> Does anyone have insights on what QA looks like at Tesla for FSD work? Because all of these seem table-stakes before even thinking about releasing the BETA FSD.
Tesla is not exactly in love with QA. Especially for FSD.
FSD is mainly 2 things:
1. (By far most important) shareholder value creating promise, that's been solved for 6 years according to their CEO.
2. Software engineering research project
What FSD is not is a safety critical systems (which it should be). They focus on cool ML stuff and getting features, with any disregard for how to design, build and test safety critical systems. Validation and QA is basically non-existent.
