Momentus day! What Elon Musk said about this today:

"These are unmodified Tesla cars coming straight from the factory, meaning that every Tesla coming out of our factories is capable of unsupervised self-driving!"​

​

“It’s a new version of software, but will merge to main branch soon.​

​

We have a more advanced model in alpha stage that has ~4X the params, but still requires a lot of polishing.​

​

That’s probably ready for deploy in a few months.”​

We’re close! Could 2025 be the “next year” Elon has been referring to for so long?

Tesla range or Tesla charging is a win but, Tesla FSD assisted is remarkable. Even if there is issues with FSD taxi Tesla is a winner.
Europe FSD is a win win.
Asia even China FSD is a win win.
India, Africa, all of South America Tesla is a win win.
A Tesla now can drive you cross country and will be faster lower cost than flying.

Tesla is taking over all USA continental travel.

Lower cost, yes (but cars always have been).

Faster? Most certainly not.

Tesla CT FSD now faster than flying!​

Well
To fly you have to:
Drive your FSD CT to get to an airport.
Park your FSD CT
Then hold for airport security.
Then hold for aircraft loading.
Then hold for aircraft take off.
Then maybe in a holding pattern for aircraft landing.
Then hold for baggage pick up and release.
Then hold to rent a FSD CT to get to your destination.
Hours and hours of time wasted when you can at home jump in your FSD CT and work or play or watch a movie as you move to your destination.
Charging
Well, pack a picnic lunch and take a break from the movie you and your family were watching as you move to your destination.
Again

I vastly prefer driving places too, but it’s certainly not faster. Maybe traveling from Dallas to Houston could be faster if enough delays happen at the airport, but if you’re going anywhere further than that there’s no way driving is faster.

He is saying u gotta factor in driving to airport, parking, checking in 2-3 hours prior to flight, check yr bags, the actual flight, then clearing customs,waiting for luggage claim, ride to hotel, etc.

Not sure if it will be faster but if it can drive most the night while I sleep it wins. Thats game over. Thats the only reason I bought a tesla...FSSD blew my mind.

Elon says every car coming off the factory...which cars have the front bumper camera. He is suggesting that is not necessary which would be great news.
