End-to-End Autonomy (Tesla Cybercab)
Removing the steering wheel entirely.
Explore this event on the interactive timeline →The shift from hardcoded driving rules to an "End-to-End" neural network allowed AI to learn how to drive simply by watching millions of hours of human driving video, leading to the creation of the Cybercab.

Verified Facts
- Starting with FSD v12 and v13, Tesla deleted hundreds of thousands of lines of C++ code, replacing it with a pure neural network that maps raw video pixels directly to steering controls.
- In April 2026, mass production of the Tesla Cybercab began in Texas. The vehicle is purpose-built for the robotaxi network and features absolutely zero human controls—no steering wheel, no pedals.
- This officially marks the transition from cars as "personal transport" to cars as "autonomous mobility-as-a-service nodes" operating unsupervised in geofenced cities.
