People in this thread don't understand what machine learning is, and they think Tesla's FSD is chat gpt.
I'm an early Tesla enthusiast and I've purchased FSD when it was cheap, I still don't have what I purchased, they no longer claim the things they used to claim it will do on the website, Elon is a Nazi con man who took a great product and hired brilliant engineers to build amazing tech only to taint it by manipulating an election to install a dictator and Seig Heiled in celebration.
But Elon is just the rich asshole that runs the company, the brilliant engineers made amazing software that is still amazing despite not fulfilling Elon's fraudulent sales pitches.
This is not an endorsement of Tesla, I hope it crashes and burns as long as he benefits from it, I wish we can nationalize it and all its very valuable assets. But my "supervised" FSD handles all my driving and I haven't had a single disengagement in many months. It takes me from my driveway to any address with ease, and my passengers don't even realize I'm not driving.
Sticking your head in the sand and pretending it's not a real product because the CEO turned out to be a Nazi isn't intellectually honest or useful. Normalize the idea of nationalizing Tesla, it was heavily funded by our tax dollars after all.
FSD is improving at an incredible pace, and it would be very beneficial to society to nationalize and open source it, otherwise Elon the Nazi capitalist gets to benefit from it alone. China has incredible capacity to collect the training data in a short time that Tesla spent a decade collecting, and I have no doubt they'll have an FSD comparable product soon, I do doubt they'll open source it.
inb4 someone calls me a Republican or a Russian because I said FSD is real. Find someone who has it and ask them for a demo, and judge for yourself.
