Like Elon’s camera based self driving does it also make a lot of mistakes?
I bet modern radar can tell the difference between a bird, plane, baseball, and missile, but a camera based one is full of false positives.
Widely available image recognition software can tell the difference between birds, planes, baseballs and missiles already.
It might, but I'm not sure how much of an issue a false positive is. It's not like Iran has an airforce and it's not like there a bunch of civilian planes flying over head.
Also, modern radar can't always tell the difference between a bird and a plane. Especially when dealing with stealth vehicles.
