Tesla's fleet provides a unique dataset of driver actions.
Tesla's fleet provides a unique dataset of driver actions.
The speaker highlights a key competitive advantage for Tesla: its fleet of consumer vehicles collects video data paired with the driver's actual actions (steering, braking), which most other companies lack.
