Tesla Inc's (NASDAQ:TSLA) Full Self-Driving (FSD) Beta program began in October 2020 and has been subject to numerous revisions.

With the introduction of FSD Beta Version 11 — and the subsequent updates bringing it to 11.4.7 — the company started using a single software stack for both city and highway driving, bringing it closer to FSD Version 12.

If you're a Tesla fanatic, you'll notice the word “Beta” wasn't in front of FSD Version 12 — it's not supposed to be.

Musk, in late June, said that Version 12 of FSD will no longer be in Beta — which suggests that Tesla's FSD will be purportedly perfected at the time of release. When Raznick asked Wood about the implications, she answered, “Well, if you received the last software upgrade, you’ll see how much FSD has improved.”

Wood’s focus on safety reflects Ark Invest’s broader investment philosophy, which prioritizes disruptive technologies with transformative potential.

“What we’re seeing is certain breakthroughs in AI [are] taking Tesla closer to its goal,” Wood said, adding that Tesla’s current safety metrics are based on the information that accidents during which FSD is enabled occur “once every 3.2 million miles” — a significant improvement over both Tesla’s pre-FSD metrics and the average human driver.

“It only took [Cruise] three months, so 90 days to figure Austin out, I’m sure it’s motivating Elon even more."
