Elon Musk from the Tesla Autopilot Press Conference
Quoted via @DanielSparks
“We are deploying a fleet learning technology, improvements happen day-to-day, noticeable week-by-week, even without software update … Don’t expect a retrofit option for early Model S owners. It doesn’t make financial sense”, said Elon.
“Elon: Fully autonomous maybe in 3 yrs, ‘maybe earlier but I’m trying to recalibrate my time predictions’ .. regulatory approval to vary”
“When asked about future Teslas: AP will be standard on all cars, safety features standard, convenience features you will pay to enable.”
