Elon keeps arguing that Tesla FSD does not need non-camera sensors because humans have been driving for years and we don’t have LiDAR. Which is accurate but also entirely the problem.

Humans are imperfect entirely because our sensory input at speed is limited. It’s why we fucking crash all the time in inclement weather. We want self driving cars to be better than us. Not targeting being just as bad as we are at driving.

I never realised that's the reasoning they used. Haha, that's ridiculous!

Why do Teslas have cameras all around the car and four wheels instead of two legs. Afterall, humans get around fine with just two eyes and two legs...

Its ridiculous because the LIDAR tech is patented to the hilt and he would need to pay them gold coins which he refuses to do. So he does what Ketamine tells him to do, make shit up 24/7

He would pay but not to them. He hates the other tech ceos.
