I saw that and was shocked. I read that only 11% of Tesla owners have FSD. I guess raising the price the price will entice more buyers?? lol Makes the subscription plan an even better value but I'll bet the subscription will increase as well soon. I've always said that I'll be willing to pay up to $5k for the enhanced autopilot package they used to have. All I'm interested in is auto lane changes.
Im a buyer at $200 for the summer months for road trips but no chance I'll pay $299. I just change lanes all by myself thank you. The rest of FSD is just useless party tricks.
For trading in to Tesla, sure. For selling the car, FSD adds quite a bit to the value.
That’s a good way to get people to drop it. Lol.
Carmax and Carvana used car trade selling prices barely move when you add FSD to the car. Saw multiple people complaining about this. Selling a car with FSD straight to a buyer is where you will get the most value.
Good luck with that. When I bought FSD it was $7000 and I was on the fence about it. Less than one month after I took delivery, it jumped to $8000. Then later on it jumped to $10000 and now it is going to jump again to $12000.
For now yes. What about tomorrow or next year when Tesla says FSD doesn't transfer on sale or it needs an $8k transfer fee?
Not sure it does. Dealers and buyers generally don’t give you back what you paid for upgrades or extra items. Ie. 10k fsd…you’ll likely get 5k more for the car if you have it. People like a deal and generally upgrades are just bundled into one total negotiated price.
So you're suggesting that the most elite technical team that's been assembled in modern times in an attempt to solve one of the most formidable problems in artificial intelligence, one that actually proves just how amazing biological brains are, is like a scam artist sociopath corporation and another scam artist sociopath who used lies to build a phony corporation? Really? What is your evidence for those wild ideas?
I think the post only said it’s not viable for another decade. In Elon Musk time it would be ready last year lol. Now it’s level 5 maybe 4-5 yrs which means realistically 10-12. Even EM admitted the complexity for this AI is far beyond what he originally planned for.
Actually the post said a lot more than that. It said that FSD reminded the poster of theranos and Enron. Nice job at cleaning it up though. And just for your information, what constitutes ready is really a regulatory and not a scientific definition. It's already better than the average driver but of course that's not good enough. But if you keep moving the goalposts on what is good enough such that you insist that the system is able to avoid any and all accidents all of the time – something that humans can't do – it may never be ready.
I think it may take some frank discussion about how an artificial intelligence system is better than 95% of human drivers but still results in X number of fatalities that a top percentile of human drivers might avoid. The real question is what it will take in terms of neural network training and computational power to get to a point where the system is as good as the very best top 1% of humans. Of course even those folks have accidents, so it really becomes a question of whether you can separate and statistically define genuine excellence from some kind of unrealistic expectation of near perfection. It's hard to believe that any artificial system is going to be able to anticipate every contingency. Humans can't so it's hard to believe we can create that level of skill artificially in a so-called expert system.
Lol! That's a pretty funny statement
