Part 3/9:
The conversation highlighted an essential comparison between Optimus and FSD. One of the main arguments presented was that while the FSD requires more complex systems and carries higher stakes (given that a malfunction could lead to severe accidents), Optimus could operate under less stringent requirements, allowing for feasible initial deployments sooner. As one analyst noted, even if Optimus gets stuck, it can simply halt and reassess, a far cry from the implications of FSD under critical driving situations where safety is paramount.
