"Unfortunately, HW3 simply does not have the capability to achieve unsupervised FSD. We did think at one point it would have that, said Musk during Tesla's Q1 earnings call on Wednesday evening."
"For customers that have bought FSD, what we're offering is essentially a discounted trade-in for cars that have AI4 hardware. And we'll also be offering the ability to upgrade the car to replace the computer, and you also need to replace the cameras, unfortunately, to go to Hardware 4."
"Musk then later admitted that Tesla would likely have to upgrade cars, but the process to do so would be painful and difficult during the company's fourth quarter earnings call in 2024."
Tesla will establish micro factories to retrofit vehicles sold between 2019 and 2023 with new Full Self-Driving hardware. The current Hardware 3 platform lacks the capability for unsupervised FSD. Owners who purchased the FSD package will have options for discounted trade-ins or upgrades, which include replacing the Autopilot computer and cameras. Musk acknowledged the challenges of this retrofit process, which was previously deemed infeasible. He expressed relief that fewer customers opted for the FSD package, indicating the complexity of the upgrade.
