Obviously using the same software would be pointless, and honestly who would steal from Tesla when it comes to autonomy?

They can't even get the very simple, low speed parking right anymore. Which is funny because older "autopilot" software did manage, but not the Faux Self Driving one.

Sad to hear about this delay, but at least they have identified the issue and will work on adressing it.
I'm looking forward to seeing the end result.

Makes me chuckle when things like comma.ai are generally better and more stable than throwing millions at own solutions and starting from a scratch.
