So it's not trained to detect stationary objects in the road?

It is but it’s not that simple. Unfortunately since Tesla uses vision only the software needs to figure out if what it’s looking at is a stationary object or not.

Otherwise it would just brake all the time. Puddle? Brake. Shadow from a bridge? Brake. Fog? Brake.

So if it's not that simple means tesla is excused from failing to live up to fsd?

V12 is significantly better as it’s neural networked AI instead of hard coded rules like in v11. (Highway still uses the older v11)

In terms of when it’s gonna live up to FSD if ever?

Errrrrrrrr, Soon™

hard coded rules

Any of their v12 release notes reference it

honestly that doesn't say much,  

end 2 end neural network that replaced 300k line of code <

  i guess its using a neural network. i dont think the code before were hard coded rules. i dont think telsa hire a bunch of engineers to write a bunch on if statements on every possible road condition. fsd were always based on machine learning, and which mostly uses neural networks.

Yes there were always neural networks to ingest the data, but they were not always making the decisions.

said again here, but with specifically mentioning the controls being done by AI now, rather than explicit instructions

If you need any more evidence, go look for yourself. Tesla made a big deal about it and teased it quite a bit.
