Yes there was a ton of interesting stuff. Would be worth its own thread I'd think, though not everyone has an hour and a half to listen to a podcast.
The takeaways for me were:
1. Autonomy roll out in the first quarter of 2019
2. Separation of autonomy from supercruise (I thought there was more collaboration)
3. Amount of logistics (maintenance, charging, etc.) involved in the roll out
4. The exact sensor suite needed (5 lidar, 14 cameras, 3 articulating radar, 8 radar, and 10 ultrasonic radar)
5. Integration of the sensor and hardware with production Bolts (not the same as a standard Bolt)
6. Cost main consideration for customers of autonomous vehicles (forget brands)
7. Aircraft approach to autonomous car including more modular and easily replaced items such as seats
Brave new world here for auto manufacturers.
