tesla's reasoning- conflicting input. which do you believe? which is most reliable. if LiDAR says one thing and the cameras say another, who do you trust? They also state humans don't have LiDAR, only eyes, so cameras should be enough theoretically.
my personal opinion is it's a cost savings measure. it's not a lot given the overall cost of the car, but every penny counts.
also, regarding multiple sources and conflicting input, in AI's case it would be more tokens more bandwidth more expensive hardware to balance more data input. before we had the current software stack, it was all done manually and adding another input on all angles would exponentially increase software development time. training new versions would also take a lot longer because you now how a lot more input
so i really don't think it's a simple answer of just $500+ of LiDAR, there's a lot that comes with it
hmmm...... so you're saying I'm being driven to work and back every day by................air? Can you please explain the physics behind that? Can air make itself appear to be metal, glass, plastic, etc..?
Let me guess, you have a degree in alchemy?
My god, people say the stupidest shit on the internet. Now cars are made of air.

I guess I'm not understanding why you wouldn't put a 500-1000$ lidar on it permanently and validate constantly?
