I’m naive to the 10x gain value benefit to self driving. I’m excited for it nevertheless.

Less than $1k for better cruise control/lane centering. Now, less than $2k for LIKELY some self driving magic SOONISH. All-ish open source.

I find comma.ai’s work pretty fascinating compared to the bigger fish in the self-driving world. There’s something quite human about it versus the Waymo’s and Tesla’s of the world.
