.@Tesla approach is: – using camera only = cost savings over LDIAR – developing own chip system = cost saving & performance optimisation – shadow mode & fleet learning = testing the AI on billion real world miles – world leading talent works on this https://t.co/DtKJxlB5zx $TSLA https://t.co/cLIUROTPlU

.@Mercedes keeps it vague: The route to full-fledged autonomous driving is not a straight shot, but a puzzle … Until 2025, level 4/5 capabilities (compare graph) that allow cars to take over for their human drivers will grow exponentially. https://t.co/lX2bsnNvch https://t.co/KuOkehG7h3

Especially telling is the @VW stance on autonomy: – Autonomous cars require high-tech infrastructure, hugely expensive lidar & radar systems – At least 5 years out – like Mission to Mars – Level 5 will never happen globally (cities) – Level 3 cost $56,460 https://t.co/M4Vuj9mCuf https://t.co/z5oGEioxfN
