Autopilot and v7 coming this Thursday! (15-10-15)
- Thread starter MileHighMotoring
- Start date
I don't think anybody doubts that that is what was intended. I suppose the optimistic view is that they are issuing a half-system beta release in order to trial it more widely and to get us accustomed to the limits of the system before allowing us to remove our hands.
Let's see what we really get tomorrow.
I think the comments still hold for the Full Release of AP. Since they are calling it BETA, I think they can get away with saying that it's totally still coming, but Tesla requires you to have your hands on the wheel (notice how it's not AP)
O crap, route planning is also beta. We're all gonna die...

Maybe instead of a line they could use leaves growing on a vine or some such
As much as I hate the idea of losing a side panel to display that info, I can sort of understand it. The one that REALLY irks me is the time and temperature, they take almost no space right now, but you're going to have to use 1/3 of your dash to see them in the new version? I just can't come up with any form of an excuse for that one.
On my commute to work today, I saw a sign that said road closed 10/16 - 10/18. I had a moment to decide to turn left, right, or go straight and quickly glanced to see what today was. This won't happen often, but when you need the date/time, it was nice that it was right there and took little room.

Route planning is so useless it's not even funny.
And it looks the hyper-hyped stuff in v7 is no difference.
So you get a mostly maybe somewhat useful system in return for replacing your perfectly fine UI with the work of the summer intern who was fired at GM?
I don't think so. I'll call Tesla to explicitly request not to receive 7.x for the time being.
My son forever makes jokes about that. If there was ever an autodrive tied into the Tesla nav system we'd never know where we'd wind up.

The removed (or temporarily removed) Autopilot page, as several screen captures.
Edit: Screen captures deleted, as by the time I had posted them others had as well, and someone had posted a link to a Google cached page. Oh well. I tried.

Defensive much?
There is no going back, unless Tesla forces you to downgrade (see the couple of "mistaken" beta deliveries). Which means once you have the <censored bad word> UI, you're stuck with it.
And since nothing in the press kit is even the least bit interesting to me, I'd rather stay on the UI that I appreciate.
Full autonomous in 3 years? Must be level 3, not level 4. Even considering Elon Musk Time.

To be fair, considering how the autonomous technology has evolved, level 3 autonomous might be out in 5 years (aka 3 years Elon Musk Time).

The car lacks inside camera/sensors besides the steering wheel to tell if you are paying attention or not. Until that happens, expect stuff like this.

Brian,
I think you are starting to see fatigue set in with more and more people or at least more and more forum fanistas.

"Who you calling defensive?"
Anyway, I'm not defending anything. I just think you're a bit early for the pitchforks. We don't have real data from real firmware in the hands of "normal", real customers yet. You've already declared armageddon.I was mostly amused to Elon admitting he had a problem with the linear flow of time.
