150x the power of a Skylake (14nm) Quad Core i7 at 2.9GHz/3.8GHz and Radeon Pro 460?
Wow! Which Tegra chip are you referring to?

AP 2.0 is using the nvidia px2 full autonomy hardware. A single px2 board consists of 6 Titan X gpu's and 2 tegra processors.
The nvidia images of the px2 full autonomy suite shows two of the px2 boards, so tesla AP2 could actually be 12 titan X's and 4 tegras, im still trying to confirm that though.
The processing capability is far beyond what you can imagine.
Let me explain, the average person hasnt really had a computer in their hands that is 150 times more powerful than one of the top of the line computers on the market.
When you think of the fastest desktop or laptop you probably think of some really nice video games, maybe intense video processing, virtual reality or just writing text documents.
The computers driving AP 2.0 are 150 times more powerful than a Mac book pro.
I know you're probably thinking but Elon and the order page says it's only 40 times more powerful.
well go back and look again it actually says 40 times more powerful than before (referring to AP 1.0) which is actually pretty good news for AP 1.0 cars because that means there is still a lot of life left in AP1.0
Anyways I digress my point being, the computer running the full autonomy is capable of more than the average person can fathom at this time.
Tesla has already demonstrated that they are testing that full autonomy.
So before any of you guys assume that this round of auto pilot will follow step with the last round consider this. #1 they've already released AP1.0 gotten legislative approval for that and this new suite is significantly more powerful than the last, things are not the same this time around.
I'm confident we can expect great things from AP 2 and we can expect them to be delivered faster than they did with AP 1.
And if you're wondering how I know all of this..... I'm addicted to YouTube, I've watched every video on px2 and read every article I could find.
