      A small advice, you can use a wide angle lens if you're filming interiors (car, office). Makes your video look better, and me less nauseous from motion sickness. Love your videos, cheers!

    Love it when two engineers talk without the BS. IMHO, George actually undersold the Comma a bit. I have a Prius Prime using OP with ZSS (a better, community created steering sensor) and I use mine all the time not just for highways, but even in city traffic - even for longitudinal - which is SOOOO much better that Toyota’s automatic cruise control - especially in stop n’ go traffic.

    After having it a year in my Subi I forget how mind-blowing it is to ride in an openpilot car - thanks for the reminder! Did a 2 hour trip from San Diego to Apple Valley - at this point I just take it for granted, hop on the highway, engage it, and (mostly) sit back and enjoy the scenery.
    At this point my only source of anxiety and the source of most of my disengagements are not the capabilities of openpilot, but the unpredictability of the bad (notoriously distracted socal) drivers around me. While most cases you can't help what the other driver does, hypothetically the system could incorporate some defensive driving. The one stand-out is blindspot avoidance. Lateral could adjust its follow distance slightly if it detects it has placed itself in the blindspot of the neighboring vehicle.

      The side stepping of all the red tape is pretty incredible. It seems odd they are 3D printing everything and building this all from stock phones they buy in bulk but then if you consider that all of this allows them to say it's a kit and people are just doing what they feel like doing with their cars and their phones is interesting. It suggests that before we live in a world where robotic taxi fleets zip you from place to place we will live in a world where a car someone got when they were 16 has now been upgraded to drive itself and even after being pulled over by the cops for looking at your phone while driving it's unclear to the cop or the judge or the government that some tech was being trusted to drive that car. Compare that to the regulatory nightmare everyone else deals with and it would seem there is a major legal overhead savings in the comma AI approach. But will it really provide enough of what the user wants? Well they say they are android. That they aren't iOS. And that it's an eco system that will ultimately prevail. That's a great pitch but we will have to wait and see how extensive the "let's get my car to drive itself" market ends up being. It's not zero so that's good. And that means that Comma AI is likely to succeed enough to get the the next phase where their system can begin to get more sophisticated.

    i remember seeing a sci-fi movie similar to this. and the plot twist near the end is where george's character finds out to be elon's son but only after elon leaves earth to a one way mission to mars..
