Tesla Computer Hardware Stuns Competitors: "We Cannot Do It"


hyperbole

Recommended Posts

Teardown Japanese business newspaper Nikkei Asian Review recently conducted a teardown of a Tesla Model 3, and engineers were shocked at how advanced the electric car company’s onboard computer technology was. “We cannot do it,” an unnamed Japanese engineer at a rival car company said after analyzing the Model 3’s integrated central control unit, as quoted by Nikkei — referring to legacy automakers’ inability to catch up to Tesla’s AI chips. Next Gen The current generation of

Tesla’s “Hardware 3” chips, which it started installing in vehicles last year, have enough computational power to enable Tesla vehicles to fully drive themselves, according to CEO Elon Musk. But as of right now, Tesla’s fleet’s self-driving capabilities are limited to Level 2 — out of five, in which level 5 is fully autonomous — or “partially autonomous.” That means they’re able to handle things like changing lanes, making turns, and navigating parking lots without a driver in the seat. Six Years Ahead Nonetheless, according to Nikkei, the rest of the industry is expecting the same level of technology to make it into cars no sooner than 2025, prompting experts to suggest Tesla is a full six years ahead of the competition. The hold up, according to Nikkei, is likely related to established automakers’ legacy supply chains. Tesla is a newer company that can choose its partners more freely, in other words, effectively leapfrogging the competition.

lol. dude. nobody cares for a market of 500k cars, when they are selling in the range of 10m.

all they need to do is partner with google and they'll get even better 'electronics' and AI for their car. lol.

The market is too small for anyone to take it seriously as of now. Tesla is the most overrated company in recent history.

all this level 2, level 5 bullshit is just meaningless terminology. As long as underwriters figure out how to deal with insurance claims for these autonomous cars, it'll only remain a niche market.

after the legal area is fixed, the market will be flooded with several dozen models of autonomous, and electric vehicles to make your head spin. Tesla should be making profit right now. They can't do it later.

sorry to say this but you might have to re-assess your opinion. apple was also dismissed similarly...then it became the standard.

TESLA might seem over rated because of their inability to match customer fantasies like fully autonomous or 'do all things car'

but it will get there
