Life update: It’s been kinda hard the past two weeks. I’ve been trying to live normally but honestly it’s still hard. Been in and out of hospitals, figuring out surgery (keeps getting delayed), trying to work (hard to focus and sleep), travel for conferences, run Touchdown (was supposed to start fundraising two weeks ago). I’m very lucky to be alive, I was worried I was gonna go blind in my left eye. I was a passenger and FSD was on, so it’s honestly just made me really curious. How does perception actually work? How does the car identify and classify objects? Is all the inference done on the vehicle? Imma always support Elon Musk and I’ll always have tremendous respect for everyone at Tesla and Tesla_AI pushing the boundaries of engineering to help humanity. Engineering is extremely hard and no matter how hard you try you can’t get all edge cases. But I genuinely want to understand the engineering challenges behind FSD and autonomous driving. Is there anyone at Tesla_AI or Tesla I can talk to go thru this? I want to see how I can help make autonomous driving safer.
