That's pretty funny. Anybody who actually would have bought FSD will instead end up buying it later, when it costs more. For some, this might be a reasonable and preferable approach. For others, well, they'll be thinking of you when they part with the extra cash. Of course the truly smart ones will have put the money in TSLA, and when they pull it out will have made enough profit to buy an entire car with what they would have originally spent on FSD.
Nah, and if someone genuinely wants it, I'm not gonna tell 'em not to. More like if someone's on the fence, I tell 'em my experience and say I wouldn't buy it again personally.
Too many people with money burning a hole in their pocket in my neck of the woods for me to do that. If we collected data who buys FSD, we would see a strong correlation with amount of disposable income.
That would also cover people buying Teslas, so I'm not sure there would be any information content in that.
I agree this is pretty good for what it is. My expertise is the aircraft world, and things like airworthiness specs are written the same way, although at a much lower lever. I could see SAE eventually working with governments and industry to come up with a much more detailed set of specs that defined specific low level tasks in much more detail; e.g., what was expected of a compliant system in lane keeping accuracy, including allowable failure rates.
Thanks. FYI, the "Safety first for Automated Driving" white paper does go into more specifics on the standards. https://www.daimler.com/documents/innovation/other/safety-first-for-automated-driving.pdf
Curious, is there any online betting site, on whether Tesla will allow/release "attention-free" FSD usage in 2021?
At large/all the time? Not a chance. On select roads/times of day? Maybe. Depends on when we get the beta.
