Tesla may have gotten rid of the nag

In yet another move forward for FSD and autonomy, it appears that Tesla has gotten rid of the wheel nag. One FSD driver said he went 30 minutes on FSD 12.3.2 in his Model X and never once had a steering wheel nag popup on the scree in 30 minutes. Tesla may be reducing the need for the driver to pay attention due to how good FSD is getting.

Take a careful look at the below Tweet that shows the before and after for the enable FSD feature for a Tesla vehicle. The latest popup is on the left and the older one is on the right.

The dialog has much less in text and says:

Under your supervision, Full Self-Driving (Supervised) can drive your Tesla almost anywhere. It will make lane changes, select forks to follow your navigation route, navigate around other vehicles and objects, and make left and right turns. It must be used with additional caution and an attentive driver. It does not make your vehicle autonomous. Do not become complacent.

Cabin Camera is used to detect driver attentiveness while FSD (Supervised) is in-use to provide you with audible alerts, reminding you to keep your eyes on the road.

By continuing, you allow Cabin Camera (above the rearview mirror) to determine inattentiveness and remind you to keep your eyes on the road when FSD (Supervised) is active.

Do you want to enable FSD (Supervised)?

Is The Steering Wheel Nag Gone?

I sure hope the steering wheel nag is gone and will be gone from Autopilot as well. So far, it just appears that it's FSD that may not have the steering wheel nag anymore. It is just that good.

This is another clue for those paying attention that Tesla's vehicles are moving on the path toward autonomy.

Eventually, the cabin camera nag will go away, and the driver will still be required to pay attention at all times and take over if necessary.

Then, that statement will go away and Tesla will say that FSD is now unsupervised.

Things are moving quick!
