Overview

• Tesla is training a new Full Self-Driving neural network with roughly ten times more parameters than its current version.
• The upgraded model features significant improvements in video compression loss to preserve finer visual detail during AI training.
• Elon Musk indicated that the system could be available to customers by late September if internal and on-road testing meet performance benchmarks.
• Full Self-Driving remains classified as a Level 2 driver-assist system requiring motorists to keep their hands on the wheel and be ready to take control at any time.
• Tesla’s Austin robotaxi service has continued to expand its geofenced operations under the U.S. Department of Transportation Office of Defects Investigation’s scrutiny following four FSD-related crash reports.
