After a brief pause, Tesla (TSLA) AI software development team has picked up pace once again as new FSD Supervised v12.5 updates have started rolling out since last week.

The wait for Hardware 3 (HW3/AI3) Tesla car owners for the Actually Smart Summon (ASS) feature is over. Tesla’s new ASS feature enables the vehicle to reach you in a parking lot or driveway all on its own. HW3 cars lacked this feature but Tesla started rolling it out to those legacy vehicle owners in the FSD v12.5.4 (firmware version 2024.27.25) yesterday (refer to release notes below).

Another big improvement Tesla brought in the FSD v12.5.4 update is the addition of sunglasses to the vision-based attention monitoring system. This means that Tesla drivers can now wear sunglasses while supervising their vehicles during Autopilot FSD (Supervised) drives.
