2024, I didn't ask the dealership guy what hardware powered it (because I don't care), I reviewed it here actually: https://fuelarc.com/cars/review-2024-tesla-model-3-long-range-rwd/
I don't see how it could have gotten much better with a vision-based solution, but who knows? Personally, it wasn't in the same ballpark as acceptable quality for my use-case. I don't expect incremental software patches will fix that to my satisfaction.
Again, I'm weird, never been in an accident and I drive a ton, I'm particular about my car not crashing because I used to be on an ambulance crew and treating car-crash victims really takes the shine off your apple.

Poor anticipation of turns and poor trailing distance. Didn't spot many other vehicles on the road, too, that's ultimately what made me pull the plug.

Even on non-lethal accidents, Waymo generates something like 12x fewer.
I think that tech will be the automotive equivalent of the polio vaccine. Dying in road accidents will become akin to dying of rabies, a freak accident of extreme rarity. Probably, so will driving cars with no autonomous capabilities.

I'm glad for you!
Personally, I tried it. Wasn't my cup of tea, bad safety margins (it doesn't drive how I drive, and I am particular). There's a consumer for that product, though. So long as you watch it closely, I certainly don't mind, glad it suits you.

It's me. And yes, I'm bad at math, guilty as charged. I tend to make pretty simple points.
But, yes, when a publicly traded company promises exponential growth on their earnings calls, and then delivers double-digit unit delivery a year later, I do tend to point and laugh. All of that is accurate.

- Comment on ICE Agents Surge Into Minneapolis, Immediately Thwarted by Actual Ice 5 months ago:
I thought about riffing on that line from No Country for Old Men there, "even between man and steer, the contest is uncertain."
It was so close to being a joke, but like ICE, I got stuck about 5 yards from my starting point and gave up
