Tesla FSD 13 Escapes Narrow Dead End + Camera vs Human Eye Discussion w/ James Douma

Your really do torture that thing huh!? It didn't want to!

I have noticed it cannot back out of a drive way with curves. With FSD 13.2 I have basically had no interventions once it gets going. Speed is still wonky and its not smart on freeways in hurry mode (it goes to left lane as freeways diverge or come together which is slowest location not fastest).

LIDAR sensors produce cancer

People don't understand how much more detail can be gleaned from a digital cmos capture as opposed to the human eye. And then 36 times a second or whatever the refresh rate is... It is already superhuman. It just needs to learn more. And it is...

I used to think that theres no way the model could be better than a human, because its trained on human driving. Recent videos have started challenging that assumption though...

A great new feature of reversing is great when backing out of parking spots. FSD sees behind my car much better than I can when I'm looking back and forth as I back up manually.

& Just for your comfort cause it could have just backed all the way out - who cares other than what feels/looks normal.

We all know there are at least 50 shades of grey.

What this has shown me is that Tesla should have included a front bumper camera on all models. It would just improve its confidence in going forward closer to objects and help in detecting things below the hood line. I don't see any downsides to adding a front bumper camera, with the exception of added cost. I hope they eventually do this and allow for retro fits to the models that don't have it.

I can see 50 Shades of Grey
too easy, but it had to be said

this IS the future. This is amazing. Thanks Elon!

saying the human eye can only see 30 shades of gray is bullshit

You two are unbeatable in this.

I would thought based on its 360 image, it can drive backward as good as forward. so it can just backing out that deadend.

… Thanks for the video with James. I wonder if we could get James to talk some more about this business with the dynamic range of the cameras – – I’d be interested to see some more detail on that, especially what he said about what happens when there’s a strong light from the front, light from the sun.

I hope AI5 comes with a front bumper camera. It would be as confident as when reversing close to obstacles.

The Tesla view is 360 degrees with full capability of interpreting the 360 view to whatever it is capable of comprehending. Humans have peripheral vision which is nearly 180 degrees, but only comprehend what is directly in front, not comprehending most of the 180 view present. Big win for 360 view cameras, and the computers unbiased comprehension of the entire 360 view.

One handicap of the human eye/ brain is the selective perception

Tesla should do a video showing us what the cameras actually see. I’m curious about the contrast data.

More drives with James please

WOW

Fsd V13 Loves 3 or more point turns.😂

Baby AGI Achieved.

I know you're probably spending days editing this perfectly but personally I would pay real money to watch the complete, uncut conversation with James. Unlike most Tesla commentators, his AI knowledge runs deep, so I soak up every word. 🤩

I wonder, how much FSD can already infer from the cars' and pedestians' movement. I am not so good with facial expressions, but quite with people's movements. Works with humans and also their cars. For example, I usually somehow see when people want to take a turn, long before they reach the intersection or use their turn signals. Might be that they move over sightly, or how they accelerate.

Yeah, it's funny how oversimplified the conversation on cameras vs eyes is for most people. It's not one being better than the other.
Another area the cameras excel in is fog. Fog that I can't see 5 feet in appears almost clear on the camera footage, which is a huge advantage in some places.

I don't think the model is taking more then 8bit of the video as input.

low audio

They’re yappin about how the camera could see a person in the car but didn’t the Tesla just slow because the hazards were on in the other car?

Thanks AIDRVR for this great video. Everyone should a James Douma in their car as a guest when testing FSD. Instant teaching moments as unique scenarios and events unfold during the drive. Thanks JD and James. :)

With v13.2 I've found myself hitting the juice to coax it along less often, although with the new unpark and start FSD from park features, it needs me to hit the juice pedal sometimes to get it going and feeling good about what's in front of it, especially on a sloped driveway.

😍

do more narrow streets with lots of pedestrian and motors passing by.

It would be nice if you could do a "10 best FSD manoeuvres" video, or something like that! It would be a cool video with your commentary to show to friends and family! Cheers
