I don't buy this.

Is it the same reason other car manufacturers continue to use tiny shitty displays? I remember hearing similar arguments back then about that - the displays were 'hardened for cars' or something.

The simpler explanation is the other manufacturers can't adapt.

Radar was removed because the computer vision got to the point where the radar data was introducing noise and errors into the system - the quality of the sensor data went up after removing it. Karpathy's latest talk goes into this.




If your "simples explanation" requires all non-Tesla carmakers to be incapable of using alternative chips because they "can't adapt", you should examine your personal biases.


I think Rivian might be able to pull it off.

Let’s reevaluate in ten years, we’ll see how the legacy companies are doing then.


those comments were made after Tesla ran into problems with their consumer grade displays. Running into parked emergency vehicles also went up without radar.
