Tesla is dramatically ramping up data collection in Los Angeles and San Francisco, fueling anticipation for the impending reveal of its cutting-edge Robotaxi platform, now slated for October 10.
Tesla Ramps Up Data Collection in LA and SF
Over the weekend, an observer brought attention to the fact that Tesla appears to be stepping up data collection in specific regions of California, especially close to the studio where it will be revealing its next Robotaxi, as detailed by Teslarati.
X user and frequent Tesla sleuth greentheonly noticed on Sunday that the business has been collecting more data near the Warner Brothers studio in Burbank, California. This is supposedly the location of the Robotaxi platform announcement event.
Tesla Collects Data Across Bay Area Locations
In addition to the Hollywood Diner and Supercharger building site, Green has also noted an uptick in data collecting in the San Francisco and greater Bay Area areas, as well as in a few other Californian locations.
Take the Warner Brothers studio and the expanded data collecting zone as an example; green offered a screenshot of it.
Tesla Starts Data Collection Four Days Ago
Little is known about the event's exact plans at this point, but the hacker and sleuth claim that data collection started around four days ago. In response to another thread user, Green also disclosed the data-collecting source:
Although the venue for the Robotaxi debut wasn't revealed until only recently, Tesla decided to postpone the event until October 10 from its original August 8 date. The "extra time allows [Tesla] to show off a few other things," Elon Musk remarked, adding that he had asked for "an important design change to the front."
Tesla's FSD Supervised to Lead Robotaxi Tech
Full Self-Driving (FSD), developed by Tesla and made available to all customers in a Supervised release, would serve as the foundation for the forthcoming Robotaxi. When it comes to training an artificial neural network to make the software more safe and competent at driving, FSD Supervised goes above and beyond what other autonomous ride-hailing firms do. This data comes from drivers all throughout the United States and Canada.
Consequently, Tesla asserted that their software would outperform rivals like Waymo, owned by Alphabet, and Cruise, a self-driving subsidiary of General Motors (GM), who rely on pre-mapped service locations.
