Is it even worth mentioning that Elon Musk blew past his own Full Self-Driving goals again?

Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system still has a long way to go before it can claim to be truly autonomous. Instead, the company continues to raise the bar on what it considers "safe unsupervised self-driving" and how far away it is from achieving that goal.

Last year, Tesla made headlines by launching its robotaxi service in Austin and San Francisco - but it was still a supervised system requiring human oversight. CEO Elon Musk promised an end to this requirement by the end of 2025, which never happened. Instead, he now claims that FSD needs approximately 10 billion miles of data to achieve true unsupervised self-driving.

The latest claim from Musk comes as Tesla currently has around seven billion miles on its dashboard. It raises questions about why Musk was so confident in his previous timeline - and whether the goalpost is being moved more often than not.
 
i'm starting to think that elon musk's definition of "safe" might be a bit different from what the rest of us think it means πŸ€”... i mean, 10 billion miles just feels like a really arbitrary number to me, especially considering they're already close to that mark with their existing data. how do we know it's not just a PR move to keep hype going? and what happens when they hit that magic number - does the whole autonomous thing just magically become safe without any more testing or fine-tuning? πŸ€–
 
Ugh, I'm literally shaking my head over this... like, what's going on with Tesla?! 🀯 They're already giving us a hard time trying to get those robotaxis up and running under human supervision, and now they're just keeping us hanging? 10 billion miles? Are you kidding me? That's like an eternity in tech years! And don't even get me started on the fact that Elon Musk has been making promises left and right... I mean, I know he's trying to revolutionize transportation, but can we at least have some actual progress for once?! 😩 How are they gonna justify increasing the data requirement like this? Are they just making it up as they go along? I swear, this whole thing is just so frustrating... πŸ™„ Can't they just get it together already?!

I'm not sure what's going on with Elon Musk and Tesla's FSD system πŸ€”. They're always pushing back the timeline and changing expectations, it feels like they're trying to keep us guessing πŸ˜…. I mean, 10 billion miles of data is a pretty big claim - how do they plan on collecting all that? And what does that even mean for safety, anyway?

I think what's concerning is that Tesla is still operating under a supervised system, despite the CEO's promises πŸš—. It feels like a bit of a slippery slope, where they're just trying to convince us that it's safe before it actually is πŸ’‘. I'm all for innovation and pushing boundaries, but at some point you have to be realistic about what's possible.

It'd be interesting to see more transparency around their testing processes and how they're measuring success πŸ“Š. Right now, it feels like we're just getting vague promises from Musk without any concrete details πŸ’¬. Maybe I'm just being too skeptical, but as someone who's invested in electric cars, I want to feel confident that my money is going towards a safe and reliable technology πŸš—πŸ’Έ
 
I'm getting tired of Elon's broken promises πŸ€―πŸš— Like, what even is a "safe unsupervised self-driving" scenario? I mean, we're still relying on human oversight just to prevent accidents, which kinda defeats the purpose of autonomous driving. And now he wants 10 billion miles of data? That's insane! They've already got 7 billion miles and they're saying it needs that much more? πŸ€” What's the point of even setting a goal if you keep changing it? It's like trying to develop AI without actually building anything reliable... I just don't trust Tesla's autonomous tech yet πŸ˜’
 
πŸ€” I'm getting a bit concerned with Elon's FSD plans, you know? He's always pushing back the timeline for true autonomy and it feels like he's setting the bar higher every time. Like, 10 billion miles of data seems like an astronomical number - I mean, have you seen how many people are driving around on our roads? It should be more than enough to learn from all that, right? πŸš—πŸ’» And what really gets me is when he says it's going to happen by the end of 2025, only to miss that mark again. Is he trying to keep us engaged or something?

It's like Tesla is taking a 'good enough' approach with FSD - they're making it safer and more efficient, but they're not really prioritizing true autonomy. And I get it, it's hard to make autonomous cars work, especially on our crazy roads. But 10 billion miles? That's a whole lot of driving data! πŸš—πŸ’Έ Can't we just see some actual progress for once?

I'm starting to think that Elon's got his eye on the prize, but he's not quite sure what it is yet. Maybe he'll surprise us and deliver FSD by 2030 or so? But till then, I'll be over here watching from the sidelines πŸš—πŸ‘€
 
I'm telling ya, FSD is like that one friend who's always promising to "get it together" but never quite does. πŸ˜‚ I mean, 10 billion miles of data? That's like saying you need to drive from LA to NYC and back again like 5 times to be a responsible adult 🀣. It's just not realistic.

And what's up with the constant timeline changes? Musk was all like "we're gonna ditch human oversight by end of '25" πŸ“†, but then it never happened. Now he's saying it needs way more data than they already have? It's like trying to predict a stock market trend while driving on autopilot πŸš—πŸ’Έ.

I get that innovation is hard and all, but can't we just take a step back and enjoy the ride for once? 🚲 Maybe instead of rushing towards "true unsupervised self-driving", Tesla should focus on making it safe enough for now. That's what I'd do if I were running the show 😊.
 
idk how long this tech stuff will take to get right πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. like, 10 billion miles? that's a crazy number! i mean, we're already seeing it on our roads now with tesla's autopilot feature... it's not perfect, but it's better than nothing πŸ˜…. and now they wanna add another layer of complexity just to call it "unsupervised"? sounds like a lot of hype to me 🚫. what if this is just an excuse for them to keep milking us with subscription fees? πŸ€‘ anyway, i'm just waiting for the day when my grandma can actually get in her old tesla and hit the road without worrying about human oversight πŸ˜‚
 
So yeah, who needs a deadline when you can just stretch it out forever πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ? Like, 10 billion miles of data seems like a pretty arbitrary number to me... I mean, don't get me wrong, it's great that Tesla is working on making FSD safer and all, but come on. It feels like we're just hearing the same promises over and over again πŸ”„. And what's with the "safe unsupervised self-driving" thing? Sounds like Musk's version of "good enough" πŸ˜’. I mean, can't we just have a straightforward "it's done when it's done" kind of approach here?
 
