Curious if he was on FSD or not. 🤷 Also wonder if they got him out before his car incinerated itself, or AFTER.

So many of these videos, you wonder if it's some issue with the camera and FSD processing, or a glitch, or strangeness in their control algorithm. (AI hallucination?!?)

@ai6yr I admit I don't know those specifically, but I really don't think they use so called "AI" in the way you mean it there (god I wish people hadn't let the scammers push that out there as such a general term.) "Vision" or whatever it's called is way too slow run locally (and any uploading to servers would add dangerous amounts of latency and risk if connections falter — plus it would pretty much take a dedicated server for each vehicle) for use in a car at car speeds.

Realistically speaking it must be using a different type of tech. Something adaptive and probably processing only pieces at a time. (For example, you likely only need to poll the road itself every few moments for approaching potholes or whatever but traffic on your side frequently and maybe the other side less so?)
