Tesla FSD is ‘Person Like’? Elon Musk Says Current Version Would Reverse Car If It Senses Danger

The Tesla FSD's current beta version 10.10 demonstrates a safety feature that would do what a person would do when stuck in a situation it cannot solve. Instead of a complete takeover by the driver, Elon Musk said that the FSD is like a person and would try to get itself out of a situation like pulling away from a dangerous intersection.

Tesla FSD Backs Out from Parked Obstacle Without Human Takeover

A Tesla FSD Beta version tester named "Whole Mars Blog" demonstrates a Tesla EV that pulls away from a situation like how humans would do when stuck. The video showed how the FSD program handled it like a human taking over the wheels and escaping the case to continue the trip and head to its destination.

The beta tester said that the Full Self-Driving beta is currently at version 10.10, and it is different from previous versions that would require more assistance than this one. Before, drivers would need to get the car out of the situation and take over the drive before resuming autonomous driving, unlike what it demonstrated now.

Elon Musk: FSD Beta is 'Person Like,' Pulls Itself from Danger

Tesla CEO Elon Musk agreed that the Tesla FSD Beta can do these maneuvers and adds that it is "like a person" in these situations where it does the takeover or interference itself. Musk claimed that the FSD could reverse and pull the car away from an intersection when it senses danger around its vicinity.

The Tesla FSD Beta Version Now

For obvious reasons, the Tesla FSD Beta is still in the beta testing version. It is to test the capabilities of the electric vehicle before it faces its public release. However, a lot question the qualifications of the FSD, and it includes US Senators that doubt its safety features. It is only normal to doubt the safety of the car as it involves the lives of the public.

There were initial rumors that said Tesla's current version of the FSD allegedly is crashing every 36 minutes and that it is not a safe feature to be used by people. However, those statements get refuted by Tesla fans and people that tested the FSD, using it in their drives while filming its track, showing that the feature does not crash at all.

The current version of the Tesla FSD demonstrates a safe approach to different situations that involve human interference or takeover when driving. The condition means that the person would need to drive the car out of the ditch or problem it is in.

However, Musk said that the Tesla FSD is "person like" and would not need much of a takeover in the present version.
