Elon Musk promises updates including Two-Factor Authentication, Potholes detection for Tesla

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk usually takes to social media, preferably the micro-blogging site Twitter to launch products, make promises, connect with fans, and troll someone. He leaves us no choice but to admire him, especially his Twitter account. 

2FA coming soon!

If the new tweets from Elon Musk are to be believed, the Two-factor authentication for the Tesla app is coming sooner than you think. Back in April, the SpaceX CEO said the additional layer of protection through an SMS or authenticator code would be “coming soon.”

Sorry, this is embarrassingly late. Two factor authentication via sms or authenticator app is going through final validation right now.

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 14, 2020

However, on this Musk responded, saying, “Sorry, this is embarrassingly late. Two-factor authentication via sms or authenticator app is going through final validation right now.” Going by this tweet, we can expect the 2FA very soon, even though there is no exact information on the arrival. 

Crucial to the Tesla app

It’s worth mentioning that the security on the Tesla app is vital since it is a critical tool that gives owners control over numerous functions in their vehicles. This includes vehicle lock/unlock the doors, trunk, and frunk, allows drivers to use their phone as a key, turning on the HVAC system, and more. 

Extra security layer

To reiterate, Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) or Two-step verification is a security process in which users provide two different authentication factors to prove themselves. This adds an extra layer of security, making it harder for attackers to gain access to a person’s devices or online accounts.

Automated detection feature

Yes! We’re labeling bumps & potholes, so the car can slow down or steer around them when safe to do so.

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 14, 2020

On the other hand, Tesla will soon detect bad roads and potholes with its automated detection feature. In a reply to one of his followers, Musk said, “We’re labeling bumps & potholes, so the car can slow down or steer around them when safe to do so.”

Tesla is developing a NN training computer called Dojo to process truly vast amounts of video data. It’s a beast! Please consider joining our AI or computer/chip teams if this sounds interesting.

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 14, 2020

Right now, Tesla is developing a Neural Network training computer called Dojo to process a vast amount of video data. He also appealed to AI and computer/chip experts to join the team that is developing Dojo.

Also definitely coming haha. Will only be on relatively recent cars, as we didn’t have an outside speaker until about a year ago. Can change inside sound easily.

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 14, 2020

Apart from the supercomputer, Tesla is also working on making the horn honk like a goat. However, it will be available only in feature cars.

What do you guys think about it? Do let us know!
