I mean, the argument is humans do it only with cameras.

But we have a few other things.

Our eyes and our inertial measurement units are very well connected.

So there is no disconnect that if you jerk the wheel, you know what your vision is going to do.

And as a human, I just cities, cities and self-driving cars. I worked on autonomous vehicles and not just underwater, but self-driving large off-road vehicles. And. We did it almost entirely with cameras. But part of our goal for the future was dealing with stop signs and pedestrians. And I spent a lot of time with the machine learning systems and the reinforcement learning systems. And it...

It's a hard problem and I don't know how they're going to solve city driving in a way that is truly safe and doesn't have systemic failures. That's one of the problems with medical devices. When we talk about doing embedded systems and medical devices, it's usually there's some element of, oh my goodness, there's so much documentation. There's so much documentation the FDA needs.

And that's primarily to make us understand the ramifications of the points we're making. And the reason for that is because Oh, I've started this in the wrong place. Okay. Moving backwards. If you work on airplane stuff, there are different levels of concern. If you take down a small airplane, a Cessna, it may crash into something important like a school.

And so you have a certain amount of damage you can do with a small plane.
And so you have a certain amount of damage you can do with a small plane.
You have a much bigger amount of damage you can do with a larger plane. Medical devices are a little confusing because, and safety critical devices, medical or vehicles, have a problem that you can have thousands of them in the field when they start to fail. And so your problem is not that you have hurt one person.

Your problem is that your software has decided that the 29th of February is not a real day and has gone nuts and is now on its murdering spree. And that's what you need to avoid. And so the thing with cars is that we keep trying to make them better in small ways, but I feel like we've kind of reached a local minimum that we're not going to get better with just cameras.
