I lost all trust in their 'Autopilot' the day I read Musk said (Paraphrasing) "All we need are cameras, there's no need for secondary/tertiary LIDAR or other expensive setups"
Like TFYM? No backups?? Or backups to the backups?? On a life fucking critical system?!
Ah, but you see, his reasoning is that what if the camera and lidar disagree, then what? With only a camera based system, there is only one truth with no conflicts!
Like when the camera sees the broad side of a white truck as clear skies and slams right at it, there was never any conflict anywhere, everything went just as it was suppo... Wait, shit.
RIP Joshua Brown:
Lidar would still prevail over stupidity in this situation. It does a better job detecting massive objects cars can't go through.
