Fortescue's got a self-driving 240-ton hauler in the works
By Abhimanyu Ghoshal
August 27, 2024

An autonomous iron ore hauling truck developed by Fortescue and Liebherr
Isn't it pretty? Too bad you won't – and don't need – to drive it

We're a tad late to the news on this one, but we're no less excited to bring it to you heavy machinery nerds. Australia's Fortescue is teaming up with Liebherr Mining to develop an autonomous mining truck that will, in addition to driving itself, be the first of its kind worldwide to operate with zero emissions.

They're calling it a fully integrated Autonomous Haulage Solution (AHS). It's based on Liebherr's proven T 264 truck, which has been moving payloads of 265 tons at a time for over a decade now.

Announced in late July, the project involves combining an onboard autonomy kit for the truck, a High Precision Machine Guidance system for loading equipment, and a fleet management system so it plays nice with other vehicles.

September 5, 2024 by Brian Wang
https://www.nextbigfuture.com/2024/09/t ... -team.html
Tesla AI team released the FSD roadmap. Each FSD sale is the profit of a car. some of my FSD catalysts from a few months ago were late. 12.5 happened late in July. One month late on this roadmap is ok. But the team is driving and testing FSD V13 for over a month. They have pushed out 5 major versions over 8 months and weekly point releases. Achieving this should see licensing deals in October-December.

Due to popular demand, Tesla AI team release roadmap:

September 2024
•⁠ ⁠v12.5.2 with ~3x improved miles between necessary interventions
•⁠ ⁠v12.5.2 on AI3 computer (unified models for AI3 and AI4)
•⁠ ⁠Actually Smart Summon
•⁠ ⁠Cybertruck Autopark 📐
•⁠ ⁠Eye-tracking with sunglasses 🕶️
•⁠ ⁠End-to-End network on highway 🛣️
•⁠ ⁠Cybertruck FSD 📐

October 2024
•⁠ ⁠Unpark, Park and Reverse in FSD
•⁠ ⁠v13 with ~6x improved miles between necessary interventions

Q1 2025
•⁠ ⁠FSD in Europe (pending regulatory approval) 🌍
•⁠ ⁠FSD in China (pending regulatory approval) 🇨🇳[media][/media]

Top Self Driving System Analyst Amazed by Tesla 12.5.2.1 Starting to Go Beyond Human Driving

September 22, 2024 by Brian Wang

https://www.nextbigfuture.com/2024/09/t ... iving.html
After months with FSD 12, I’ve gone past the “wow, this is magic” phase. The analyst in me scrutinizes every disengagement and edge case. But today, I just had one of those “tears in my eyes” moments.

On a mini road trip, FSD 12.5.2.1 flawlessly handled the winding roads that have always been my worst nightmare. Literally no human I know could’ve done better. Perfectly centered, smooth turns, ideal speed. For two hours, the driver was completely relaxed, finished breakfast, and even the most carsick passenger played on their phone—zero disengagements, perfectly smooth. It passed the “coffee cup test”.

Achieving AGI in self-driving is one of the toughest challenges out there, but with 3 trillion miles driven annually and 12 hours per week behind the wheel, it’s poised to be one of humanity’s greatest unlocks. We’re talking trillion-dollar disruptions that no one’s fully grasping yet—reshaping cities, real estate, traffic, and car ownership!

Every step forward gets us closer to that future we all deserve.

Chuck Cook Drives Tesla Cybertruck With FSD 12.5.5
September 30, 2024 by Brian Wang
Tesla Cybertrucks now have FSD. Full Self Driving 12.5.5 provides Cybertrucks and other Tesla cars with new and improved FSD. This is also the first version that merges highway and city street driving. Previously, highway driving was handled by autopilot. Autopilot highway had less than one accident every 7 million miles. FSD 12.5.5 is superior to Autopilot highway on safety or Tesla would not be using FSD instead of autopilot.
