Possibly. However, Tesla has been burned in the past for relying on single sources before. Also, the AP2 approach is narrow deep neural net starting with the raw pixels from the cameras. In other words, previously, Mobileye did the lower levels and handed off to Tesla softward for planning, mapping and driving. Now, in AP2, the neural net does the whole thing, and they are able to tweak the lower levels of the NN, which they couldn't with MBLY. So labelling them with the label hubris seems presumptious and unnecessarily disparaging, in this case.hu·bris

with all the doubts about full autonomy, am i the only one who's seen those demo videos where the tesla is successfully driving thru local roads with no assistance? Something like that seems good enough for me, it may be a long ways out until full rollout but i highly doubt 5 years....maybe a couple tops? and i only see government regulations standing in the way, nothing more.
Consider this, this video was shown last year, the current AP2 software doesn't do anything near that. Why do you think that is? If Tesla had this software working so well last year, why are they not releasing it? You can't say "lack of government approval" because they obviously got approval to release what is currently out there, so why not release the same functionality they got approval for but at the level shown in the video? Or, another example, in the video the car detects cross traffic and blind spots, why don't the current AP2 cars have such wonderful blind spot detection? No special government approval required as it would be just a warning feature, not an active one controlling the car.with all the doubts about full autonomy, am i the only one who's seen those demo videos where the tesla is successfully driving thru local roads with no assistance?

I wrote about it a few months ago.Either that, or those videos were greatly faked up!
As Model 3 orders are fully refundable and production is months away, you don't have to worry about this.hello guys
not an owner yet but i am concerned about this. I would like to put an order for a 3 but until AP2 is at least at AP1 level, i'll wait.
Hopefully next week will be a pivotal moment for the system
If Tesla had this software working so well last year, why are they not releasing it?
..... so why not release the same functionality they got approval for but at the level shown in the video?
.... why don't the current AP2 cars have such wonderful blind spot detection?
.....like they are holding back on the "good software" because they just want to keep people in suspense),
.....but I don't see another reasonable explanation why the current functionality isn't anywhere near the video, other than the video was a marketing stretch.
The second-system effect
The second-system effect proposes that, when an architect designs a second system, it is the most dangerous system they will ever design, because they will tend to incorporate all of the additions they originally did not add to the first system due to inherent time constraints. Thus, when embarking on a second system, an engineer should be mindful that they are susceptible to over-engineering it.
It's one thing to miss timelines. It's entirely another thing to use deceptive timelines in order to motivate sales. The former is annoying. The latter is going to mire Tesla in court battles and destroy their reputation outside of the cult of personality.Elon's timelines will be the death of Tesla...
Don't leave out retro media capabilities -- you can always worry about retro media capabilities!But if you have concerns, just worry about build quality and service&parts availability.
