Tesla FSD V12.1 Rolling Out to Wave 1 Over 15000 Employees

by

Teslascope tracks Tesla software and they confirm that Full Self-Driving (Beta) V12.1 has now rolled out to Wave1, which including 15,000+ personally-owned. The release notes for FSD beta v12.1 appear to show just a single paragraph detailing the change, which Teslascope expects will be added to before its public release to non-employees.

The account has also noted that those involved in the first wave of the rollout could include between 16,500 and 20,000 vehicles total, and that all of those in the initial wave are subject to strict non-disclosure agreements at the risk of termination or removal from the FSD beta program.

FSD beta v12 transitions the autosteer on city streets system to a single stack end-to-end neural network that is trained on millions of video clips, eliminating the need for over 300,000 lines of human-written C++ code.

CEO Elon Musk demonstrated an early build of FSD v12 in a live stream in August, and he confirmed late last month that the version was already rolling out to some employees. Musk has also said that the FSD v12 would lose the “beta” distinction, though it’s not yet clear if this will be the case or not, and the screenshot shared by Teslascope still includes the word.
