Hey, thank you.

Hey everybody, Rob Maower here and today, even though we are less than a day out from Tesla's Q3 earnings report, we already have news

0:14.2

upstaging those results.

0:15.8

Tesla has started to, in a very limited way, roll out the full self-driving rewrite,

0:20.8

beta, and we are already starting to see some videos from that

0:23.8

beta pop up online so today's episode is going to be focused on that because this is

So this is one of the main missing features right now, and it is here in the

1:18.9

beta, unsurprisingly, but great to see that it successfully handles that turn, though in this case it did have a lead vehicle
