Apparently they are (cant find the tweet but pretty sure I'm not hallucinating).

Good thing someone was here to QUASH that misunderstanding!! (grins and runs away)

Quosh not squash .. you squash flies (and moths, not myths :) Besides, are you sure? It was certainly negotiated when the NHTSA were "discussing" FSD way back in 10.x days ....

Interesting if you watch the screen carefully just as the car plows forward the "snake" is shifting back and forth between left and right forks in the road. For some reason the car wasn't able to make its mind up .. I wonder if it would have recovered if he hands intercepted. Though I found it...

Well there are a LOT of owners on these forums that have cars with that mileage and above. There are other reasons that Tesla limit the warranty other than the car will fail at 100,000 miles (it wont).

That's more or less it. There are many parameters for follow distance, including weather, speed, mode etc. The training then is to generate the correct follow distance based on these values, using a dataset that provides the needed mapping. I'm not saying this is what Tesla do, the actual...

But it's slightly more complex than that because Tesla are not using (so far as I can tell) semantic versioning. The major version more or less changes on a whim of Elon, so the team makes do with minor/release versions, which means that they may or may sneak feature changes into "bug fix"...

It's done that for me too. So +1 for rabbit-kind :)

Not true, though I understand your point. You are not training/testing 4 (or N) distinct networks. You are training ONE network to respond correctly to numerous inputs, the "mode" being just one of very many more.. The "mode" is no more special than (say) the distance from a car in front of you...

Yes, it's' more or less this. Many poisons can affect the brain, and in particular cause its tracking between (say) balance and the visual system to get out of sync. The best survival response is to get rid of the poison, hence vomiting. So it's not the ear per se, but the brains interpretation...

Yeah that all sounds familiar .. as you note it's something that they usually grow out of (just about the time they grow into all the other things you were fearing!!).

No, the point is that the value is different depending on the buyers perspective and interest. I might value FSD very highly, and think I can get extra $$$ for it when I sell, but if a buyer never wants to go near FSD, he will not feel the FSD premium is worth it. For TESLA, as the "buyer" in a...

Does he look inside the car (e.g. at a screen) or outside? When I was young I had bad motion sickness and it was always caused by looking down at (e.g.) a book etc.

But that IS the value you perceive. Sure, you try to negotiate, but if the seller wont budge and you do not see the value at that price, you dont buy.

The "preferences"(like Chill mode etc) typically become inputs to the NN, with appropriate training data for each mode, though this can be expensive if there are many such settings (one reason Tesla keep them simple). Dont forget the NN doesnt just get camera data .. it also get map info...
