Ex-Tesla Autopilot head calls vision-only a ‘weird religious stance’

GM Chief Product Officer Sterling Anderson, who ran Tesla’s Autopilot program in 2015 and 2016, says dropping radar for a camera-only self-driving system is “a weird religious stance that ignores physics.”

It’s the bluntest rebuke of Tesla’s vision-only bet yet from someone who helped build the original Autopilot. And it lands while Tesla is pushing camera-only Cybercabs into driverless service in Austin.
