Tesla releases FSD Beta 10.4

Tesla has now started the roll out for their latest FSD Beta v10.4. The beta was initially set to go live last night, but the release was pushed back when Tesla found an issue that needed to be fixed.

Elon tweeted that Tesla would issue a patch early this morning at 3 AM. Tesla would then continue testing with Tesla employees and then roll out publicly if everything looked good.

The public roll out of the beta has now begun with the first testers getting it tonight. The build comes in as version 2021.36.8.5. Tesla will continue to roll it out gradually to additional testers every hour.

If you’re an existing FSD Beta tester it could take up to a day before you receive the updated beta.

Testers are reporting that Tesla is pushing out the beta over LTE as well, so you should be able to update to the latest FSD Beta even without WiFi access.

Tesla is continuing the trend by publishing technical release notes with this release. The technical release notes state:

- Improved handling when driving off navigation route by allowing better recovery, when safe to do so

- Improved handling and detection of high speed objects when crossing high speed roads. Enabled faster acceleration across high speed roads.

- Improved speed through narrow spaces surrounded by high obstacles.

- Improved static obstacle control by upreving the generalized static object network with hyperparameter tuning and improvements for oversampling strategies (+1.5% precision, +7.0% recall)

- Improved VRU detection (e.g. pedestrians, bicyclists, motorcycles) by adding data from next generation autolabeler (precision +35%, recall +20%)

- Improved emergency vehicle detection network by adding new data and improved training regime (pass rate +5.8%)

- Improved VRU control relevance attribute by adding navigation route as input to object detection network (accuracy + 1.1%)

Press the "Video Record" button on the top bar UI to share your feedback. When pressed, your vehicle's external cameras will share a short VIN associated Autopilot Snapshot with the Tesla engineering team to help make improvements to FSD. You will not be able to view the clip.

Sentry Mode Live Access

This latest FSD Beta is based off of Tesla’s 2021.36.8 branch, which includes Sentry Mode Live Access. With Sentry Mode Live Access you can access live video feeds from your car’s cameras when Sentry Mode is activated.

You will need Tesla app version 4.2.1 or higher, which is currently available for iPhones, but should become available for Android users in the near future.

98 Safety Scores

The FSD Beta program is expected to be expanded to additional beta testers with a Safety Score of 98 or higher. There are reportedly about 11,000 beta testers currently.

Tesla has been slowly adding more testers once they reach Tesla’s target Safety Score. If you have a Safety Score of 98 or higher in the future, you should be let into Tesla’s FSD Beta program.
