I wonder how many times this will occur again - saying that THIS hw will be neccessary to run full unsupervised FSD and then next generation comes and they be like "it is likely too weak, you need the new hw". Happened twice only in my ownership of my tesla, and mine is from 2021, and as i have read it has been promised since 2015 XD When they still promised HW3 would be able to solve unsupervised FSD. Now its already AI5 that should be the promised one, maybe AI4 for unsupervised but not safe enough (99 or 99.9%?). Guess we will need to wait till it can be proven that a specific hardware really is capable enough :D

It also brings the question if they ever bother with bringing FSD 12.6 to Europe once the regulatory approval is there or if they only will bring AI4 (or if it takes much longer for approval AI5) FSD Versions to Europe. Lets see if they are able to do it this year

What I theorize is that unsupervised FSD will never happen. There will always be a HW or regulatory constraint preventing it from reaching 100%. If they do happen to achieve 100%, what external event will cause it to drop back to less than? Some new law, a fringe scenario, or changes to highway/road signage, I'm not sure.

I have a 2022 M3 that I picked up in November 2021, so it is HW3. In many cases, I have to intervene only slightly. Maybe that will be as good as it ever gets.
