😮 Recent independent safety testing in China has sent shockwaves through the automotive industry as Tesla’s camera-based system outperformed rivals equipped with far more expensive hardware. Despite relying solely on Tesla Vision, the Model 3 and Model X successfully navigated complex hazard scenarios, such as avoiding simulated animals at high speeds, while many popular Chinese competitors failed. These results highlight a significant lead in AI software optimization, proving that sophisticated data processing can sometimes trump a higher quantity of physical sensors like LiDAR. This performance is particularly noteworthy because it arrives on the heels of several high-profile legal victories for Tesla against influencers who were caught faking previous braking failure videos. Do you think this demonstration of software dominance will force other manufacturers to abandon their reliance on LiDAR in favor of pure vision systems? What are your thoughts? 🤔💭 ( Media: @ niccruzpat...
