TESLA FSD (SUPERVISED) V12.3.6 & AUTOPILOT V12 CONTINUE TO EVOLVE; BUT BOTH STILL HAVE A WAYS TO GO

EV Channels Review

This video offers a comprehensive, albeit lengthy, review of Tesla's FSD (Supervised) v12.3.6 and Autopilot on a 2023 Model X Plaid. The reviewer and his companions, including his mother, provide real-world feedback during a road trip. Key takeaways include the persistent confusion around the 'Full Self-Driving' nomenclature, with the mother emphasizing the need for constant driver vigilance. While FSD v12.3.3 and v12.3.6 show improvements, particularly in city driving, the highway stack is noted as still evolving and occasionally exhibiting erratic behavior, such as aggressive braking or hesitant maneuvers in construction zones. The reviewer highlights the neural network's learning process, which began only a month prior, suggesting future potential but current immaturity. Criticisms also extend to the lack of physical stalks for turn signals and the automatic windshield wipers' unreliability. Despite some concerning incidents, the overall sentiment is that FSD is progressing but not yet ready for full reliance, underscoring the necessity for driver intervention.
