With the introduction of V12, I had expressed a thought on the V12 thread that this will lead to development of Autopilot that is not only localized but also personalized. With that, I then went ahead and stopped using FSDb on my car for over a month. My car has V11.4.4 on 2023.32.9
Most of my driving is very repetitive - same destinations, using the same roads pretty much every day.
After over a month, I turned to using FSDb again, and the vehicle behaved very much the way I have driven on those roads, especially the following items. Keep in mind that most of the city roads I drive are 3 lane on each side. A couple of them are 2 lanes on each side. Here are some key situations:
1. when FSDb made a right turn from the rightmost lane of the 3 lanes, it would turn into the rightmost lane. When I drive, I make a turn from the right most lane to the left most lane. In the last 2 days of FSDb driving, it has done exactly that, and not what it used to do.
2. FSDb used to either stay on the left most lane or switch between lanes to keep the fastest speed. I always keep in the center lane, and then switch to either the left or right depending on where I am turning to. I do this switch right after the intersection prior to my turn. FSDb is now doing pretty much the same. It is keeping in the center lane even if the right or left lane is empty. It is not switching like it used to.
3. I stop my turn signal when I am at a traffic light and I have the red light. I don't like the turn signal going tik-tok tik-tok for 3 minutes. FSDb is now also doing so. IT stops signaling if it is at a red light and have to make a turn.
I will keep observing and see what else it is learning from my driving style.
