Wait, what is Tesla’s “e2e” model? And you “can see robotaxis”?

Tesla is counting on “humanoid “ robots. Which , uhh, yah, good luck undercutting minimum wage workers.

It's not clear what Tesla actually means when they say "E2E". The expectation most people have is that there's a single NN between sensor data and steering wheel/pedals out. Based on the limited technical detail available from "AI day" and such, what they're actually doing is more along the lines of a bunch of ML models glued together in a pipeline.

Now you might ask why people talk about Tesla E2E all the time if it's not clear exactly what it is. I don't know either. Let me know if you figure out a charitable rationale.

“FSD (Supervised) v12 upgrades the city-streets driving stack to a single end-to-end neural network trained on millions of video clips, replacing over 300K lines of explicit C++ code”

This was the changelog message lately.

I have one of these. It’s not there.

It probably drove away on its own.
