why would you wait? i mean, you own a model 3, what could possibly happen in a year that would convince you not to buy one?

its not that they failed to do it and are committed to a lie. they deliberately nixed using lidar because of patent rights. i read something that said it's around 10k/car for a proper lidar setup, and tesla is already unable to make money selling cars.

I think it's both? Lidar is still very expensive if they have to put it in every car, but they've told people they'll be able to deliver fsd as a software update, and if they start working on new fsd software that relies on lidar they would have to basically admit they're abandoning development of fsd for existing cars. Honestly I don't think Elon really even gives a poo poo, though. It's just like a theranos thing where he tells his employees "No I don't want to pay for lidar so do FSD without it" and if they complain he fires them. To be fair it's not like anyone has real FSD even with lidar anyway, but Tesla isn't able to do even lower levels of driver assistance safely, and they're incredibly brazen about lying so by all rights they should be regulated/sued out of existence. mystes fucked around with this message at 15:02 on Mar 14, 2021 |

infernal machines posted:sensor fusion is hard i have no doubt about that, but it does seem like patent issues are more likely the underlying cause. that's hilariously terrifying to know, though. where do the patent issues come into play here, does anyone know? is it a cost function where the patent is explicitly related to using lidar in an adas or is it because the sensors themselves are expensive? i feel like companies are coming out with cheaper iterations on the latter every year mystes posted:To be fair it's not like anyone has real FSD even with lidar anyway, but Tesla isn't able to do even lower levels of driver assistance safely, and they're incredibly brazen about lying so by all rights they should be regulated/sued out of existence. for sure, i just find his antagonism toward it hilarious

I think it's mainly just the cost of the sensors and hopefully solid state lidar will change that.

mystes posted:I think it's mainly just the cost of the sensors and hopefully solid state lidar will change that. ahh okay. in that case i expect we'll see it in probably every non-tesla car someday. i know how costs grow over huge production numbers but it seems like we have multiple companies touting sub-$100 lidar sensors at this point

Last teams meeting was hilariously awkward because he just kept dropping his connection randomly. Would have been funnier if we didn’t have to repeat every second point because he has one of the final votes on any major decision. the ceo of my company is a mega bazinga. whole family has Teslas, he encourages others to get them (even if he doesn’t pay them a salary to afford one lol) and all that. the upshot to this is I’ve learned that any IT expense can be justified by saying it’s the best, most cutting edge tech out there. it’s his kryptonite lol. he will pay anything to be perceived as being on the leading edge. yeah I’m riding the titanic to the bottom but my budget isn’t a problem at least.

it's also possible that there's a Mobileye situation going on with the LIDAR patents where the people licensing the technology won't let you do anything stupidly risky with it that might give their tech a black eye.
