"Tesla Offers Free Trial of Full Self-Driving Software to US Customers"

Tesla is offering a one-month trial of its $12,000 Full Self-Driving Beta software to all U.S. customers with compatible hardware, while also mandating demos for prospective buyers. This move comes as the company faces a civil lawsuit over a 2018 crash involving Autopilot. The new "V12" version of the software, running on neural networks, has received praise but also criticism. Expanding access to the software could provide more training data but also raises concerns about misuse and safety.

"Hacker Reveals Tesla's 'Elon Mode' - The Ultimate Driving Behavior"

Tesla's FSD Beta software has a "God mode" called "Elon mode," which mainly removes steering wheel nags and changes braking behavior to "less intense." Ethical hacker Green tested the feature during a 600-mile road trip and found it to be better than his prior attempt. He suggests that getting rid of the nags would be a good thing because people would spend less time noticing FSD Beta shortcomings, but it could also result in accidents. To enable "Elon mode," one would need someone at Tesla to enable it or force their way into the software to activate it.
