      And then make you look at and use a giant touchscreen to control anything, taking your attention off the road.

      That’s not entirely true. They didn’t activate any of the interior cameras until 2022. The majority of their training data doesn’t have that context. Additionally, you can technically disable that camera by turning off data sharing from the vehicle.

        So it is true, but it wasn’t true in the past? It can also be disabled by breaking the camera or putting tape over it. The point is that it does do that, which is a true statement.

          It does do that but the data that was collected to train the AP features was collected before that camera was enabled. So, although it’s there, Tesla didn’t train the cars knowing when people weren’t paying attention. So it does do that now but that’s not helpful for how the cars were trained, which was the actual point of this thread.
