We announced an agreement to acquire a nationwide low-band spectrum license portfolio that will pave the way for @Starlink to become a major mobile carrier in the US.
With this new spectrum and our Gen2 constellation, Starlink Mobile can ensure Americans have access to high-speed mobile broadband no matter where they are → spacex.com/updates#starlink-…

The difference between FSD Supervised and other autonomy solutions is that FSD works anywhere in the US & Canada—even in places the car has never seen before!
It interacts with the world just like humans do, using vision & neural nets.
It doesn’t rely on pre-mapped areas or expensive equipment.
If you can drive somewhere, FSD Supervised can too

Tesla is the best. It just is. My 8-year-old son begs us to drive in our Tesla whenever we leave the house. Because it's designed to be cool to 8-year-old boys -- which means to literally everyone.

As October comes to a close, here's an update on the releases
What we completed:
- End-to-end on highway has shipped to ~50k customers with v12.5.6.1
- Cybertruck build that improves responsiveness
- Successful We, Robot event with 50 autonomous Teslas safely transporting over 2,000 passengers
What's coming next:
- Full rollout of end-to-end highway driving to all AI4 users, targeted for early next week, including enhancements in stop smoothness, less annoying bad weather notifications, and other safety improvements
- Improved v12.5.x models for AI3 city driving
- Actually Smart Summon release to Europe, China and other regions of the world
- v13 is a package of following major technology upgrades:
- 36 Hz, full-resolution AI4 video inputs
- Native AI4 inputs and neural network architectures
- 3x model size scaling
- 3x model context length scaling
- 4.2x data scaling
- 5x training compute scaling (enabled by the Cortex training cluster)
- Much improved reward predictions for collision avoidance, following traffic controls, navigation, etc.
- Efficient representation of maps and navigation inputs
- Audio inputs for better handling of emergency vehicles
- Redesigned controller for smoother, more accurate tracking
- Integrated unpark, reverse, and park capabilities
- Support for destination options including pulling over, parking in a spot, driveway, or garage
- Improved camera cleaning and handling of camera occlusions
We have integrated several of these improvements and are already seeing a 4x increase in miles between necessary interventions compared to v12.5.4.
This lays the foundation for the v13 series, and we are targeting to ship v13.0 to internal customers by the end of this week.
Most of the remaining items are independently validated and will be integrated over November in a series of point releases.
We are targeting a wide release with v13.3 with most of the above improvements for AI4 vehicles around Thanksgiving!
Due to popular demand, Tesla AI team release roadmap:
September 2024
- v12.5.2 with ~3x improved miles between necessary interventions
- v12.5.2 on AI3 computer (unified models for AI3 and AI4)
- Actually Smart Summon
- Cybertruck Autopark 📐
- Eye-tracking with sunglasses 🕶️
- End-to-End network on highway 🛣️
- Cybertruck FSD 📐
October 2024
- Unpark, Park and Reverse in FSD
- v13 with ~6x improved miles between necessary interventions
Q1 2025
- FSD in Europe (pending regulatory approval) 🌍
- FSD in China (pending regulatory approval) 🇨🇳

What's special about FSD Supervised is that it works anywhere in the US & Canada.
No high definition maps, no geofence.
This means you can even use it in places that no Tesla has never traveled to before

In Q3, we:
→ opened 2.8K Supercharger stalls, +23% year-over-year network growth
→ delivered 1.4 TWh, +27% year-over-year growth
→ saved 150+ million gallons of gasoline, offsetting 3+ billion lbs of CO2
