- 0:00Hi everybody and welcome back to another episode of the Elon Musk
- 0:03podcast into this episode. We delve deep into the
- 0:06fascinating journey of Tesla's, full self-driving system,
- 0:10tracking its Evolution from its private beta stage to the major
- 0:14recent announcement made by Elon Musk.
- 0:17The world of autonomous driving has been buzzing with
- 0:19speculation and anticipation or since musk's tantalizing hint
- 0:24about the next, full self-driving version, no longer
- 0:28being in beta. From the Milestone marked by FSD
- 0:32beta 11s wide availability to the significant changes in FSD
- 0:37beta 11.4 and musk's confidence inspiring.
- 0:41Yet cryptic tweets will examine the major strides taken by Tesla
- 0:45on its path towards full autonomy.
- 0:47Amid challenges and scrutiny. Musk's bold vision for a world
- 0:51of fully autonomous vehicles continues to Edge closer to
- 0:54reality and we'll get into this Tesla news right after a word
- 0:58from our sponsors. On the cusp of technological
- 1:01Revolution. Tesla's once again creating
- 1:04waves with its fullest self driving system currently in beta
- 1:08and this system which is an advanced feature available for
- 1:10purchase at fifteen thousand dollars has been steadily
- 1:14Gathering user feedback and undergoing testing since its
- 1:18Inception in a recent development, Elon Musk for feel
- 1:21that the next iteration of full. Self-driving will no longer be
- 1:25in beta sparking excitement and anticipation among Tesla fans in
- 1:29the white. Wider Tech world.
- 1:31Now as we wait to unravel the nuances of this major update, we
- 1:34take a deeper dive into the journey and current capabilities
- 1:37of the full self-driving system. A pioneering in the automotive
- 1:41industry. Tesla has persistently aimed at
- 1:43integrating Innovative technology into its Vehicles.
- 1:46The standard Tesla vehicle comes equipped with a driver
- 1:48assistance system known as autopilot.
- 1:51However, for those looking to experience in enhance layer of
- 1:53automation, Tesla offers the full self-driving system as an
- 1:57add-on feature. Now currently in, its 11th
- 2:00version. Full self-driving is in beta
- 2:02mode, a stage of advanced development that allows
- 2:05potential corrections to be made based on feedback from testers
- 2:09this. Iterative software process has
- 2:11allowed Tesla to find to and full self driving.
- 2:14While maintaining a high level of enthusiasm around its cars.
- 2:18Initially full self-driving, wasn't private beta available
- 2:21only to select Tesla owners but has since been expanded for
- 2:25broader user testing and the Merit of the full self-driving
- 2:28system is apparent in the rain. Of features it provides some of
- 2:31which build on the abilities of the standard autopilot system.
- 2:34Navigating interchanges automatically, engaging the turn
- 2:37signal, taking the correct exit and changing lanes are functions
- 2:41handled deftly in my auto pilot, however, full self-driving.
- 2:44Further enhances these capabilities by adding an
- 2:47additional feature known as traffic and stop sign control
- 2:51with this. The system can identify stop
- 2:53signs and traffic lights along the vehicle to slow down
- 2:56automatically a pot approach, all under the active
- 2:59supervision. Of the driver, of course.
- 3:01Now full self-driving has been steadily, evolving with each
- 3:04update in the 11th version updated.
- 3:06As eleven point three point four eleven point three point five
- 3:09and eleven point three point six and most recently 11.4 it
- 3:13capabilities of the system have been expanding significantly in
- 3:17this version of the full self-driving.
- 3:18Beta software, Tesla cars can navigate city streets and
- 3:21highways much more. Adeptly yet, test the continues
- 3:24to assert that a vehicle equipped.
- 3:26With this version of full self, driving is not entirely
- 3:28autonomous. Driver supervision remains
- 3:31crucial now echoing the sentiment musk touted eleven
- 3:35point. Four point 1 s major
- 3:37architectural improvements stating.
- 3:38It's actually much more than a point release.
- 3:41Should arguably be 12.0 but that's reserved for one full
- 3:45self-driving is fully AI from video in to control out this
- 3:49implies a full self-driving. Is inching closer to becoming a
- 3:52complete AI driven system with further advancements.
- 3:56Promising to revolutionize the autonomous driving landscape.
- 4:00Now, despite the ongoing investigations by us Regulators
- 4:04into the full self-driving software following numerous
- 4:06incidents. Some fatal must continues to
- 4:09push the envelope. The news that the next version
- 4:11of full self-driving will no longer be in beta has reignited
- 4:14excitement among Tesla enthusiasts although must
- 4:18refrain from specifying. If this progression signals the
- 4:21commencement of the software as production phase announcement
- 4:24applies, at the next iteration of full, self-driving will be a
- 4:27substantial software overhaul. Now, musk Revelation comes hot
- 4:32on the heels, transitions to full self-driving, beta 11.
- 4:36And we've seen full self-driving beta grow and evolve from its
- 4:38humble beginnings, it was only available to a small group of
- 4:42Tesla insiders and beta. Testers, it was very much a
- 4:45private beta meant for people, who knew what to expect in were
- 4:49prepared to handle it. But over the past few months,
- 4:52Tesla has been slowly expanding access to full self-driving beta
- 4:56what started as a small group of testers as grown into a much
- 4:58larger group of owners. Is in the Progressive from
- 5:01private beta to a more public testing.
