    The verge Vergecast podcast did a piece on RAM, and it’s well worth a listen. They talk about all sorts of RAM related things, the RAM in a Cybertruck being one of them. Sorry, I don’t remember the details but I remember it being lower than I thought; 8GB, maybe 16gb. Give it a listen.

      8gb is much more than i would expect.

      Like wth would the car’s shitty computer even be doing to use 8gb? They aren’t playing games or running local big machine learning models. Highly doubt that even the crappiest spyware would be able to benefit from so many resources

          ah, i think you got me - in my mind object detection and depth perception can use this much

          Downvotes aside, all swasticars have the built in capability for their “self driving” and that processing is performed locally on an onboard computer with ram.

        infotainment is effectively a pc. How much ram would you expect in a pc running all that? Everything else probably isn’t much, but that system will have a lot. Often the backseat has sysems which need more.
