New FSDb "tester" here. Got the update the night before Turkey Day.
So far my experiences with it on local roads (North Reading, MA) have been horrifying, but this isn't about the details.
I've heard for years about how well AP/FSD do in California, and I was under the impression it's because there are so many Teslas per capita in CA compared to elsewhere, so more feedback and maybe now more training data based on CA to improve the system.
Would I be correct in hypothesizing that FSDb does so poorly around my neighborhood because the neural net hasn't had enough opportunity yet to learn the area? I'm hoping that's the case, but someone in a local Tesla FB group said that it is not...rather, CA roads are just easier for FSDb to grok. Which is probably true in and of itself, the roads around here are much narrower and idiosyncratic (and rarely rectilinear). The question in my mind is, will FSDb now rapidly get lots of local data and improve quickly as a result?
I figure I can get an educated answer here. Thanks!
