Vision is necessary but lidar and other sensor types are probably going to be a powerful supplement.

One can possibly compensate for an inferior “brain” by having more kinds of data to discern meaning from.

George Hotz take was that vision alone could be trained to get to human or near human driving ability, but that the sensor fusion part was confusing the machine learning and much harder to get to that level.

Maybe he'll be wrong in the future but for now even Tesla seems to have pulled the radar stuff from their cars.

Yeah, we don’t know yet. Maybe in the future!

But Tesla or anyone else pulling radar stuff doesn’t really suggest he’s right. Until any of them succeed, it doesn’t mean much.

To some degree it is an expert opinion. Opinions can change or be wrong but they still have some noteworthiness
