@LinsEchoChamber sure, i understand that’s what they are trying to do.

but they are very unlikely to make this work without Lidar at least somewhere in the loop.

and contrary their initial claims that they could drive anywhere, they are really going to need some ground truth in a great many

@GaryMarcus LiDAR is and was used to collect data and form certain conditions for their FSD training rather than using LiDAR data in training. Inference time no LiDAR will be used.

Does this mean all the pro-Tesla people who criticized LiDAR should reconsider?

A new Tesla Model Y with LiDAR has been spotted in Austin. Likely doing groundtruthing for the Robotaxi launch next month.

The statement engages in a technical discussion about the use of LiDAR in Tesla's autonomous driving technology. It suggests skepticism about Tesla's ability to achieve full self-driving capabilities without incorporating LiDAR, despite initial claims. The tone is analytical and critical, focusing on the technical feasibility of Tesla's approach.
