In the United States, there is a traffic fatality roughly every 79 million miles.
Tesla FSD has now traveled 6.4 billion miles. Assuming it was no more or less safe than driving manually, you would expect there to be 81 fatalities with FSD on.
As a matter of fact, with 14 million miles traveled every day you would expect to see a fatality with FSD on every 5 days.
But that's not happening. As far as I can tell there are only ~2 reported fatalities with FSD active — both on much older versions.
I'm forced to conclude that there are at least ~75 people who are alive today because of the work of the
@Tesla_AI
team. And we're just getting started.
To give you a visual on that, if you put everyone in North America who is alive today because of FSD in a room together it would look like this:
