Automatic parking is one of those features that sound great in theory, but in practice you often just take over and park the car yourself, be it because the car is too slow or it chooses the wrong parking spot.

According to Tesla CEO Elon Musk ,destination parking on Full Self-Driving is "by far the biggest reason people now intervene with FSD."

But the company is working to fix this, and Autopark should be getting a big upgrade soon.

"Upcoming releases of FSD will remember your parking preferences, so that the car goes to the right location at your home, office, school drop off, etc," he wrote on X.

Musk did not share any details about timing and availability.

In a different tweet, he replied to someone asking when Tesla drivers will be able to use Tesla's built in AI chatbot Grok to issue driving commands. "Need to be able to converse w/ Grok like we can with an Uber driver: “Hey Grok, turn right here.” “Drop us off right here, we'll walk due to traffic.” “Drop at entrance first, then park far away," said the tweet.

"This functionality will be there in about 3 months or so," wrote Musk.
