An interesting new development is taking place at Tesla (TSLA) in terms of the Semi-truck. The tech & AI-based automaker has started ground-truthing validation to enable autonomous features and Full Self-Driving (FSD) on the Tesla Semi. Yesterday, a Tesla owner and enthusiast spotted a Tesla Semi in Sunnyvale, California. The odd-looking equipment installed on the cabin’s exterior grabbed Danny’s attention a little more. Interestingly, the apparatus attached to the Tesla Semi is used for ground-truthing. Ground truthing is a machine learning process that validates real-world data for AI machine learning. This data is based on ground realities rather than assumptions or remote observations. The research paper on the ACM Digital Library explains Ground Truthing as: Ground truth is mainly used in supervised approaches of machine learning and describes the process of data labelling and the creation of a ground truth data set. But in generative and unsupervised methods the term can also be found. Although the term then takes a different shape, it always hints at the fundamental fact, that symbols inside a computer need to be grounded in the physical and empirical world. By tracing the term’s conceptual genealogy and by presenting different use cases. This is not the first time a Tesla vehicle has been seen with this type of equipment. Tesla used similar equipment on Model Y Robotaxis last year before announcing a geofenced service in Austin, Texas. Tesla Model Ys were once again spotted with the same data validation hardware on the city streets of Austin, TX, even after the launch of the Robotaxi Service. The Tesla Semi-truck is designed for the future. It has a very different cabin design with the steering wheel in the center. As Tesla is progressing on the Full Self-Driving front, its future vehicles need to be capable of as many
