FSD v12.x (end to end AI)

[kabin]

Elon at earnings call: "V12 our most advanced version of PSD has gone live to users. In the next several weeks everyone should get it. We want to be slow and cautious for safety. ..."

Yes, that's something for sure. I was hoping for mind blowing positive video reviews.

So Omar is the first OG with V12, and he got it on his HW4 car, that's odd considering Elon's statements about HW4 being behind HW3 by months

Maybe the 6 mo lag is when they optimize for HW4's improved video resolution and newer processor?

Yeah, all the early beta testers do that as standard operating procedure. It is when the normies get it, that the crap hits the fan. If the beta testers don't give a positive take, they risk losing their beta status and youtube revenue share.

Omar says his first two drives were both zero intervention drives. So I guess it's as good as all his v11 drives.

Only 5 miles in total though, the drive descriptions are very positive

Well, as a charter member of the glass-half-full brigade, got fingers crossed.

Been disappointed before, but, y'know, breakthroughs do happen.

“Some bullets I’ve heard that I’ve held back on with #FSD12 until given the go ahead. These are from outside California. Would you agree with these so far
@WholeMarsBlog?
- Huge improvements with roundabouts
- Tricky intersection with a blind spot did great with creeping confidently (didn’t expose bumper)
- Consensus internally is a big improvement
- Merging still needs some work (approx. same as current) but it is using the signal now
- Better at entering clover leafs, especially short ones
- Different profiles now result in different acceleration behavior
- Assertive mode means increased acceleration (and it goes) when necessary
- City streets it will not let you go more than 5mph over the speed limit even if you set the speed to something higher
- Couple of times where it decided to go (and were ready to intervene) only to realize it made the right call
- One time was making a right turn onto a road where traffic was approaching at around 50mph, it started to go with a car coming but knew it was in the left lane so it wouldn't be an issue for us on the right turn”

I hope everyone is keeping their expectations tempered

I mean, we already know v12 isn't post-Beta as Elon Musk had previously claimed. My expectations are pretty tempered. Looking forward to v13 now...

“They indicated the nag has been dialed up to ensure drivers ae paying extra attention.”

1x speed 12.1.2 videos

Looks pretty good overall - caveat that I just skimmed over it and did not watch most of it. Seems a bit aggressive from the stop signs to be honest but I have been complaining about the opposite so kind of a welcome change. Just seemed a bit too fast for the streets at times but I guess the limit is 25. I saw 0-28mph in 3-4 seconds I think?

Very limited, fairly simple scenario of course (mostly uncomplicated San Francisco streets, though it did ok at some slightly tricky things).

Have to wait and see - but looks like a promising incremental improvement to the planner. Many more videos to come most likely; will help make the situation more clear even before anyone actually gets it.

“They indicated the nag has been dialed up to ensure drivers ae paying extra attention.”

Seems like a non-issue. The more the better really.

The nag is so good now - I love it! Moar nag, please. I’m sure it can be even better.
