Musk: Tesla Is Developing The Last Piece Of The Puzzle Of FSD AI

Musk recently predicted that Tesla will be fully self-driving by the end of this year. It is reported that fully autonomous driving does not require the driver to control the vehicle, and the vehicle system can complete all driving tasks.

For Tesla owners using the FSD Beta, it's hard to imagine Tesla making the leap from its current state to Level 4 or Level 5 autonomous driving in just a few months. In addition, Tesla's full self-driving is subject to regulatory approval.

Musk said on Twitter that Tesla is currently working on "the last piece of the puzzle on Tesla's FSD AI puzzle." He said this is "vehicle control." "Vehicle control is the last piece of the puzzle on Tesla's FSD AI puzzle. This would reduce more than 300,000 lines of C++ control code by about 2 orders of magnitude. ”

This statement seems to indicate that Tesla plans to rely more on neural networks to control vehicles rather than on direct coding instructions. Musk also added that Tesla is currently training these neural networks, and "training computing" is the limiting factor at the moment. "Our current progress is that training is computationally limited, not engineer-constrained."

Musk has been talking recently about how Tesla can get as much computing power as possible from NVIDIA while deploying the Dojo supercomputer project. Electrek believes Tesla's Dojo supercomputer program and the potential to accelerate system improvements have led to some optimism about FSD. Tesla has already begun deploying the Dojo supercomputer this month, which could accelerate the training of the numerous neural networks that power the FSD.
