Your comment on what Tesla employees know and don't know brought it to mind.I'm very familiar with Pascal's Wager...

And could you please add who the "sources with knowledge" are?@FredLambert i have been meaning to ask you this question ever since the v8.0 announcement went off. In your article Tesla Autopilot 2.0: next gen Autopilot powered by more radar, new triple camera, some equipment already in production you have written
Sources with knowledge of the Autopilot program told us that the new suite will keep the current front-facing radar and add more around the car, likely one in each corner. Additionally, the system will feature a new front-facing triple camera system for which we are told Tesla started installing new housing in the Model S production this week.
Does any of that change with the recent announcement?
Do you have any other links that are more detailed? This is interesting stuff. I'd like to make more sense of it, but my Google searches aren't returning anything of value. I did find this, but I don't think that classifies as valuable either. Fluffy piece.Yes you're right, several years ago we were doing physics first-principles simulation work with NVIDIA GPU hardware in the data center of a global oil company. Now with the IoT wave, there's embedded intelligence, smart devices, edge or "fog computing" --in the car. From Quanergy's presentation below, seems that NVIDIA is going in this direction for autonomous vehicles (see slides 17-19). It's mindblowing how much compute power (a pair of Tegra X1's) they now have on these small-footprint cards going into AVs.
And could you please add who the "sources with knowledge" are?
Probably "some people".And could you please add who the "sources with knowledge" are?
Oh NEAT---a software update for the Spouse. hmmm
Yeah, we wouldn’t want him to reveal who his Tesla Deep Throat is, whoever’s telling him there’s additional new sensors in the bumper and a new camera and all kinds of cool new hardware for Autopilot 2.0, when in the past two weeks we haven't seen any evidence to back up it up.I assume this is a joke? If this information turns out to be correct, we need to keep his source confidential.

I haven't found any other links either, and just found the Quanergy link by happenstance. I happen to work in the IoT Analytics/Cloud area, but more in the predictive maintenance/predictive asset optimization of plants and large equipment, nothing in automotive. I know some people who do, so will see what else I can find out that's not proprietary and can be shared. Maybe we can have some fun coming up with our own "how we'd do it" AP 2.0 design.Do you have any other links that are more detailed? This is interesting stuff.

Very much appreciate the clarity on this, as I think my view on this was "a couple of years ago" old, which is ancient in the context of this tech.
But of Course----her software is brain power, a wise investment. I was more caveman - thinking softness in a female meant curves, and upgrades meant better curves. I think you got the best possible deal - energy to learn, brain to accept the learn and spunk to use it "to fight you". No wonder you are a most happa fellaw.I'm getting one now as she's completing her college degree. My wife had no formal education in her native Thialand. (Her brother taught her how to read and write since her parents are illiterate and she spent time working in the fields.) In 13 years she's got a better vocabulary in English than she does in Thai and frequently beats me in searching for synonyms in English. Now she's learning western philosophy and it's a trip learning from her, despite my considerable Ph.D. work in political theory.
Fifteen years ago I asked her why she wanted to learn English, "all the better to fight with you." I'm feeling more the power she now has. Fortunately, she is a good Buddhist so that strength is not to be feared, just wondered about. "I'm the most happa fellaw, in the whole Napa, er, Sacramanta valley!"
No, he's doing what he thinks is best for the company, which has turned out to be different than what we're imagining in our own little "Simulation Theory" world on this forum and in the blogosphere where there are few journalistic standards.Let's say that was all true and article was correct. Would everyone consider EM to have lied and or deceived?
lack of new hardware proof on the recent cars makes the odds for this blog article to be as much.No, he's doing what he thinks is best for the company, which has turned out to be different than what we're imagining in our own little "Simulation Theory" world on this forum and in the blogosphere where there are few journalistic standards.

So people just completely make this stuff up (his source) or is it more likely it for scrapped for whatever reason? Because 9/5 build dates should be delivered any day now.
I'm actually much more curious to see if the Supercharger credit rumors pan out. Right now as far as I can tell the electrek rumor is the only source material for that, even though the forum seems to have mostly accepted it as fact after all the articles quoted that rumor.
As @Canuck properly points out, that was discovered here before it made it up to Electrek. It was on the Tesla website in the hidden source, then it became visible briefly before being removed. I feel pretty confident that it's coming and that enabling it is going to be tied to under-the-hood changes in 8.0.I'm actually much more curious to see if the Supercharger credit rumors pan out.

I'll give a pass to tesla on autopilot 1.0,
Is everyone serious? How do you compare a $100k car to a $600 or even $2000 laptop? Most people on here make that range in a day's work.
I want this car for a number of reasons, but let's compare apples to apples.
