I think one explanation for why they don't move FSD owners to the Beta branch with the additional features disabled might be that the system is 100% different from non-beta, and can't perform up to par (or, as reliably as non-beta does).

Again, I must say - more than a year after my original post, AP is still unimproved, and now other carmakers have caught up with Tesla even more. (I am obviously not counting the ""FSD"" beta that very very very few people have access to - also it's obvious even from the videos that are...

What a constructive comment! BLONDES AMIRITE GUYS??!!

I'm in awe of how well Tesla has been able to sell people their "we have a lot of cars on the road so we're unmatchable in FSD advancement" line. While it's an advantage for sure, just having the data is completely meaningless unless you can use it. Not saying they aren't using it, but just...

a friend of mine got FSD and it was Frame Shift Drive and he did launch mode and he launched out of the solar system and kinda died

Interesting! Mine went a completely different way... when paying for FSD I didn't know it actually stood for "Fifty Shades Darker"

My #1 reason would be that Model S is not a good value compared to 3/Y.

... do the cars actually read speed limits or are they basing it off of map info? AP1 was actually reading those, but I know that for a veeeeery long time AP2 didn't. Not sure if it does now.

Don't forget the coast to coast demo in late 2017!

a quantum leap would mean literally the smallest possible amount of discrete improvement, so it's not so hard to believe :D

If one is 1 in 10,000 and the other is independently also 1 in 10,000 - if you combine the two, statistically, for something to slip from both it'd have to hit a 1 in 10,000, and then another 1 in another 10,000, making it 1 in 100 million. However, these things can't really be statistically...

I've driven both systems. I've made a separate thread about this, but to sum it up the functionality NoA brings makes the wrong decision, or the correct decision but at the wrong time, with enough frequency to introduce a level of anxiety that persists even when it does make the right decision...

Based on the incredibly, incredibly slow speed of actual, usable Autopilot enhancements and how functionally AP at the end of 2020 is 99% the same as the AP I had in the beginning of 2017, I will go out on a limb and say that Tesla fans are overvaluing the whole "We got a million cars on the...

1. We can all agree that lower prices are better for us. 2. We can all agree that no matter when the price is dropped, there will always have been people who 'just bought' a Tesla with previous prices. Hence, this is a good thing, and can't be done in a better or different way. Consider if...

They didn't pay me any interest. In fact, I had a loan on the car that I had to make payments on, and since the interest is front loaded in payments I ended up paying a lot of interest (just a few hundred dollars probably, but still) on a loan on a car that I had returned months prior
