    Will the state of CA bring legal action against Tesla?

    Posted: 04 Mar 2020 09:32 AM PST

    Tesla reported 12.2 miles to the state of CA from April 2019. No disengagements. These are the miles from this video released in April for Autonomy Day. I mapped the route and it matches the distance nearly exactly.

    So by Tesla's own position, they have to report miles when testing and showing their FSD. This doesn't fall into a weaselly "it's just driver assist" BS exception to the law.

    Why did Tesla not report ANY other miles? No testing of that software before the video. No testing of it after the video. Does anyone believe that they just flipped on FSD and it worked flawlessly for 12.2 miles and then they just flipped it back off? Pretty coincidental that they only report the miles in that video because they have to when it could otherwise be used as evidence against them.

    But we don't even have to get into the obvious unlikelihood that Tesla literally isn't testing their own software. What about the demo rides for investors from that same day? The rides showing the same capabilities from that PR video. Why are those miles not reported? What about the miles from Elon's car that he talks about running FSD beta on and how awesome and how just around the corner it is?

    Tesla only reporting those 12.2 miles is a laughable stretch of common sense in obvious defiance of the law. They are spitting in the face of CA legislators and the public. It's ridiculous. Tesla and Elon play fast and loose with a lot of their claims, but this to me is crossing a line. You can't just blatantly break the law.

    Re-imagining modern cities.

    Posted: 04 Mar 2020 02:23 PM PST

    I've been thinking about this for a long time, since autonomous cars/vehicles became a reality itself. I'm from Turkey, there are some cities that only few hundred thousand people lives. If I had power and money, I would turn those cities full Autonomy area. Let me expand it. I would make straight roads, maybe with certain angle, so it can regenerate energy. The city center itself would not have any driving roads. I'd rather have bikes, ebikes or sort roads. Other than that, those self-driving vehicles must connect certain places like hospitals, factories, train stations and villages. Since we're technologically pretty developed, we can create apps/software to determine which roads would be the busiest. Or if one must be at hospital at certain time, it can be arranged by software. You would have the car, bus on time. I forget to mention, there wouldn't allow to have personal cars.

    This is just a dream. Can you criticize it? If you would had the power, what kind of modern cities would you create in sense of transportation? Do you know any good articles about it?

    Can someone elaborate a little about this Elon Musk assertions?

    "And then a really fundamental thing is moving to video training. So in terms of labeling, labeling with video in all eight cameras simultaneously. This is a really, I mean in terms of labeling efficiency, arguably like a three order of magnitude improvement in labeling efficiency. For those who know about this, it's extremely fundamental, so that's really great progress on that"
