One of the simplest things for humans, but incredibly complex for machines, is anticipating the unpredictability of children.
Here FSD rolls up in direct sun, spots the kid way before I did, and applies the brakes. But what came after stunned me. Another bike, and another, then a gap, and another bike (and a bonus scooter). At no time did FSD attempt to jump the gap between the children (even when it could have). There was no jitter or indecision. FSD just patiently waited until they all came around the corner and crossed the street.
It stayed perfectly still so as not to scare the children. Just like a human would.
I’ve seen a lot of amazing things with FSD, but this one really impressed me on a deeper level.
As a father, I’m happy knowing more people are using Tesla FSD to keep their own kids safe and to ensure the safety of the kids on the road.
