    it failed at something everything would have failed at.

    Lidar first started getting deployed commercially in cars in 2017.

    it is better today.

    Teslas are still using the same sensors today that they were back then.

      Maybe there was 1 or 2 consumer cars in 2017, but it wasn’t normal, hence my earlier comment. They were all typically radar and vision.

      Its still vision yes, but the cameras were upgraded in HW4 vehicles.

      Edit: i should clarify, for the typical brands people could buy in north America. I actually have no idea what Chinese cars had in them back then.
