Elon Musk said FSD Beta 10 will release midnight Friday September 10, 2021. The FSD Beta 10.1 should be on September 24, 2021. Beta 10.1 should be good enough for the public opt in request button in the US. Other regions will follow a few months later.
FSD Beta 10 rolls out midnight Friday next week

Looks promising that Beta 10.1, about 2 weeks later, will be good enough for public opt in request button

Do you have any updates on approval of FSD beta for Canadian users?🇨🇦
— Toby Li (@tobyliiiiiiiiii) September 2, 2021
Not sure, but maybe a few months. In general for any region, we need to make software work well, test it extensively & then get regulatory approval. If we could go faster while being safe, we would!

Some tweets from Sawyer Merrit for FSD items from the Tesla All-Hands meeting.
• He is praising the Tesla team for their hard work
• "FSD 10 is quite profound, a revelation, is the future; V10 next week and “button request” 2 weeks after that" Elon said— Sawyer Merritt 📈🚀 (@SawyerMerritt) September 3, 2021
• Elon said Tesla is considering Model 2 not having steering wheel and pedals and just roll the dice on FSD

• Open charging network very soon, starting maybe next month using Tesla app. It will start in Europe.

You'd hope so, it's driving you to your destination…
9.x required two different neural networks stacks, one for highway and one for streets. 10.x has a single merged stack now, so street like situations on a highway might be dealt with better.
But only once.
It's basically just driving assistance package, like Autopilot with traffic-aware cruise control and autosteer; Along with the hope of one day growing up to be a proper autonomous system like Waymo et al.
Hm.. I think Elon is selling version 10.0 to hard. He talks about a "revelation" and "seeing the future". Could that be saying a bit too much?
Versions 9.0, 9.1 and 9.2 were a bit underwhelming. Sure, the change from radar+vision to pure vision was a great technological leap, but from a user perspective the system only improved in some minor ways. Feels more smooth, more assertive, … And it would still want to drive into mono rail pillars…
Does anyone know what FSD 10 can do? I know that “Full Self Driving” can’t actually do full self driving. But what can it do?
Highway driving? City? Stop signs and stop lights? Night? Rain? Snow?
I’m not criticizing. I’m just truly curious what FSD 10 actually means.
Maybe set up an USB port to insert a game pad?

Really, they should of renamed it the no-hands meeting.
No steering wheel… Reminds me of some scene from Minority Report. And, those who indeed don't deserve driving in the vicinity of other humans will not give up the wheel on their own.
Perhaps this will be the real turning point….
