JAKARTA - Tesla's chief executive, Elon Musk, said Monday, August 23 that the electric car maker is working to scale up a long-awaited update to its self-driving software "as soon as possible".

The billionaire entrepreneur tweeted that the Full Self-Driving Beta version 9.2 was "not really great (in my opinion), but the Autopilot/AI team is getting together to improve as quickly as possible".

FSD Beta 9.2 is actually not great imo, but Autopilot/AI team is rallying to improve as fast as possible.

We’re trying to have a single stack for both highway & city streets, but it requires massive NN retraining.

"We're trying to have one stack for highways & city roads, but that requires massive NN (neural network) retraining".

Tesla recently came under scrutiny from US safety regulators, who opened an investigation into its driver assistant system over an accident in which its car hit a stationary police car and fire truck.

Two US senators also asked the Federal Trade Commission to investigate Tesla, saying Tesla is misleading consumers and endangering the public by marketing its driving automation system as a fully self-driving system.
