It’s fairly rambling but he touches on that exact point several times most specifically here at the 2 minute mark:
“Organizationally it can be very distracting. If all you want to get to work is vision resources are on it and you’re actually making forward progress. That is the sensor with the most bandwidth the most constraints and you’re investing fully into that and you can make that extremely good. You only have a finite amount of spend of focus across different facets of the system.”
Which was from this section: Q: “Is it more bloat in the data engine?”
“100%” (Q:“is it a distraction?”) “These sensors can change over time.” “Suddenly you need to worry about it. And they will have different distributions. They contribute noise and entropy into everything and they bloat stuff”.
Even earlier he says:
“These sensors aren’t free…” list of reasons including “you have to fuse them into the system in some way. So that like bloats the organization” “The cost is high and you’re not particularly seeing it if your just a computer vision engineer and I am just trying to improve my network.”
