Remarkable.....you are the only one that is letting Autopilot just cancel its route and reroute autmatically......which is astounding. Most testers give up, disengage prematurely, and don't let the car do what it can. You are HEADLINING its ability to reroute and that's what lets your car go to its endpoint without disengagements. Thank you so much for not disengaging.....as you say, you are really letting it show how unbelievably powerful this new version is. I hope the other testers will take your lead and let the car give up a difficult situation and automatically find another way and reroute.....so it still gets to your destination. Wow, you, and FSD are remarkable.

[@patrickprice2017]

I used to drive for Uber and I remember that if you would miss a turn it would reroute you sometimes adding15 minutes to the route. Missing exits it's a part of life.

[@1flash3571]

I don't think it will be released soon.....IT has too many improvements to go. I am betting too many idiots will try to not intervene by accident due to them not paying attention or deliberately doing stupid stuff.

[@injest1928]

I'm amazed how it figured out what to do when someone is standing in the road and went around them. It's getting so much better at dealing with less common events. I get the sense it'll be "this is nearly as good as a human" one day and "this is way better than a human" the next. It's going to shock a lot of people who aren't following development when all of a sudden it's a better driver than a human.

[@Niranga]

This is great. Shows exactly what system can do. It is nice to see how system correct itself when it makes a mistake. As long as it is not unsafe or obstructing traffic, I like how you let it handle on its own.

[@genephipps6421]

Objectively it is better to intervene and train the car "correctly" but I agree that from time to time it is also nice to just see how the system handles mistakes.

[@pc_screen5478]

@@genephipps6421 there's a report button on the screen you can press. If the car does something weird but you still deem it safe enough to continue driving, it's better to press the button rather than disengaging all together

@@pc_screen5478 There are plenty of others who push the report button. It is good to see what the path finder does. It does have beeping sounds, and warnings which I am sure those get looked at also.

[@genephipps6421]

@@pc_screen5478 there is a difference between intervening and disengaging. For instance, if the car is in FSD and is at a stop sign and is hesitating or slow to advance and the driver presses the accelerator the car will move forward and "learn" it should advance more quickly, without disengaging FSD. There is no need to press the button to report anything, and again, FSD is NOT disengaged. The real issue--and it is not really a big thing--is that these drivers are called "beta testers" when really they are training the neural network. Beta tester is a throwback term more suitable to traditional software development. Neural Net Trainers would be more accurate.

[@Tydud3]

7:25 A bad driver never misses their turn. A good driver will make the mistake of taking the turn, to prevent any accidents. To me, it should not have gone ahead, but it couldn't make the merge, so it took the turn. I would have done the same if I got blocked and wasn't allowed to merge into the proper lane.

[@soryuushi]

Yep. Came here for this too. This is what auto recovery/etc should do. Really impressive to see autopilot handling this honestly.

[@RantVoidTiggs]

That’s a good summary or bad and good drivers. I literally just saw a video on TikTok where some one in the straight-ahead lane cut across the people in the turn lane to make the missed turn… And got spotted by the cops and pulled over. But I’d take how the FSD here handled getting stuck in the wrong lane over that other video any day!

This is why I wait for your vids. Excellent and honest narrative. What's interesting about the more assertive creeping action is that is serves several purposes. It signals the FSD driver on intent, it signals other drivers on intent and it provides additional opportunity for the camera to detect obstacles. This seems to signal REAL progress and not the marginal incremental changes Musk tends to goes on about. Hopefully this rate of improvement continues and does not stall again.

One major plus i see is auto collision warning able to pick up a pedestrian mid turn when the pedestrian is basically way off to the right side. Some drivers cant even do that due to a pillars blocking visibly and them turning too fast without checking thoroughly.

[@jonathondancisak320]

It seems like testers in the Midwest and East are having a much rougher time with this version. I think it has more to do with mapping data than the AI.

[@brucejohnson4941]

To answer a couple of your questions: on the first corner @ 3:27, I suppose it was reasonably cautious; however, it was trying to execute a right turn on a red light when there is a sign strictly forbidding that. IMO that should be one of the signs that should be obeyed by FSD, even if it is customary for the locals to ignore the sign. The second question you had was regarding the view from the 360 deg camera when trying to leave the parallel parking spot and merge with traffic. I thought it was just like me shoulder checking for a gap, so I thought it was great. Please keep up the excellent content.

8:00 There are many pedestrians like that in big cities, stepping down the curb like zombies. Human drivers have an advantage by recognizing their facial expressions.

[@AudiTTQuattro2003]
