Stopping at traffic lights and stop signs now in "shadow mode"

Good luck with that

Yes, I know that one is a sculpture, but these sequences aren't

I’m sure Tesla will simply say that their FSD isn’t designed for complex situations like that. You need a lot more than a simple NN that can detect traffic lights to resolve this. It’s probably going to need a human brain-like NN, which HW3 likely can’t come close to.

That is not necessary. You use SfM (structure from motion) with one camera

Technically you don’t even need that for driving. My biological neural net can understand the traffic scenarios in this thread’s pictures by looking at the pictures on a cell phone (2D screen), in the backseat of a convertible. That’s probably also contributing to the extreme optimism. It’s proven that a neural net with two optical sensors can drive a car. Probably won’t fit into HW3 though LOL!

Interesting update from Elon:

So looks like Tesla is focusing on traffic lights and stop signs for now but does aim to be able to read all traffic signs at some point for FSD.
