Fair enough. To be honest my issue comes from the self made man self driven car - david vs goliath thing he conveys often. I understand the fact that businesses have suboptimal structures and negative incentives in terms of engineering and technical prowess. And we all want real and beautiful innovation to happen as quick as possible. But his mashup of computer vision hooked into the electronic steering control was way less impressive to me than to the iphone/ps3 era crowd. Especially considering the social aspect of a ton of steel moving in public.

He gave a 15 minute speech on reverse engineering, then spoke for 4 minutes about self-driving cars...

In such a short time, what were you expecting him to achieve? (re: "social aspect of a ton of steel moving in public")

Not talking about this talk in particular, but the other interviews and his overall message.
