Why is Tesla FSD afraid of the dark?

It's worth pointing out and placing IR lighting in front of yourself could damage your vision.

Alternatively you could mount a 40w 6500k LED fixture in that same spot to replicate the experience oncoming drivers have when your FSD system keeps brights on all the time ;)

I never really realized it until I watched the Technology Connections video about headlights, but now I notice it all the time: improper use of high beams or improperly aimed headlights are horribly selfish and dangerous for others.

I’m loving some of the tech there is to shape the beam based on oncoming vehicles. But even just being in front of a car with headlights aiming right into your cabin is terrible.

Hah - fair point :).

Missing hardware doesn't inspire confidence.

You probably won't get Hardware 4 either:

Full self-driving hasn't happened. At this point Tesla should refund everyone's FSD money.

FSD actually isn't a big part of what Tesla sells. They have $1B set aside from sales revenues of the FSD option to pay for implementation.

That sounds like a big number, but it's less than the revenue of 2 days car production.

I thought FSD != Autopilot

"Driver assist" not FSD

Lol that's pretty... silly of Tesla :)
