"Tesla AI" Lays Out Coming Release Roadmap - CleanTechnica
Sign up for daily news updates from CleanTechnica on email. Or follow us on Google News! Tesla took to Twitter (er, X … ruining my alliteration) this week to share with followers what its roadmap is for the coming months. Almost all of this relates to Full Self Driving (FSD). ... [continued]

I…don’t think there’s anyone I’d trust less to create an AI for driving
Meh, I know it's cool to dunk on Elon, but it's not like he's personally programming the AI. Space X is incredibly successful despite his leadership and the same goes for Tesla. Whether people like to admit it or not, Tesla's automation is the best out right now. If that inspires rivals to step up their efforts, it's a win-win for everyone.
I agree with the angle you’re coming from and think you’re right to a degree, but I can hand on heart say Tesla’s automation is the worst I’ve experienced. Have driven the likes of Tesla, VW and Volvo with automated driving capabilities, Volvo came out on top, VW second and Tesla last. I lost track of the amount of times where the Tesla slammed its brakes on randomly when travelling on a motorway at 70mph with seemingly no trigger. The Volvo was the most rock solid where I could actually sit back and let the car do it without feeling like I needed to be ready at a millisecond’s reaction to take over.
Perhaps where Tesla falls down is claiming their software has “Full Self Driving”. It doesn’t, and none of them do- yet.

Is phantom braking still a big issue? I thought they fixed the vast majority of cases months ago.
Seemed to be- it was owned by my Mum so there’s no guarantee she’d updated firmware properly or whatever. Come think of it I do remember checking for firmware updates and there weren’t any at that moment in time, but something as severely dangerous as that tainted my view somewhat permanently of it. The only saving grace was the great acceleration: if I wasn’t quick enough slamming the accelerator down a few times I would have been smoosh by a following truck.
If the guy in charge is a mentally unstable fuckbrain, that’s sure as shit going to inform my opinion on the reliability of his company’s output.
Heh you're.not going to be popular saying the truth here but yeah the progess tesla have made in CV and navigation is genuinely impressive because they have an amazing team and well funded development projects
Smart people + good hardware + huge volumes of data = good science even if the money comes from the pocket of an idiot.
