Tesla's head of AI, Ashok Elluswamy, confirmed the company is working on voice-based improvements to its Full Self-Driving (FSD) software after a user suggested allowing drivers to verbally direct the car to specific homes. Elluswamy replied, “Working on it,” but provided no specific timeline for the feature rollout. In June, Tesla CEO Elon Musk pegged the casual conversation functionality to be made available on FSD in about “3 months or so,” pinning the timeline around September 2026 at the earliest. Tesla vehicles with recent software have access to xAI’s AI chatbot Grok, but it does not currently support voice commands for car controls other than navigation. Tesla stock fell 3% at the time of writing. On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around TSLA stock stayed within the bullish territory over the past 24 hours, while message volume stayed at high levels.
