Agreed. I find it interesting that FSD makes minor route changes along the way and I view that behavior as a feature, not a problem. Yes, I am most certainly having fun with this as robotics [and now AI] has been one of my life-long passions since I was about 5 years old (in 1963). I really...

The scenario you described where the Nav says one thing and FSD does something different is what I refer to as "Spouse Mode". I have noticed that behavior on several occasions. In fact, to add to my Unexpected Behavior where FSD just starts driving with no specific destination, as FSD was...

I had several on my 733 mile drive from Detroit to Minneapolis last week.

Yes, that is the exact scenario I described in another post. I refer to it as an "Unexpected Behavior". It is 100% reproducible and the second time it happened I just let it drive by itself for a while to see where it would go. After about 7 miles, I disengaged FSD and went back home. Don't know...

Agreed. One reason I was concerned about the car moving unexpectedly, particularly from where it was stopped, is that I was looking for something on the floor behind me and there were children playing in the street (to my left and behind my car). The car started moving when I was distracted and...

Drives straight. No turns.

Correct. Everything was "expected" behavior up to and including me pushing "End Trip". It was when the car unexpectedly started moving again without my permission. Hence, it made an incorrect assumption that it should keep driving. Think of it this way: what if it were a human driver with you...

And if it cannot turn right, it will make three consecutive left turns (because two wrongs don't make a right but three lefts do)

I would not say my expectations are wrong per se - my driving behavioral expectations come from 51 years of driving nearly a million miles in most every kind of traffic in every major US city and a few race tracks. I would categorize the behaviors of FSD as Proper, Questionable, Unexpected (or...

Even though it may be an "expected" behavior, IMHO it is not an "acceptable" behavior. At a minimum the car should stop at the destination and park its little behind right there until you tell it to go someplace else.. it should not initiate driving IMHO. If it does, the least it could do is...

The later - it seemed to have a destination in mind. More precisely, it proceeded down my street to a T. To the right was a dead end. So it turned left and drove one block to another T. Either left or right would have been fine. But it turned on the right blinker well before we got to the...

Thankyou for that clarification. Personally, I am somewhat relieved that my CT is a few years out as that will give me time to figure out how I'm going to tell my wife that I have one on order;^)

Here's an FSD 12 behavior I have not heard about yet so please tell me if any of you have experienced this. I left from my house and navigated¹ to Point A about 1 mile away using FSD - no problems. From there I navigated to Point B about 5 miles from Point A, again, all under FSD control - only...

I believe the reservation numbers span the Tesla automotive products so they might seem somewhat random. In August 2021 I placed my order for a Model Y and a CyberTruck and those two reservation numbers were very close together which makes sense based on my previous statement. As for why the...
