00:04Ashok Eliswamy said,
00:06Adding LiDAR, radar, or HD maps
00:08would not solve the core challenge of unsupervised autonomous driving.
00:13Speaking at the CyberCab event on Thursday,
00:16Eliswamy said Tesla views self-driving primarily as an intelligence problem
00:20because vehicles must predict what will happen next,
00:22something sensors alone cannot determine.
00:25Tesla has instead pursued an AI-first, camera-based approach
00:30that uses images from around the vehicle to navigate safely.
00:34Elon Musk also highlighted the CyberCab's rare earth-free motor,
00:38while Deepwater Asset Management's Gene Munster
00:41said he expects Tesla to deploy 300 CyberCabs in Austin during the first month.