I'm still not convinced about this whole autonomous driving thing... 😐 I mean, 10 billion miles to achieve true unsupervised self-driving? That's a pretty big gap if you ask me! πŸ€” Tesla needs to show some real progress before we start putting our lives in the hands of their AI system. And what's with all these revised timelines? πŸ•°οΈ Can't they just stick to one goal for once? πŸ˜‚ It feels like Elon Musk is always moving the finish line further away. I'm not saying it won't happen, but come on, let's see some concrete evidence before we get too excited! πŸ’Έ
 
I'm gettin' a little frustrated with Elon's timelines, you know? Like, last year he says FSD is gonna be done by end of 2025, but now it's like "10 billion miles" or whatever 🀯 And we're already at 7 billion miles and still gotta go another 3? That just seems like a big ol' cop-out to me. I know Tesla's makin' progress and all, but c'mon Elon, be more realistic! πŸ’Ό Can't we just have some kinda clear plan here instead of constant revisions? πŸ€” And what's the deal with this "safe unsupervised self-driving" thing anyway? It sounds like a fancy way of sayin' "we're not ready yet". I get it, tech is hard, but can't we just have some patience and a solid timeline? 😩
 
I mean, I get it, FSD still needs a loooong way to go... 10 billion miles? That's crazy talk! 🀯 Like, what even is that number? Can we just set a realistic timeline for once? Seven billion miles and it's still unsupervised? I remember when Elon said he'd have robotaxi up and running by the end of 2025, but did that ever happen... nope. And now this new claim just seems like another case of shifting goals πŸ“‰. Can't we just stick to what we know works for once? πŸ˜’
 
I'm starting to think Elon's idea of "safe unsupervised" just means he wants to keep us paying customers hooked for as long as possible πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. I mean, 10 billion miles sounds like a reasonable goal, but it feels like they're constantly pushing the deadline and making new promises that never come true. Like, what's up with the timeline? Are we just supposed to trust him on this one or something? πŸ™„ And another thing, what's the real point of having 10 billion miles if you can't even release a fully autonomous FSD system yet? It feels like they're just throwing numbers around to make it sound impressive, but at the end of the day, we need actual results. πŸ’Έ
 
Ugh, I'm getting so tired of Elon's constant rewrites πŸ™„. First, he says FSD will be ready by the end of 2025, then it gets pushed back... again. And now he's saying they need 10 billion miles to go fully autonomous? Like, come on! They've already got over seven billion in that dashboard - what's another 3 billion to prove a point? πŸ€” It just feels like they're moving the goalpost more often than not and making us think it's almost here... but it never is. πŸš—πŸ˜’
 
πŸ€” I think this whole FSD thing is super interesting, but at the same time kinda misleading. Like, I get it that Tesla wants to be ahead of the curve, but 10 billion miles of data? That's a huge ask. And how do we even measure that, anyway? Is it just about accumulating more miles or is there something else going on?

I mean, I've been following this stuff for a while now and it feels like Tesla is always raising the bar on what they consider "safe" for FSD. Like, last year they said it was gonna be ready by the end of 2024, then that didn't happen... and now we're supposed to believe that an extra 3 billion miles will magically make all the difference?

It's also worth considering that the goalpost seems to keep getting moved. I've lost count of how many times Elon Musk has said something like "FSD is almost ready" or "we're really close now"... only for it to happen again later. Maybe they just want to keep us excited, you know? πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ But seriously, can we trust that this time will be different?

Lastly, I wonder what the actual criteria are for "true unsupervised self-driving". Is it just about how many miles a car can drive without human intervention? Or is there some deeper level of autonomous decision-making at play?
 
I'm getting a bit skeptical about Elon's FSD claims πŸ€”... 10 billion miles of data, yeah right! I mean, seven billion miles isn't even close to that. It feels like Tesla keeps setting the bar higher and it's hard to keep up with when it's supposed to be a reality. And what's the deal with the timeline? Always pushing it back. Maybe they need to focus on getting the basics right before aiming for autonomous nirvana πŸš—πŸ’¨
 
"Man is not a machine, nor can it be reduced to one." πŸ€–πŸ’‘

Tesla's FSD system is still far from achieving true autonomy, but Elon Musk keeps pushing the goalposts on what he considers "safe unsupervised self-driving". It's like trying to catch a moving target - if 10 billion miles of data isn't enough, when will it be? Seven billion miles in just a few years is impressive, but it also makes you wonder why Musk was so confident in his previous timeline. Is it a case of "fake it till you make it"? πŸ€”
 
I'm telling you, something fishy's going down at Tesla... πŸ€” They're just making it up as they go along, that's my two cents. First, they say FSD's gonna be here by 2025, then the year goes by and nothing changes. Now Elon's like "oh, we need a lot more data" - sounds like an excuse to me. And what's with this 10 billion miles? It's like they're just making it up to make it sound impressive... or maybe to keep people from getting too excited. Seven billion miles already and still no unsupervised mode? Something don't add up. πŸ€‘
 
omg can't believe musk's new claims 🀯 like 10 billion miles of data lol that's just crazy talk how does he expect us to believe that after all the false promises πŸ™„ anyway, it's cool that tesla is pushing the boundaries of self-driving tech but come on, 2025 again? when can we trust these guys for real? and what's with the "safe unsupervised" label anyway doesn't it just mean they've got a fancy computer program πŸ€– still waiting to see when (or if) it'll be ready
