  Don’t know why this has so much downvotes, but clearly people do love to hate something they don’t understand.

  The M series chips that Apple has is hands down amazing. Low power usage, fast, and doesn’t heat up like any other PC chip. This translates to low fan noise, no laptop/surface burn, long battery life. It’s also somewhat of a contender for light local AI use. To put the cherry on top, the build quality supersedes any other brands on the market by scale and price. One would be foolish to not get a Mac laptop if you don’t want to dabble with Linux.

  Any car company that relies on only 1 type of sensor or only 1 sensor on a car for autonomous driving is a fool. The key terminology is “sensor fusion”, where you have multiple types of sensors to generate an accurate model of the world around the car which is vastly superior to what a human can perceive. LiDAR is only one sensor. Add in cameras and radar which many cars already have and you’ll have a car that can’t be fooled by just mirrors.
