I rather suspect that the Tesla AP group is is high pressure place to work right now.

Do you want my honest answer? I doubt it. Will I give it to you anyway? Probably. Are my kids ready to head out for school? Not even close.Well, initially there were many on the forum that made excuses or claimed "you just don't know how Tesla works!". But for the rest of us, the situation was revealed in the actual presentations and videos released. Some of us sort wheat from chaff for a living, and the clues that hype was the only thing being revealed were pretty clear.
But, I don't think complaints will serve much purpose at this point. That Tesla isn't currently capable of duplicating AP1 performance, let alone "enhanced" AP is now self-evident. What would you like them to do? They are working to recover as quickly as possible. Did they grossly overstate their capability? Yes. Did they hype the situation to cover up the huge setback that Mobileye's departure created? It appears so. Did they knowingly mislead customers? Obviously.
But they are doing what they should to develop their own system as quickly as possible. You can always buy a CPO AP1 car until this situation is resolved. If another maker starts shipping Waymo-equipped cars, and Tesla is still as far from "full self driving" as they appear to be now, buy a Waymo car. Until such an option is actually in the market, my suggesting is relax and enjoy what you have.
I couldn't agree more! Was hoping they would have released functional highway speed AP before giving us half baked versions of both.All I can say is that I'm glad they are at least doing fairly frequent updates. They would be better served delivering functionality that is useable. For example, 35mph local autosteer isn't really something anyone cared about as much as highway autosteer are usable speeds (65mph+). I guess we'll see what they do in another 2 weeks...
t's gathering data all the time
I had a somewhat similar reaction - AP2 did great on my first try, but the road looks like this:
After feeling great about the update, giggling like a kid all the way down the beach road, I decided to try a challenge, Colington Road.
It was pretty much unusable. Any curve more than ten degrees, and it would try to run off the road. I'm sure it will get better, but kind of surprised at how poorly it handles curves.

I rather suspect that the Tesla AP group is is high pressure place to work right now. And I'm quite sure that Tesla would have preferred to continue down the road further with Mobileye, had it not been that ME was trying to blackmail.... sorry... ENCOURAGE, them to sign up with ME for eternity.

By comparison on AP1, I just tried this one againAny curve more than ten degrees, and it would try to run off the road.
In my short experience with the newest update, it corrects itself on "tighter" turns a little late but it still does correct itself.
This is starting to get comical. I hope the joke ends soon.I had a somewhat similar reaction - AP2 did great on my first try, but the road looks like this:
