And this is why i keep trying to tell
@S4WRXTTCS that it matters whose right or wrong.
If we don't keep track then no one would know wtf was going on and ppl would bs their way in every discussion.
But with track records, someone whose every post is based on logic will always be right and someone whose posts are based on fantasy and myths will always be wrong.
You clearly misunderstood what I was getting at.
We don't have perfect information coming out from Tesla so we can't know exactly what they're doing. We don't know when they EXACTLY started simulation, and how it's involved over the years.
One of my biggest complaints about the Tesla AP is the lack of transparency from Tesla on something we pre-paid for.
So we're left to largely speculate. We can use our backgrounds to speculate on everything we've heard. We can also use what we observe in our own cars. This is especially important when it comes to how a person might like/hate any given feature.
Of course this speculation leads to biases.
I'm a hardware engineer so you'll see me saying "No, that can't work because it doesn't have enough sensors". I say that because I want a lot of hardware redundancy.
Then there is Jimmy who is an NN guy, and he's naturally going to biased in favor of NN solutions.
Regular Owners are naturally biased towards some level of optimism. You can see this in how many likes a positive speculative post will get about some AP behavior.
Going back there were quite a few people who had pretty solid predictions about FSD being way far away, and EAP being way more difficult to implement than Elon was letting on.
I myself felt like FSD was the second biggest con job I'd ever seen in my life. I felt like the world had lost it's marbles back in 2016.
Imagine if all those people who called it on EAP/FSD kept spouting on about how right they were?
Wouldn't that be really annoying?
Then there is also the idea that the whole AP program got reset with Karpathy. I myself didn't buy an AP2 car until I got a Model P3D+ a few months ago., and I got EAP+FSD with it.
I did so with the feeling like Tesla was finally starting to get traction with AP on HW2/HW2.5. Plus they were starting to offer compelling features outside of that. Things like track mode, and dash cam. Where I felt like Tesla was finally getting out of this black hole that was recovering from the split with MobileEye, and betting the company on the Model 3.
I can't speak for other owners, but I think a fair amount of us learn who to trust on here. Where we get an overall vibe of who to ask. Knowing who to ask is extremely important in a place where there is so much contradictory information.
When it comes to hardware I'll ask verygreen or lunitiks. There used to be ingineer, but I don't know what became of them. I also trust WK057, but he hasn't been around much lately.
When it comes to NN's I still think Jimmy is the one to ask. He's just trying to do his bet to interpret what's on the car. If I worked at Tesla I'd probably purposely mess with him where I put fake neural networks on it.
When it comes to historical stuff regarding the history of AP I think MP3Mike has been the most accurate.
Do any of those people talk about how right they are? No, why would they?
Trump claims he's right all the time. But, is Trump right all the time? Are you really sure you want to use a tag line like what Trump would use? This isn't political as most republicans I know would never claim they're right all the time.
