As part of an update to its AI roadmap, Tesla has also announced the features that will be in FSD v13. Tesla provided many details about what we can expect, and there’s a lot of info to break down.

I feel like the Tesla master plans don’t hold as much value now that Elon has clearly shifted Tesla to an AI company.

Additionally, there are rumors about a more affordable Tesla model. This compact car is speculated to be positioned below the Model 3, with a target starting price of US$25,000. Although there have been conflicting reports about the status of this vehicle’s development, Tesla has not officially canceled the project.

The primary issue lies in the terminology used by Tesla. “Autopilot” and “Full Self-Driving” have been criticized for implying a higher level of autonomy than what is currently achievable. Tesla’s Autopilot is an advanced driver-assistance system that can steer, accelerate, and brake within its lane, but it still requires drivers to remain attentive and ready to take over at any time. The FSD package includes additional features such as the ability to recognize and respond to traffic signals, make lane changes, and navigate city streets, but it too requires active driver supervision.

Tesla says that in the affected vehicles the driver seatbelt warning light and audible chime may not activate as intended, potentially leaving the driver unaware that their seatbelt is not fastened.

Not exactly Tesla news, but Tesla-adjacent. Do people think this is a good place for Boring Company news, or should a separate community be created?

"Try very hard to fire or lay off the employee. If employees are not being rehired at least 10% of the time, it means that not enough employees are being fired."

Tesla is set to introduce restricted driver profiles in an upcoming update, aiming to improve safety for teenage drivers. Tesla hacker @greentheonly, also known as Green, recently decompiled the 2024.14.3 update, revealing the change.

12.4 rolling out no earlier than next week. (source tweet)

Glad to see possible signs of the start of a Semi production ramp.

Note that this is *Autopilot*, not FSD.

They're making progress, but I don't think humanoid robots are going to replace humans... yet.
