I think the AI that controls the wipers is called Deep Rain. For me it works pretty well but my cavil is that if the rain is light it doesn't wipe fast enough. So before the next wipe the vision is obscured by, say, 20%. This is a bit annoying and my wife is always saying "wipers please", which rather defeats the purpose of the AI if you have to push the wiper button.
Is there any way of catching Elon's attention on this or is there a known solution (apart from switching to Manual mode)?
The other point about this which is intriguing is whether the software sends info to Tesla if you do push the wipe button. After all, the AI is supposed to adequately control the wipers and if you intervene then this would probably be an indication that it needed to up its game. If the software sent details of Deep Rain's assessment with the note that there was a driver override then that would appear to be the perfect learning moment - "DR thought that this situation did not warrant a wipe (herewith all of the internal variables and probability assessments) but the human didn't agree" A perfect edge case which could improve the AI.
