As of 2013 Google's self-driving cars collected about 1 GB per second of data [1], today it must be even more. There is no way Telsa can upload nearly as much data from customer's cars. I also belief that their team is smaller and they started much later.
You shouldn't need to upload the entire 1gb. The central AI can query the cars to get just the bits it has questions about. Part of the AI's job is learning which data to care about and which data to ignore.
The fact that the trees got new leaves again this year and it's dark at 2am and the sign at the Chinese Restaurant is still red don't to be relayed.
More data isn't automatically better. The hard part isn't getting some magical quantity of data the hard part is asking the right questions of it.
A self driving system needs to solve this problem (the frame problem) anyway. So you get intelligence compression for "free".
Rudeness? Insults? I said "this is naive", not "you are naive."
Surely we're all adults and can talk about ideas candidly without having to beat around the bush and tell each other little white lies.
A while ago you told someone, "You speak in broad generalizations that miss many points and make many faulty assumptions. "
Any difference between your statement and mine comes down to how individuals respond to specific words. How about we rise above such pettiness and focus on the subject matter?
You've added nothing to this discussion and have wasted people's time.
Very first sentence of your source says "Google’s self-driving car gathers 750 megabytes of sensor data per SECOND!", here goes one fourth of the alleged 1GB.
Then this is about sensor data or raw data, but there is thing known as compression which is quite common and can shrink size by an order of magnitude.
