This panel discussion podcast features several Tesla Full Self-Driving (FSD) beta testers who share their experiences with the V13 software update. The podcast begins with an introduction by the hosts, who then pose the question of why this highly-praised update isn't yet widely available. The panelists discuss the software's performance, noting significant improvements in safety and driving smoothness compared to previous versions, while acknowledging some minor remaining issues. They speculate on reasons for the delayed rollout, including potential alignment with hardware releases and holiday updates. Finally, the discussion shifts to the broader implications of FSD's progress, including its potential impact on Tesla sales and the possibility of licensing the technology to other automakers. One specific takeaway is the panelists' near-unanimous positive assessment of V13's performance, despite its limited release.
