My mechanic for my Miata does spec miata. He’s been mentioned on Jalopnik before. As cool as it would be it’s still damn expensive even if you’re a mechanic and building your own cages. But my street only miata has all his experience working on it, so there's that.

I just bought a Model Y with FSD and 100% agree that I am actively trying to be a beta tester. I buy early access games regularly. I enjoy being on the leading edge and know that I may need to babysit the technology and it may not work some times. I haven’t received the FSD beta yet, but even using autopilot or…

I’m an efficient backer-in as well. I can back in quickly, and I almost always park further away, so I’m not fighting with traffic to get in our out.

Maybe it’s because I follow AI research I’m more optimistic about the pace of progress. There is a lot of supervised learning progress happening now.

I am terribly sorry! I replied to this after reading your comment about an EV truck and missed the Miata EVcomment. So my mind was more on Canoo EV truck and not Miata. You are completely right!

He probably has his entire ERB in stickers plastered all over his back window too. 

Perhaps you can feel a bit better knowing that very few get selected to test the latest features, and those who aren’t good at monitoring actually get kicked off the beta program. There are exactly 2,000 drivers with Tesla FSD Beta (City Streets beta) out of the ~1,307,000 Teslas on the road, or 0.153%. That’s…

Even the ones who do nose-in, they still take like 3 attempts to back out of the spot because they don’t have a concept of how long their truck/suv is. Heck, I find myself acting as a spotter just so that they can get out faster (and so that they don’t hit my car).
Just another reason to have a more difficult driving…

In the case of Minecraft, it was $19 and then the price went up to $26 when it went out of beta, but that was probably more about a money grab when the game went viral than a planned thing. Really the incentive is to have early access, because otherwise you’d have the feeling of missing out on something big. Even…

Don’t give them any ideas! 

You and me both, but unfortunately we are the minority.

I think it’s just that Torch always seems to be using sketchy evidence to back his claims in addition to being openly derisive of any attempt to paint Tesla in a good light.

C2C is not the solution, you’re correct. What we need is a C2N (car to network) communication system.

Beta testing in the software world has long been a volunteer or customer-paid experience. I paid for Minecraft open beta (October 2011). I paid for Valheim open beta (February 2021). For free I was part of Guild Wars 2 closed beta (2011?).

I’m pretty certain it will be successful especially if this is what we currently have then honestly it’s not too far off. the main issue is just collecting more data for the neural net.

the problem is the way we humans do it is by making shit up, it’s why the uncanny valley is a thing, when your brain sees a nose, mouth, and eyes it says face instead of pile of rocks on mars. our brains have less processing power than a basic smart phone, they have the edge purely because the brain’s code was written…

I can definitely see that argument.