- 5:03Phase is both been intriguing and challenging and however the
- 5:07full self-driving beta 11, there was a significant expansion and
- 5:11its availability. This was the full self-driving
- 5:14beta. For the first time wasn't listed
- 5:17and limited to Tesla insiders. It was a significant moment in
- 5:20the development of FSD and it marked a change in strategy for
- 5:25Tesla. The aim was to get the software
- 5:27into the hands of more drivers together more Data and
- 5:30ultimately to improve the system while FSD beta 11 was a huge
- 5:34step. It wasn't the end though.
- 5:36Tesla kept working on, improving the system, releasing new
- 5:40updates regularly. And each new version brought
- 5:43improvements some minor are. There's more noticeable.
- 5:46We saw updates, eleven point, three point four point five
- 5:49point six. Each one, making the software
- 5:51more refined more capable and then came 11.4 which was a
- 5:56significant update that was initially only released to But
- 6:00employees. FSD better 11.4 marked a new
- 6:03Milestone and Tesla's pursuit of full self driving capabilities.
- 6:07This was a robust version. Having undergone significant
- 6:10testing and fine-tuning and Tesla's own.
- 6:13Employees were the first to receive the update in April a
- 6:15testament to the importance at Tesla placed on this update.
- 6:19Now, this update made the cars navigate city streets and
- 6:23highways even better than before.
- 6:25However Tesla was quick to clarify that this didn't mean
- 6:28the cars were fully. Animus yet the company was clear
- 6:31that drivers needed to continue actively supervising their
- 6:35vehicles. Elon Musk had much to say about
- 6:37the 11.4 update on May 10th. He stated it has major
- 6:42architectural improvements is actually much more than a pint
- 6:45release and it should be version 12.04.
- 6:50So the statement underscored the Quantum Leap that the 11.4
- 6:53version represented but also pointed to the exciting future
- 6:56where a version 12.04 Could be the culmination of Tesla's
- 7:01efforts to achieve whole AI Control from video input to
- 7:05control outputs. Yet, the road to full autonomy
- 7:08is not without its hurdles Tesla's.
- 7:10FST beta has been under the scanner of us Regulators for its
- 7:14role in various incidents. Some of which had tragic
- 7:17outcomes in the regulatory hurdles have been a cause for
- 7:20concern, but musk has remained steadfast in his resolve.
- 7:23His faith and Tesla's full self driving capabilities of not.
- 7:27Wavered is belief in the progress made thus far as
- 7:30evident in his recent Twitter announcements.
- 7:32Now musk made significant announcements via Twitter of
- 7:36course and declared that the next version of full
- 7:39self-driving will no longer be in Banda.
- 7:41This announcement was a surprise to a lot of people and it seemed
- 7:46to indicate a significant advancement in this next
- 7:48version. Yet musk didn't say anything
- 7:52about this next version? He didn't go into further
- 7:55details, he left it to speculation.
- 7:57Whether this meant Tesla was about to enter the Visit the
- 8:00software, this lack of clarity, only served to fuel anticipation
- 8:04and excitement around Tesla, and the stock of the company.
- 8:09Now, with this tweet must gave test the fans, a much-needed,
- 8:11spark teasing. The idea that the next version
- 8:14of false self driving will be a full release.
- 8:18What precisely is the time frame for the next iteration of full?
- 8:21Self-driving is the launch imminent.
- 8:25Unfortunately, the message in the nature of this message,
- 8:29didn't? We answer those questions but
- 8:31launched this year or in 2024 we don't really know unfortunately
- 8:35receiving no response from Elan. So musk statement has come just
- 8:40a few weeks after hinted at Tesla cars attaining full
- 8:43autonomy as early as this year. He said, tisza will have a kind
- 8:48of chat GPT moment, maybe if not this year, I'd say no later than
- 8:53next year. That's what Elon told.
- 8:55CNBC, and may referencing open a eyes advancement in Technology
- 9:00and learning language processing AI, which symbolizes the
- 9:05tremendous strides made in the field of artificial
- 9:07intelligence, three million cars will drive themselves with no
- 9:11one and then five million cars and then 10 million cars.
- 9:15That's what he predicted combination of bunch of his
- 9:18tweets and it amplifies. The already high expectations
- 9:22around Tesla's, autonomous driving capabilities.
- 9:25And now, the unfolding story of Tesla's full self-driving system
- 9:29despite Bite the hurdles and uncertainties continues to
- 9:32Captivate Us all. Propelling us even closer to a
- 9:35future where our cars can navigate the world's roads with
- 9:38the minimal human intervention. It's a future where our
- 9:41vehicles, don't just transport us the interact with us.
- 9:45They learn from us. And perhaps more importantly,
- 9:47they learn from each other in, musk's Tesla is at the Forefront
- 9:52of this technological Revolution and a remains a space to watch
- 9:56as we hurtle towards the arrow of truly autonomous vehicles.
- 9:59Oh, and is this story continues to unfold?
- 10:02I will bring you all of the information as soon as it hits.
- 10:06So thank you so much for listening to this.
