My driver profile should be DELETED. I realized that the more I use FSD, the further back my seat has gone into a lounging position, not great for actual driving when I need to re-park. So, I set a manual driving profile that pushes my seat up and steering wheel closer. Hopefully just a temporary solution until Tesla nails unique parking scenarios. I want to manually park my car once and have it remember that exact spot every single time.

This felt like the beginning of a movie. Civilizations greatest endeavor accelerates now.

Cool Astronaut tradition taking place: Commander Reid Wiseman just called down to Mission Control to request that the crew of the ISS remove Jeremy Hansen's name from the LUFA (League of Unflown Astronauts) patch in the U.S. Lab. Artemis II is Hansen's first time in space.

NASA kept the American flag meant to be planted on the Moon with the Apollo 18 mission, before the program was cancelled. It turns out the Artemis II had that same flag on board this entire time, as they flew around the Moon, kicking off humanity's return to the Moon. 🇺🇸

I spent 6 hours at Tesla Boston and spoke to well over 50 people. Most had never even heard of Optimus before, their minds were completely blown. Great work by Tesla getting Optimus in front of visitors from all over the world who are here for the Boston Marathon.

UNDENIABLE PROOF: Mark Rober edited an iPhone to look like a Pixel, but missed a frame! If he would edit something this small, it's not hard to imagine what else was carefully constructed. Not saying FSD would see the wall, but Mark is saying it as fact when we don't know.

This will be huge and make summon even better. I didn't get to fully test it, but Robotaxi no longer strictly navigates to the pickup point. I noticed it stops right where I am if I am ahead of the pickup point. In this video it's supposed to go to the valet, yet it stopped right where I was just like an uber would. Ruined the epic shot, but much better than when it used to drive right past you!

Breadcrumbs of Banish appear to be in the latest Actually Smart Summon release. My Model 3 parked itself on ASS (FSD v14.3.2) after I blocked the road and used hand signals to direct it into a parking spot (target was on opposite side of the building). I've never seen it do this before. It didn't just pull in across the lines, it parked near-perfectly like it does on FSD. Worked with my Model 3 and TeslaFSD - Dave's Model Y on first attempt. Of course when I brought out the camera it took like 7 tries, but it eventually did it again! Not enough data to conclude if it's actually listening to my hand signals, or just giving up and deciding to park instead of block the road. Would be interesting to see if other people can try and replicate this. Everything is there for Banish to work, just comes down to Tesla feeling comfortable enough to let it go unsupervised in parking lots.
