Part 12/13:
Tesla's secret weapon, according to industry insiders, is speed—specifically in processing, reaction, and data handling. While others add sensors like lidar to supposedly enhance safety, Tesla argues that the reaction latency—how fast a vehicle responds—is far more critical.
The efficiency of Tesla’s AI chips, combined with software that skips interpretative layers and processes visual input directly, gives Tesla cars the ability to react hundreds of times faster than competitors. This technological advantage not only accelerates development but also dramatically improves safety, potentially saving lives.
