How George Hotz Hacked Self Driving 

@5:58 Dude literally said that buyers work for them :D

@@kristapszs1 Lol. Voluntary slavery (crowdsourcing) is cool though.

@@madmax404 literally every major product is voluntary slavery, you dont want to be a slave for Tiktok, X or Facebook then dont use it.

he has an awesome channel too, if you're into it.

This did not aged well. 4:90 driving in recommended car that is now impossible to insure since 5 year old can steal it.

@@hagestad tf are you saying

Unfortunately like he said his company and he is more like android, ensuring electric freedom but at the same time that concept really makes their progress slow, and always will be an underdog, and like he said at the end of the vid even though elon have the bigger pie, it still taste sweet as hell haha

@@firstdayversion1015basically what you’re saying is, someone is right only because they share your view? 🤣

lol u obviously haven't known much about him yet. yea he's relatively a "force for good" in the general sense of the word but not because he's good. it's just that he's not bad. he has a nice life. crime (or anything bad) wouldn't get him anything.

'one of the greatest minds of our time' = hilarious statement

@@themodfather9382 Great, buddy! Glad I was able to amuse you, have a nice day for the rest of your life now!

@@dropelaves no

Triple sig

as he mentioned there are 3 2h+ interviews on lex friedman podcast with Hotz.

He streams on twitch every now and then

I don't think he's gonna get any significant hate. It's perfectly natural to be personally excited about a product / company / project that looks genuine. I really hate pushy ads, and this video genuinely made me interested in checking out his products and potentially buying them in future.

It’s evolved beyond assist.

I thought I was the only Kenyan who loves geo

Kenyans oyeee

because George refuses to do any marketing and not even review samples to popular RU-vidrs.

I definitely try to watch them in the past and just get lost after hours and hours of not knowing what's going on 😅 But yes they are fun to watch ... In the background 🤓

The ones that are recommended are because they have egough sensors to be able to do self driving. It just hijacks the sensor outputs

@@emeraldbonsai No, it doesn't. It just sends commands to the CAN bus. Openpilot is still a vision-based system and its vision is from the cameras of Comma devices. That's why it's still Level 2. Level 3 requires environmental awareness so it can do fully autonomous driving. For that Comma devices will require more camera inputs to build a 360° view of the car. Currently, Comma 3x has 360° view of the device only. Recommended cars are recommended because those cars allow more programmatic control (commands through CAN bus) of the car and Openpilot is more compatible with the system of those cars.

Comma uses mad-in-middle attack/control. It sits between car camera and ECU and sends command to steer and control gas/brakes to your car if there's lane keep assist system in your car. Its still referred to as dev kit which is why it isnt "massively" available. They are pretty well known in tech community and do no marketing. Most people using it know know its limitation as a L2 system (driver MUST ALWAYS PAY ATTENTION)

Most of the cars support drive-by-wire (DbW) since 2016. That's how comma controls brake, shift, steer, and throttle

Yeah that's pretty much how it works, but the Comma hardware also taps into the radar systems in supported cars too. Toyota as an example adds safety features as standard even on basic models in the United States. Things like emergency braking, lane keep assist, and smart/adaptive cruise control provide computer control for brakes, steering, and acceleration/radar sensors. I personally ran a Comma unit on a Chevy Bolt EV before I sold the car. It was a very nice system.

@@hjjr31 thanks for this information. Since you have some experience with the system, can you comment on how often you had to make interventions or manual takeover when using the system? This video seems to suggest you can just punch in an address and the car will drive you there with no intervention, which seems to put it ahead of Tesla's FSD system. Is this your experience or have I misinterpreted the video? Also, not sure if you know this at all, but how is a system this compact able to do so much better than Telsa FSD with a tiny fraction of the data and processing power of Tesla's fleet?

A large staff of talented people and writers. I have a history channel and it takes me 3 months to output a five minute video.

comma is an L2 system. The driver assumes all responsibility of any accidents. The comma device comes with a dashcam software installed which cannot control your car. You have to explicitly install the version that can drive it.

What you folks are talking about as "commaAI" is, in fact, GNU/commaAI, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus commaAI. CommaAI is not an autonomous driving system unto itself, but rather another crucial component of a fully functioning GNU autonomous driving platform made practical by the GNU core components, algorithms, and essential software components that constitute a comprehensive autonomous driving system as defined by the automotive industry standards. Many vehicle manufacturers utilize a modified version of the GNU/commaAI system every day, without realizing it. Through a unique series of developments, the version of the autonomous driving platform that is widely used today is often referred to as "commaAI," and many of its users are unaware that it is essentially the GNU autonomous driving system, developed by the GNU Autonomous Driving Project. There genuinely is a commaAI, and these individuals are implementing it, but it is just one part of the broader system they rely on. CommaAI is the self-driving technology: the software in the system that controls the vehicle's operations and responses to various driving scenarios. This self-driving technology is an essential part of an autonomous driving platform but can't function in isolation. It can only operate within the context of a complete autonomous driving system. CommaAI is commonly used in conjunction with the GNU autonomous driving system: the complete system is essentially GNU with commaAI integrated, or GNU/commaAI. All the so-called "commaAI" implementations are genuinely distributions of GNU/commaAI. Thanks for taking the time to collaborate with me, your friendly GNU+commaAI enthusiast, Richard Stallman

Man get a cover made out of silicone. Simple

Pretty much everything in dashboards and steering wheels etc in cars are black because black is a neutral color that helps reduce glare and reflections, which can be dangerous/distracting while driving esp at night. If the device was white it would be lot more likely to see it's reflection on the windshield which is just a no-no for car stuff overall.

It can use BSM.
