Ummm… we need to talk about Tesla’s latest Full Self-Driving software version 12.3.3. Last night FSD v12.3.3 was downloaded to my Tesla Model 3 via an over-the-air update while it sat parked in my garage. This morning my car drove me from my house, to lunch, then to the gym, then back to my house. MY CAR DROVE ME. The only time I had to disengage FSD was when pulling into my neighborhood, my car smoothly came to a stop to let a woman cross the street who was walking her dogs but she stopped too and waived me through so I disengage FSD and made the turn myself so she could carry on with her walk. THEN this afternoon my Tesla drove me, door-to door, over 230 miles across the state of Florida to Miami. I repeat: MY. CAR. DROVE. ME. TO. MIAMI. The only time I disengaged FSD was when going through a toll section on I-75 because I wasn’t quite sure what it would do so I just took over. Beside that IT DROVE ME, even through downtown Miami during rush-hour. It was smooth, confident, and drama free. To be honest, FSD (beta) software v11, and previous versions, were quite rough/glitchy in my experience; but since Tesla has switched to end-to-end neural network training with FSD v12… IT IS NEXT LEVEL. It’s a quantum leap. I can’t believe what I am experiencing. I want to shout it from the roof tops. The drives today were not only stress-free, they were incredibly relaxing. I actually felt safer with FSD on than with me driving on my own, which is the first time I have ever felt that way using FSD. v12 has changed evening. My mind is blown. This technology is going to change/save lives! I am thrilled that we have gotten this far. The over-the-air updates are coming more and more frequently, so it’s going to continue to get even better from here; eventually getting to a level that is many times smoother and safer than a human driver could ever possibly be. What is really astonishing is that this is not some crazy closed off technology on some rare experimental prototype vehicle. Anyone can experience what I experienced. EVERY NEW TESLA IS CAPABLE OF THIS*. A car that YOU can get TODAY can do this. That’s amazing! After experiencing what I’ve experienced today there is no question in my mind that open-world fully-autonomous vehicles are possible; and it is coming much sooner (in a Tesla near you) than most people realize. Bravo @Tesla

@elonmusk @SawyerMerritt Still nice to have in the interim. Or on the future when people want to feel “old fashioned”.

@mcuban If Elon wanted to protect his “brand”, I don’t think he’d be out intentionally alienating about 50% of his companies’ customer base. I think his personal mission(s) means more to him than that.

@KevinMelnuk Yes! They can’t proliferate those longer cords fast enough. I haven’t stopped at a V4 location yet. I’m driving up to DC at the end of the month. I’m hoping to come across at least one during that trip.

@YunTaTsai1 I have no idea what any of that means, but I’m glad someone does. ☺️ Keep up the great work!
