The significant upgrade of Tesla’s autopilot, Full-Self Driving, FSD, started to roll out to a few selected people last night, and now we have the first videos.
By the way, Tesla also last night recorded record profits, production and deliveries for Q3.
First som really excited Tesla owners turning on FSD for the very first time.

Here another Tesla owner showing the display as the car drives along.
The future is coming… FSD BETA is here, I hope @Tesla makes progress to get this out to more people soon! Full intersection rendering on the DEV UI is incredible. I didnβt have any interaction other than modifying my following distance. pic.twitter.com/eKhvmPsAt2

Overly cautious at a roundabout… I didnβt have to interact until the end of the process. Not bad for the first attempt! Go FSD BETA! pic.twitter.com/3gPkztUWgY

Elon Musk has said they will do the roll-out of the beta really slow, and if everything goes right, it will be ready for wide release at the end of the year.
The beta test provides Tesla with lots of data to upgrade and make the software better. Similar to how Google Search always gets better because of billions of searches every day.
