Isn't my watch always with me? Why not use that instead of have some new device?

I find it interesting that they quantify the improvement on speed and number of forecast-ed scenarios but lack details on how it results in improved accuracy of the forecast per:

``` WeatherNext 2 can generate forecasts 8x faster and with resolution up to 1-hour. This breakthrough is enabled by a new model that can provide hundreds of possible scenarios. ```

As an end user, all I care is that there's one accurate forecasted scenario.

They integrated "MetNet-3" into Google products and my personal perception was accuracy decreased.

how do you do that?

I'm assuming the "Gemini 2.5" referenced on this site is Flash, not Pro. Pro is insane, and 3.0 is just around the corner.

reAmp (https://re-amp.ru/) is a faithful recreation as well, but no updates since 2020 (and not OSS)

If this takes off, I think you've coined a new term there with "Quantum Sync Circle."

I got my first Tesla last year and my first trip with FSD was just after the launch of V13, so I could not compare it to earlier versions. But I was shocked by how good it was. I completed a 800 miles trip with a handful of interventions, most or all of them likely unnecessary. Even with rain the system worked well. I don’t understand how the system was not able to see this obstacle and slow down or change lanes. Did they have traffic tailgating? I can see some edge cases where there’s really no way to avoid something like this safely. In any case it’s pretty unfortunate and it will make me be even more cautious when using FSD.

It's because anecdotal experience means very little. In ~2021, these vehicles could almost never make it from A to B without a safety-critical intervention.

That they can today doesn't mean they can do the same route 10,000 times without a safety-critical intervention. In fact, public tracking indicates Tesla's numbers are MUCH lower than that.

Well, I have to admit that your friend has a point. Humans are bad at reacting quickly and correctly to unexpected situations, and some debris large enough to damage your car showing up from out of nowhere after several hours of boring driving along a largely straight highway with little traffic is definitely one of these situations. But a self-driving system worth its salt should always be alert, scanning the road ahead, able to identify dangerous debris, and react accordingly. So, different pair of shoes...

The humans in the vehicle spotted it fine, and we should not tolerate self-driving systems that are only as good as the worst of us.

A friend of mine who loves Tesla watched this video and said "many humans would have hit that". I feel we'll be hearing a lot of that excuse.

Also apparently the secretary of state can just wave the fee?

Sounds like it's just corruption as a service.

Indeed. They'll use this to hurt companies they want to hurt.
