Full Self Driving ability by end of the YEAR ?

[H2050]

Technically this thread will always be relevant as we do the countdown every year.

Tesla defines what it will do:

The system is designed to be able to conduct short and long distance trips with no action required by the person in the driver’s seat. For Superchargers that have automatic charge connection enabled, you will not even need to plug in your vehicle.

All you will need to do is get in and tell your car where to go. If you don’t say anything, the car will look at your calendar and take you there as the assumed destination or just home if nothing is on the calendar. Your Tesla will figure out the optimal route, navigate urban streets (even without lane markings), manage complex intersections with traffic lights, stop signs and roundabouts, and handle densely packed freeways with cars moving at high speed. When you arrive at your destination, simply step out at the entrance and your car will enter park seek mode, automatically search for a spot and park itself. A tap on your phone summons it back to you.

That description sounds wonderful.

Does it come with free hallucinogens?

And yes, in a moment of temporary insanity I did pay for FSD. Once.

I still say that Tesla will release full self driving cars well before commercial fusion power stations make up 1% of the US power supply.

That is an easy one as a fusion plant would take about a decade to build and begin operation. Probably 30 years to make a dent.
