Of course it's
Yes, and I still like to look out the window of the jet plane as it throttles up and takes off, but I have to remind myself to do it. And hardly anyone else cares.
Agree. Let me clarify - I share your enthusiasm, very much so. I'm awaiting an MY with a $10k FSD add-on. It's not only exciting to watch it work, it's increasingly important to me as I age, that it works well.
I agree with this. Personally I wish Tesla would pivot away from FSD as now described and optimize their self-driving efforts to making the best ADAS they can while keeping the driver the focus (and in the loop at all times). It is becoming more and more clear that the 'FSD' many of you have been sold probably never will exist, at least for any of the current or near future generations of Tesla cars. It really feels like we are in an annoying period where they are getting kinda desperate and are willing to compromise all of our driving experiences (forced high beams even just for cruise control???) to desperately try and get FSD to work. I hope they call it soon, so we can get back progress.
Agreed, that's how I'm starting to see it too. It's not a bad thing to say that Level 3+ is just not a realistic goal at this point. Concentrate on making the drivers assistance systems into good quality tools, release them all from beta at a solid Level 2 status. There are so many areas they can better use their engineers than pursuing autonomous driving. They're just getting spread so thin otherwise, and other manufacturers are starting to give real competition to Tesla.
Assuming you're referring to this:
so Tesla can push depth / velocity to a 5 - regardless of technical limitations of cameras? interesting.Assuming you're referring to this:
I put in the "???" to try to indicate this is a poor way to show the data. To be explicit, the circular version of the visualization is also bad, and the ordering and "connecting" of the attributes doesn't make sense either, which I was hoping to be more obvious in this linear version where having arbitrary values on the X axis that don't progress (e.g., 1, 2, 3) is bad chart design.
But as others have pointed out, ignoring the visualization and looking at the data it contains, it is useful as a reference. What Tesla is trying to do with "camera" -> "Tesla Vision" is to push everything to the max value, so notably depth and velocity information should approach "5" in the chart ideally for all cameras around the vehicle with radar-less Model 3/Ys and FSD v9. And similarly the weather and day/night "disadvantages" are likely to be improved with later iterations of Tesla Vision but not as high of a priority yet and can rely on some crutches like requiring auto-wipers and auto-high-beam for now.
Just got offered this version on a MX, which as far as I know is not TeslaVision.
