It's not going to work. I happen to be friends with a top AI researcher and he laughs it off completely. "No way." He referred me to this:

"It's all hype," said Steven E. Shladover, a retired research engineer at the University of California, Berkeley who has been involved in efforts to create autonomous driving for 45 years. "The technology does not exist to do what he is claiming. He doesn't have it and neither does anybody else."

It's not close to working at all. Musk must know it.

I used to think FSD without lidar was just too far away (a decade+), but I've been checking every now and then of FSD beta progress for a couple of years now, and at the current rate of progress I changed my mind and I believe that in 2 or 3 years, and with one more hardware upgrade, it will be done.

Their latest 10.69 FSD (released yesterday) is quite impressive already.

How can he know which tech TESLA have? I mean a lot of AI breakthroughs, like transformers or alpha fold came from the industry and not academia.
