Super Prompt: Generative AI
Examining generative AI—not to hype breakthroughs or warn of apocalypse, but to understand how things actually work. Mental models over hot takes. Technology specifics over marketing fog.
Welcome to Super Prompt. Hosted by Tony Wan, ex-Silicon Valley insider.

Super Prompt: Generative AI
Self-Driving Cars Part 1
I speak with my friend Maroof Farook who is an AI Engineer at Nvidia. [Note: Maroof’s views are his and not that of his employer.] We discuss what’s different about the self-driving approaches of Tesla and Alphabet/Google/Waymo. We cover the phases of autonomous driving, from level 1 to level 5, the capabilities of each phase, and at which phase we can eat a cheeseburger while our car drives itself. Finally, we discuss why one of the most challenging problems of self-driving cars are stop signs.
