At the moment Tesla autopilot often misses many speed limit signs that I encounter in Switzerland, including all LED ones. Will this be fixed by the end of 2024?
I will resolve it on 2025-01-01 by taking a ride in a Tesla Model Y and counting the number of signs that it interpreted correctly. The question will be resolved to YES if the car correctly reads the speed limit ≥ 90% of the time.
End speed limit signs also count.

I only did a short drive today and my Tesla got the speed limit wrong on 2 out of 11 segments. (A segment = a continuous stretch of road where neither the official speed limit, nor Tesla's perceived speed limit changes.) I initially planned a longer ride, but this result agrees with my experience from driving around, so I'll just resolve the question as NO.
There was one boost in speed signs recognition which came around September, but it wasn't enough to push the success rate above 90%.
@GtothaM Yeah, the signs around Europe are pretty similar to each other. That's why I mentioned European signs in general in the question title.
Currently it feels like it is right maybe 80% of the time. Two most common errors:
it invents a speed limit where there hasn't been any signs (possibly from the map data),
it assumes incorrect speed limit after the sign of the end of speed limit zone (e.g. 60 km/h outside of the city instead of 80 km/h)
