Talking about EVs, AIs and Tech.

Driving a 2024 Tesla Model 3 LR AWD with FSD v12.3.4 around the Greater Toronto Area.

@GordonJohnson19 @aelluswamy The system didn't fail. The driver failed by OVERRIDING it

[James @JElectrified]

@HARJGTHEONEDBA @jchybow @ElectrekCo @FredLambert So you think the system should ignore driver inputs and override them?

[James @JElectrified]

@Reuters And you just pretended a misleading article.

[James @JElectrified]

@AIDRIVR For me, I start my drive to work in a parking garage and end in a parking garage both ways.

My apartment has assigned parking and my work has reserved parking. I have to disable FSD at the end of both drives because it doesn't know where it can park.

That needs a way to be set

[James @JElectrified]

@brandenflasch I like it's commit messages it does more then some others and I use T3Code mostly for actual AI work which didn't support Grok until now and like having a different terminal for git actions.

[James @JElectrified]

@Reuters He's a reporter and did 0 research into this before going to Dallas to cover it....

[James @JElectrified]

@Teslarati I don't really care how far I live from my work anymore as long as I can charge enough.

I used to want to live closer to not deal with rush hour highway traffic. Now I moved further away to a nicer place and just have FSD handle the drive every day.

[James @JElectrified]

@brandenflasch I have no functional use or need for a truck, so the Tesla.

[James @JElectrified]

@DirtyTesLa For me the big thing is in my area they have lands that are for buses only for 3+ passengers between certain hours of the day and FSD never follows the signs for that.

[James @JElectrified]

One issue I have is roads in my area have lands that are only for buses between certain hours of the day or cars with 3+ people in them.

FSD EVERY time tries to use those lanes when it's just me during those hours. You only know the lane is that restriction based on a sign and a diamond shape in the lane.

[James @JElectrified]

@niccruzpatane Not surprising but unfortunate. I wish they'd just keep it at $100/month and go for mass adoption

[James @JElectrified]

@AboutTesla I got it today in this wave!

[James @JElectrified]

@elonmusk @iliketeslas Does that count for Model 3s without the bumper cam?

[James @JElectrified]

@hopperlife @NickGibbsIAG @wholemars If they did both plans then sure that makes sense.

[James @JElectrified]

@TSLAFanMtl I think for them to keep working on FSD they need the monthly revenue from it so as more people use FSD with it getting better they need the monthly income instead of one time lifetime payments for future development

[James @JElectrified]

I also dislike how hard it is sometimes to get it to even offer an alternative route.

I have basically 4 ways to get to my work and prefer one over the other 3 but it never defaults to it and I have to try changing destination about 4 times to get it to finally offer other routes

[James @JElectrified]

@Reachvt1 @Tesla You have it in Mad Max mode to make it go faster and it slowed down over 10 once you got to the flashing lights

[James @JElectrified]

@NickGibbsIAG @wholemars I don't think that makes much sense. The idea is subscriptions keep bringing in revenue for Tesla to keep improving and working on FSD.

Per mile doesn't cost Tesla more or less for usage so why charge that way. You are almost asking people NOT to use FSD for long drives then.

[James @JElectrified]

@niccruzpatane Hopefully they keep it at that. The priority should be getting as many Tesla's as possible on FSD
