Let’s actually understand what’s happening. Tesla is steadily rolling out Unsupervised Robotaxis in Austin, Dallas, and Houston. The fleet is still small, but each vehicle runs multiple rides per day on a 24/7 operation. As Tesla pursues and awaits regulatory approval in other states, it can continue to collect data to validate FSD. Currently, its doing so in 34 cities across the U.S. At the same time, Active FSD subscriptions are growing (now ~1.3M), driven by FSD V14.3. As FSD gains approval across more EU countries—and eventually China and South Korea—both subscriber count and take rate should continue to rise. Meanwhile, Tesla’s self-driving AI has surpassed 10 billion real-world miles—and is pushing toward the next 10 billion by the end of 2026. Few realize these are all signals of real-world AI scaling. Tesla is an AI company that designs AI chips and manufactures robots at scale. Cars and humanoids are the first two use cases.
