Genma_Jp(@nymbusjp):Very interesting. I was wondering what was holding them up and why Ashok said that v15 was necessary for this, considering the fact Robotaxi is already operating in pitch-dark night. The other interesting fact is that Tesla knows they have a risk of running over pets, despite the fact that we have no public reports of pets being run over. This is the power of having lots of data and compute: you can test, verify, and simulate the long tail to detect and fix issues before they happen.

Robotaxi operating hours moved from 10pm to 11pm. The main thing we’re trying to solve is making sure that we don’t run over pets when they’re hard to see at night. Literally trying to avoid grey kittens on grey tarmac in the dark.
