It doesn’t make that much difference what Tesla calls their latest beta software update imho.

Autopilot and FSD Beta are two different systems of which autopilot is the less advanced one. There's only one death ever linked to the use of FSD Beta and that includes the older versions aswell.

The only statistics available regarding the safety of FSD and autopilot are from Tesla itself which one should probably take with a grain of salt but they seem to idicate it being 5x safer than an average American driver.

Then there are ofcourse plenty of independent YouTubers doing videos of putting these systems to test such as AI DRIVR and CYBRLFT who give pretty honest assesments on the strenghts and weaknesess of them.
