With all the hype around HW3 it was interesting to hear them discuss in today’s investor event the next gen chip which will be around 3x more powerful than HW3 (aka the FSD chip) and out in around two years from now.
With all the talk about how HW3 is barely ticking what will they use all that extra compute power for?
-Elon said that they’ve had multiple discussions on additional sensors and always decide current suite does not need additions so it isn’t for that.
-Elon has said they get full redundancy and 2000 frames per second of analysis with HW3 so that seems like more than enough for street driving.
Just faster/better reaction times?
Perhaps sharing data with other cars in real-time?
Moving additional software into ASICS?
Or just general future proofing?
Hmmmm.
