Erm, there's the word "beta" in the name. Of course you want to test it with someone in the driver's seat.

They're ahead of other players because they have:

1. Hundreds of thousands of cars on the streets with FSD hardware

2. More data than anyone else

3. Their own neural network accelerator chip.

Given this is tech site - can you please tell me there Tesla is storing this data? Video is very expensive to store and process, so if they have this massive data advantage, where are their data centers?

I’d like to remind you as well that Google, aka waymo, had their nn accelerators for half a decade already.

I don't work at Tesla, so I don't know where they have their clusters, but there are obviously many cloud providers who would be more than happy to sell you as many petabytes of storage as you would like to buy.

That's true, but you need something mobile and low power for a car. I don't know if Waymo really has an equivalent there.

Also, it's an advantage for Tesla to have their own regardless, because of cost. Tesla can probably make their FSD computer for $200. If you are a third party and you want to buy Waymo's solution, they will sell it to you for thousands.
