Which to me means, what's the Big o of this entire venture?

Ultimately, what they need to do is add nines of reliability. I guess I could argue that what they are producing now is like two nines: 99% accuracy.

Of course, that depends on how you measure it and yada yada yada. So for things like self-driving, I could see how people could argue that the accuracy rate is 99.9% on a minute by minute basis.

But how many nines do you need? Especially for self-driving five more? What's the computational cost to achieve that? Is it just five times? Is it 25 times? Is it two to the five power?
