Mind-boggling talk by @karpathy of @Tesla about how they build the #autopilot:
• pure camera vision (without LIDAR) generates petabytes of video from a fleet of cars
• a supercomputer (5th fastest in the world) combined with human labelers trains a neural network
• which then “cooks” a compact instruction set uploaded over 4G to run on a custom SOC drive controller in each car (in real mode for 10 years or shadow mode for 1 000 years of driving)
• re-feeds results back into the production loop… for millions of kilometers.
Also, unit tests, simulations, #code modularity… an amazingly open sharing of info! 😮
