New AP feature jumps Tesla miles ahead

[rush6410]

I just wanted to poke a little fun at the folks who have claimed that Tesla will never achieve FSD in any lifetime because...xyz. One of those most stated features that clearly show Tesla was not ready is they couldn't read a speed limit sign.

Now that they have added the feature of reading a simple speed limit sign, they should just call it complete. They are finished. No need to keep working. Bring out the champagne. A celebration event is now necessary.

I was always a bit put off by the comparison that if they couldn't read a sign, then FSD would never happen. To me it wasn't a matter of could they do it, it was just a matter of when they had time for such a low priority already present GPS identification non priority.

I don’t think this was ever a technical problem, but a legal one. Remember that Mobileye holds a patent on the concept; whether Tesla has a way around the patent or licensed it, I don’t know!

So they can now do the same thing that AP1 has been doing for the last 5 years?

Cool. That’s a huge feature “jump”?
