Systems and methods are directed to an autonomy computing system of an autonomous vehicle. The autonomy computing system can include first functional circuitry configured to generate a first output associated with a first autonomous compute function of the autonomous vehicle based on sensor data using first neural networks. The autonomy computing system can include second functional circuitry configured to generate a second output associated with the first autonomous compute function of the autonomous vehicle based on the sensor data and neural networks. The autonomy computing system can include monitoring circuitry configured to determine a difference between the first output of the first functional circuitry and the second output of the second functional circuitry. The autonomy computing system can include a vehicle control system configured to generate vehicle control signals for the autonomous vehicle based on the outputs.
