Decoding Tesla’s New “Fully Autonomous” Car Video—and What It Isn’t Telling You

Elon Mask has dropped a 30 -minute video designed to electrify fans and to stir the controversy. Posted on June 28, the clip shows that musk claims are a historic tihasic milestone: the first Tesla Model Y to drive itself to the customer home from the factory, without any person inside and without remote operation.

“The first complete autonomous distribution of Tesla Model Wai from a customer home from the factory across the city with the highway ended the day before Shidiul !!” Kasturi posted on June 27 X (previously Twitter).

Model Y, following the world’s best -selling vehicles, following traffic signals, and navigating the parking lot, highway, intersection and city roads for pedestrians. Destination? A very happy owner’s house about 30 minutes away from Tesla Austin Gigafactory.

The musk was not behind: “There were no people in the car at all and no distant operator in the car. Full autonomous!” He continued: “As the best of our knowledge, this is the first completely autonomous drive that is not driving on a person or a public highway in a car.”

X’s fans were absolute. One wrote, “Thank you for changing the world and how we work”.

“It is nice to see it happening,” another said.

It’s a kind of video that you believe that the future has finally arrived. However, it is Elon Kasturi and Tesla We’re talking-a company that has a long history of extra committed and under-displacement on self-driving technology. To understand what’s going on, you need to understand the high-steak, multi-billion dollar race to create a true autonomous car.

Tech Wars: Camera vs. Laser

There are two fundamentally different philosophy at the center of self-driving race.

On the one hand you have Tesla. Its “Complete Self-Driving” (FSD) system depends almost exclusively on camera and AI. The argument called “Tesla Vision” is argued that if people can drive with just two eyes, a car should be able to do the same thing by providing a 360-degree view with eight cameras. The car computer “sees” the world and it decides on the many trained video data. This is an apparently impressive and low -cost approach, as it avoids expensive hardware.

On the other hand, you have companies like Wemo (Google’s main company, alphabet). The Wemor system also uses the camera and radar, but its main sensor is the leader (light detection and ranging). Leader units spin around, hiper-right around the vehicle, shooting several million laser beam per second to create a real-time 3D map. It gives the car a superhuman ability to “view” distance, size and objects with specific details of the day or night. This is more expensive but many in the industry consider the more visible and unnecessary systems.

These partners are huge: the company that crack the truth, level 5 autonomy – where a car can drive itself at any time, without any humanitarian intervention – will not only dominate the auto industry, but also revolutionize the logistics, transport and city life.

Reality Check: Hype Deconsteacting

With that background, let’s watch the Tesla video again. Model Y is impressively managing various real-world situations. However, the Historic Tihasik of the mask first claims, characteristically, exaggerated. Some days ago, on 22 June, Tesla Opened A very limited version of Robotaxi service in Austin. It did not only involve a small number of cars and hand-selling customers, but each vehicle had a human caretaker in the passenger seat and was limited to a “geographical” (geographically limited) area.

Furthermore, the musk claims that “there is no guy in the car … on a public highway lying on” first-fully autonomous drive “. Wemo already provides driverless rides in which the highway travel of his staff in San Francisco and Los Angeles is included in the public. And has spent years to legalize its protection, while Tesla seems to be rushing to make public ideas.

Our Accept: An epoch or carefully choreography stunt?

This Tesla video wins a PR. However, a healthy dose of suspicion is confirmed by giving a record record of musk track. This specific 30 -minute route was ideally tested in the ideal terms by Tesla to ensure defective performance for the video. The original test of autonomy is not whether a car can complete a perfect, pre-planned trip; It can safely operate for several million miles, whether thousands of unexpected trips can be managed.

The question of the most is to say: If the Tesla system is really “fully autonomous” in this video, why does its commercial robotaxis still need a human supervisor?

Kasturi is a bright salesman and this video is its latest, most attractive ad. It sells a vision of the future which is fluently close. However, we have repeatedly seen, with Tesla, promotional videos and everyday reality can be huge. As long as these cars are moving in countless cities without any human protection nets, this “historic tihasik” is a bright, but perhaps a bit more than fragile, marketing part.
