"We're just two dudes on the internet.' Dude and Dad. Right on guys.

Fisker will give a set of tools and 3D printer for free with each car bought.

2:30 Jesse did a good explaining why lidar is expensive. It’s not just the unit cost as many commenters, including me, think but the fact that theres several of them required to be placed around the car and each consumes energy to operate. The costs really add up for each car in terms of unit costs multiplied by number of units plus energy requirements. Plus, each additional lidar unit is an additional unit to maintain. Adding everything up, Elon is absolutely correct, lidars are really expensive.

Spitting facts! keep spitting Zac & Jessie🤗

Thanks for the analysis

Thanks guys

Great information, a lot of insight on evs.

Does lidar stop working in the rain ? Tesla Vision throws warnings that fsd is degraded due to weather.

Very valuable videos

Back to Germany in Europe is not a serious problem btw. I frequently get stuff from Amazon overnight from Germany. Trains exist here, and 50% (or thereabouts) of our freight in the UK goes through the Channel Tunnel. Vehicles can do that too. And since electric vehicles basically don't break down, I wouldn't worry about it.

So much hardware on those cars.

Should do a comparison on Tesla and Rivian for the first couple of years - production and financials. Oh, and Rivian is almost impossible to find locations - any link to service centers drops you on the main page of Rivian. My 2016 Nissan has four cameras so a Tesla having cameras is not an added cost like lidar would be - it is expected for a car now.

comes from what people in control consider an advisory

Just more nyk!!! :D

Fisker is a great designer and a criminal businessman.

I wonder if anyone had done a study of what might happen if a lot of LIDAR-equipped are operating in close proximity, like a dense traffic scenario. You could get a lot of spoofing.

Momenta are getting ahead of all the 'investors' who think they missed out on FSD so are looking for the next Tesla all over again after losing money buying Nio, Aptera, Rivian, Fisker and, if they're really gullible, Nikolai.

canoo almost makes the van i want...but it will probably go bankrupt.

Not a big fan of Rivian but saying they are not profitable after 3 years is not surprising as most businesses don’t make profit in the first five years. Due to the upfront capital investment being so high id expect this to be longer for automotive companies

If AI has to rely on data, that AI is in interpolative mode. Meaning it does not know outside the dataset, aka the edges. Momenta does not need a huge set of data, it inferences the situations and reacts or acts accordingly like a human. This Momenta AI is in extrapolative mode. It understands the convex or situation as it changes. There is no edge cases. I as a human could be in Timbuktu for the very first time and I can drive on any roadside of Timbuktu without any prior knowledge (data) of any road in Timbuktu. That is because a human can know what a drivable surface is at all time.

LiDAR an expensive sensors WILL NOT SCALE Way too expensive

So bet your life on 1.2 megapixel cameras instead? How is that going to pick up a sport bike going 100 miles per hour towards your intersection? I have FSD I'm no longer a believer

gmc EV1 which you could only lease, not buy.

Lidar is superior to just cameras, you guys are just repeating Elon's talking points. Autonomy will not be reached on the cheap, it's going to cost money. They will probably need advanced radar too.

I invite you to watch any number of KZread clips of FSD driving without radar or lidar. Radar was removed because it was out of phase with camera data. Lidar is an excellent technology but is very expensive and unnecessary. You don’t have to believe some random in the comments; take 10 minutes to watch a couple of clips. Updates are coming out every three weeks now that Tesla no longer has commute constraints. It’s been a whole new world for several months now.

Yeah because Tesla is killing it “no pun intended” with the self driving thing. FSD the way it is currently envisioned is a pipe dream, solely relying on the cameras and sensor Tesla utilizes is not working which is why Tesla has been quietly revisiting and purchasing LiDAR units from Luminar.

If you seen that picture of the Tesla and the fire truck . Then you saw the back end of the Tesla was crushed. It was hot by someone else and pushed the Tesla into the side of the fire truck as it was passing.
