yet they can only write shit on a blog rather than invent something useful.

Did you see the presentation from Karpathy? Tesla goes for a general vision only end-to-end deep AI model that could in theory get rolled out everywhere on earth with enough training and a good approach for fast edge-case solving, which they showed how this can be accomplished. All the other players try to solve this with lidar and cars that cost around 500k to build and they have pretty much 0 data except for the maps they generate themselves. This approach will never solve L5. Tesla may need another 10 years, but they are so far out of reach of the other players that you cant even call them competition at this point.

#7All I see is [techno terms].. impressive engineering.. lots of problems need to be solved first..2022..on paper toe to toe with Nvidia.. calm the hype.

#8> This chip is not Tesla designing something that is better than everyone else all by themselves. We are not at the liberty to reveal the name of their partner(s), but the astute readers will know exactly who we are talking about when we reference the external SerDes and photonics IP.
Any "astute readers" here who know who the partner would be?

Folks understand L1 and L5. The levels between are such a blur and mix-match of things that I don't think anything is even accomplished having these levels. I agree with you, from what I have seen Tesla is far ahead and rapidly progressing using the right approach of training NNs while having a human behind the wheel.

#10Tesla's claim to delivery ratio is abysmal. I'm not sure why anybody even bothers deconstructing these presentations anymore, they're just fluff.
