The announcement came on the same call where Musk confirmed (or rather reconfirmed after backing away from the admision last year) that HW3 “simply does not have the capability” for unsupervised FSD.
For the millions of Tesla owners currently driving HW4 cars, the timing raises an uncomfortable question.
