Tesla's Full Self-Driving Software Advancements

Tesla's full self-driving software is set to include hand gesture recognition in upcoming updates. Elon Musk confirmed that this feature will be improved in versions 12.4 and 12.5 to adapt safely to new situations, like following a police officer's instructions or understanding cyclist signals. An instance with Boris Johnson testing FSD version 12 showcased approval, despite a situation where the car did not respond to a hotel staff member's gesture, to be corrected in later updates. The system's evolution emphasizes pattern recognition over sign reading, training AI with millions of examples to react based on past instances for ongoing FSD enhancement.
