I don't doubt it, but I've also seen an old one corrected. All past FSD runs on Rural going North have gone 25 in a 45 until it saw the 45 sign halfway down the street. Now it starts at 45 from the street crossing where it should start.
I also noticed I can add some speed and it will stay there for a while, above the limit, and very slowly will bleed off speed, almost unnoticeably. I have yet to try this I-10 overpass on Ray Rd. eastbound where it used to slow to about 5 and no cars around. Silly spots.
Wasn't that on 12.3, not 12.3.1 that Elon said would fix it. DirtyTesla said 12.3.1 fixed all of his speed problems.

Canadians will have to wait since they have better overall health care-- long term and chronic care, and they have Lake Louise and Whistler, so they will have to wait it out since they can't have everything...

A quick round the block in car tutorial of FSD might have pushed me to buy the demo car and leave my 2016 MX behind...I have EAP and have upcoming Service. If they give me a car with FSD and a quick tutorial, it would be helpful. I’ve read many posts and watched videos about it, but have been waiting to see the preponderance of users be happy w it before I consider forking over the extra $ to upgrade. At some point I know we are going to need it as we are on the other side of the hill so to speak.. unless neuralink advances so quickly that they start marketing network enhancements to aging boomers
Is 12.3.1 already different/worse than 12.3 in this regard?
I have 12.3, and it (along with all previous versions I have used) would increase speed in these instances when I used the scroll wheel. My commute has that exact scenario-- speed limit is 55, but on some sections of the road, the map data must tell the car the limit is 25. I know where those spots are, and just hit the scroll wheel upward to maintain speed. No need for the pedal and no need to disengage...
HOWEVER, when I tried out the new "Automatic Set Speed Offset" option, that completely got rid of my ability to adjust the speed settings with the scroll wheel (at least as far as I could tell)...so I disabled that setting as soon as I saw how poorly that worked out in those 25 in a 55 areas.

Definitely agree on the "punches too hard off the line." I have all my settings on Chill, but the car likes to accelerate hard for my taste (I want to maximize tire life with gentle driving), and like you noted, keeps accelerating and/or maintaining speed a bit too long when there's a stop ahead...resulting in harder Regen and/or braking (again, making me think it's costing a bit of tire and brake life).
Maybe FSD needs an "ultra chill" or maybe even a "maximize my tire and brake life" setting that will decrease the acceleration and "think ahead" a bit to favor coasting over Regen, and favor Regen over mechanical braking. It should also know when Regen is limited on cold mornings and compensate accordingly. I'd imagine all of this should boost efficiency and real-world range too...

ASS in final review, projected to launch in the middle of April. Also Canada getting 12.3.2 guaranteed.

Some other useful information in that thread:
- Refresh Model 3 will be getting it's first FSD Beta software within the next week
- Tesla are trying to implement a method to be able to perform camera calibration within the factory without adding miles to the vehicle odometer
- Tesla is aiming to update the factory software build to a version that has a v12 FSD Beta build on it. Once done, newly built production vehicles will already have FSD Beta software installed, and ready to go as long as cameras are calibrated.

13.2k new Tesla registrations for week of 3/18 - 3/24 in China:
Or make the environment move around. Just put the car in a box with tv screens an simulate a driving environment as last step of the production process.
This part of the factory needs a soft/hard-ware upgrade to speedup/skipp the calibration process done by customers
IIRC, the onboard computer is powered up very early in the production process, so just moving around in the factory may yield enough data for the calibration process.
Seriously, how much would you pay for FSD?
I tried V12.3 and it is awesome and the future looks bright, but the price... $12000 (and rumored to become $15000 soon, is really too much.
I personally won't buy it, and neither subscript it for $199 for a couple months for my Model Y.
My bottom line will be $60/month, similar to Home Internet/Mobile Data Plan's monthly charge. Or $6000 lifetime, and must be transferrable to new owner if I sell the car.
That is required for real general public adoption. I don't think the target customer group of $25000 Model 2 are willing to pay $12000 or $199/month.
That brings concerns to me. Here we are all excited about FSD and hope it will give some vibe to stock price (e.g., $176.5 premarket price now). However, how much revenue will it actually bring to Tesla? I am afraid not as much as Elon is expecting.

Let's hope so.
End result:
2024: cars drive themselves from the end-of-inspection line to the parking lot with ASS
2026: cars drive themselves from the end-of-inspection line to customers across the US using wireless charging at parking lots. Tesla automated car registration, insurance,.. all the paper work done while the car is being build.
Your new freshly build car arrives at your doorstep autonomously (for those who are wealthy enough to buy the tech instead of renting)
