Tesla: Automatic Labeling For Computer Vision

Summary

  • Human driving behavior provides Tesla with a source of automatic labels for computer vision tasks related to autonomous driving.

  • Automatic labeling allows Tesla to leverage its vast quantity of fleet miles. This gives it an advantage over competitors like Waymo and Cruise.

  • Tesla can also use automatic labels for predicting road user behavior and performing driving maneuvers.

  • Partially autonomous driving should not be overlooked as a source of higher revenue and gross margins for Tesla.

  • Autonomy software will make the Cybertruck’s futuristic appearance feel more natural by the time it launches.
