I spent a decade working on commercial computer vision applications that, among other things, had to recognize and track cars. Those are exactly the sort of transient errors you'd expect to see in shipping products and they usually have heuristics to "smooth" over those sorts of problems.

That said, would I ever trust my life to a system like that? No.

I'm actually surprised they show it as raw as it looks. Doesn't inspire too much confidence, even though I bet the system must be reclassifying and changing way faster than it renders things on screen.

Don’t get me wrong, my background is also pretty CV-heavy, and I don’t expect perfection by any means.

But the display itself serves basically no purpose besides looking cool, and it just fails pretty badly at that. Also yeah, it made me maybe a little more nervous about being on the road with a Tesla than it should’ve…

We'd usually have something like that in our products as a developer/debug mode, not generally visible to customers.

If anything, if you've got self-driving on in a Tesla, you're not being nervous enough. :)
