But the assumption there seems to be that latest FSD software is somehow better for highway driving - even though it has been developed for city.
I would guess the most noticeable changes will be from replacing the various incremental features with better 360º understanding that was necessary for FSD stack. For example, lane changes primarily looks at a single repeater camera, merging for onramps probably focuses on the pillar camera, and selecting lanes relies heavily on correct map data. It'll be interesting to see if various warnings for "Navigate on Autopilot limited" due to construction, sharp road curvature, poor weather, etc. are reduced/eliminated.
Because FSD NoA behavior seems to be unchanged other than visualization, my guess is normal production Autopilot has a configuration to limit visualization to adjacent moving vehicles, and that is turned off for FSD Beta. Clearly production sees them especially parked vehicles. Maybe it's done that way because the visualization on production stack is too jittery causing people to mistrust the system.
True - with 4d NN, NOA will be better. But its anot a "freebee" - Tesla would have to do considerable amount of work to get that working properly. That takes away people from city beta FSD. I prefer they bring city FSD beta to GA before attempting the merge. Well, atleast to "expanded beta" with button & actually letting thousands more in on FSD Beta before attempting the merge. At this point single stack is a distraction.
I would be disqualified by just backing out of my driveway based on the number of sensors that freak out for no reason.
I’m beginning to think they would ignore low speed warnings because they want to get good signals for insurance calculation. Otherwise their calculations of risk for insurance would be junk ...
