Okay it's next month....where is our smoooooth as silk

I'm in Atlanta so we are on EST.....but aren't we all...on E(lon)StandardTime. . Sooooooon....everyday we can say maybe tomorrow...

Its being transmitted from Mars as we speak.

Sorry the planets aren't in closer alignment.

And we are also supposed to get the, oft-delayed, Linux kernel upgrade which is supposed to bring a substantially better web browser.

 

[pilotSteve]

next month = n+1. only Elon knows what "n" is.

 

[Altes]

can i just have some basic phone apps (text reader, dictate)

 

[kort677]

that's a very long run for that carrier pigeon

In before the "he meant end of June comments"...

Elon said that AP2 updates would come every 2-6 weeks. The last update was May 6th, which puts the next update at June 17th or earlier.

AP2 updates so far have been 2 weeks, 5 weeks, 2.5 weeks, 5 weeks, 4 weeks and counting...

Elon means End of June.

I bet it will come the last week of June.

I am more interested in some advanced features like 'automatic overtaking' and 'transiting between freeways'

So if June is control update, that seems like July would be earliest for these advanced features.. but realistically it seems more like August/September

Hey Nice round up, is there a site somewhere that keeps track of these updates?

 

[gearchruncher]

I just took my track of updates in ev-fw tracker for my car. But there is a great google drive site that keeps track:

Tesla HW2 Firmware Tracker

If Tesla waits until the end of June to get the next update, then they have already fallen off the 2-6 week update cycle within 3 updates. If they drop an AP2 update without the steering update that Elon is marketing, then it will be July before we get it.

I'm more interested in my damn automatic wipers that were supposed to be here in December and that Elon "hopes" will be here this month...

FWIW for your tracker: 17.17.4 and 17.17.17 are basically identical for every one of those bullet points. The only "difference" is some allege that 17.17.17 is less abrupt when stopping for stationary cars but I've yet to see proof that this is more than placebo effect.

"If". Let's criticize them for falling off that schedule when they've actually fallen off that schedule. Not when we're only halfway into it.

The tracker isn't mine, it's run by someone else.

I didn't use 17.17.17 in my AP2 release timeline though, only 17.3.2, 17.5.28, 17.9.3, 17.11.10, and 17.17.4. Stuff between that is bug fixes for specific cars or such a limited release that it doesn't count.

6 more months! 6 more months!

Until what?

the coast to coast autonomous driving demonstration?

or are you just making a joke?

I would think 6 more years would be a better time frame to shoot for

6 years to shoot for what?

Nice!
link?

Also, what do you think is most likely time now for these features? August/ September like I said? earlier? later?

And we are also supposed to get the, oft-delayed, Linux kernel upgrade which is supposed to bring a substantially better web browser.

If we get the kernal upgrade AND the silky silky together, I imagine that'll be a huuuuge bolus of a download.

I remain cautiously optimistic.

The AP2 user in this post smoothly plowed through a bunch of cones, no jerky steering or braking - smooth as silk already. Elon didn't say where AP2 will take you, only that it will be smooth as silk.
