That is fair. It's just odd that the day before I was able to use it on an obvious public road.

That is a good idea. This fall I should make a scarecrow and put it in tough spots for the car to see what it can and can't avoid.

@@doanduzz I was really hoping to have the update before this trip! I just got it 2 days ago, and am editing my first attempts with Actually Smart Summon. I'll be doing a local drive to see if any issues have been fixed. I won't be taking any really long drives for quite a while though.

Thank you for your kind message! 4.6 mi/kWh is equivalent to 155 mpg of gas. My old car (2013 Altima) would have gotten about 35 mpg for the trip. Though since I charged on solar power to fill up before the trip, and a little wind power on the trip, I did even better than 155 MPG-e.

"Slow" is the operative word here.

The problem is that earlier versions didn't have this major safety issue. This should be an immediate recall. This is a degradation of quality of FSD. Also, this was most frustrating because over four weeks the issue did not improve at all.

@@SteveHischar You're absolutely right. Now that I don't have this bad version of FSD, I am much calmer.

Wow, that's super dangerous, too! This is why having to press the accelerator needs to be counted as a disengagement.

Wow! I’ve never had that happen.

@@TCPUDPATM Seems to happen every single time a minimum speed sign is posted. FSD 12.3.6. Also, sometimes car appears unable to distinguish 5 from 6 on speed limit signs. So a 65 mph limit is interpreted as 55 mph.

I sure hope it gets so much better in the next couple years. Some of the main issues I've had seem relatively easy to fix.

@@ElectricBrian Chevy's Supercruise is much better on the highways

​@@ElectricBrian I remain unconvinced. What about all the almost inifinite varaiations of situations that can emerge. Machine learning can learn it all - given infinite time and infinite processing power -but thats not realistic. Consider a dog running out on the street. Most people would emergency brake or attempt to sharply steer around to avoid. Now consider a plastic bag blowing out in the wind. Most people can recognise in milliseconds and just run over - without overreacting on the brake. Now consider a dog with a plastic bag attched to its collar. Then consider a blowing bag with a dog's picture. You can invent thousands of possibilities just for this one scenario. It might be unlikley but it could happen once in your lifetime as a new event. And many more more unlikely events could as well. Most humans can make quick decision and react appropriately in most novel situations . Maybe FSD can - but not seolely via machine learning approach - it has to process genuine new unecountered scenarios. I believe only by accumulating as much intelligence and as much life expeience as an average human could it do that. And that may never happen.

@@bbbf09 I agree with your assessment - there exists a vast number of unanticipated "edge cases". Like, the whole world is edge cases. The moral problem of enslaving a sentient being is interesting, but is there any reliable way to assess sentience (like a legit Turing test)?

@@idroppedmypocket What, I thought Elon was listening!

@@blacknbluereign8567 Imagine your driver driving you 60 on a 50 mph road and suddenly slowing down to 15 mph, time and time again. If you don't get angry at your driver for consistently doing that, will your driver ever learn?

decades away

@@bbbf09 Agreed. FSD is a bumbling beta software with a lack of situational awareness. A human driver is in a whole different league.

This is what my order was from Tesmanian "2021-2024 Tesla Model 3 / Highland Floor Mats Interior Liners"

You are trusting your life with FSD. He should be critical.

Yeah, it got lucky, you never know if someone's going to be turning into the far lane.

If I get 12.4 this month, I will definitely do this drive again.

@@ElectricBrian Great! Looking forward to your next video.

I agree

I can certainly do a couple more shorter drives around CT before my free trial runs out.

That is one I recorded of many samples. This one the car slowed only briefly. Other times it stayed thinking it was 15 MPH for much longer. It's very dangerous. 💀

Here's another longer example kzbin.infoUgkxARtN1vNuX9r71P0PoPXkn2c3PLk-cCWg?si=wzFUsRaye8bBAm37

Yes, a 2023 Model 3 RWD with vision only.

There are two preloaded on the car (and I think a new one is coming with the end of the year update). You just go to the Toy Box to access them. There are a couple websites that allow you to download other light shows. You have to download one show onto a blank thumb drive, then put that into your Tesla's USB port in the glove box.

If it was like $2,000 sure (because it'll get better someday, maybe), but $12,000 is way too much.

I'm 6'5" and I fit great! I can extend my legs all the way in the driver's seat.

I like how opening the shells is a governor for how fast I can eat them, plus it adds so much exercise 😜

@@ElectricBrian probably burn off the calories you get from eating them trying to open them. So they are a guilt free snack lol

The Spring Balancer looks like a great idea. Thank you! I do have something else in mind that I will hopefully be doing this weekend, and getting a video out about it.

Way past the stop line creating more risk for an accident
