Average guy who loves autonomous vehicles
Got my first little drive this morning on 2019.12.1.1 and auto steer seems much better than 2019.12.1.

I really hate the way the updates are rolled out. It’s horrible. Some get it some don’t, so random. Not premium at all.

Which "premium" cars do better routine software/feature updates to their cars on an ongoing basis again?
I'm confused by the auto high beam thing- isn't that how it always worked? (switching down to low beams if it sees an oncoming car)
We don't have auto high beams at all yet in Europe, so I welcome this update.
Agreed re #2. I watch Teslafi firmware tracker and hope I am not in the first three or four days because that seems to be the shelf life of the “failed” beta tests. When I had both cars on 8.5 for several weeks that seemed like a good place. Both cars are now on 12.1.1 and that one seems to still be rolling out in huge numbers, so that is encouraging but the next couple days will be key. For those people who were mad they didn’t get 12 or 12.1, they should be grateful as both were quickly pulled.I get where you're coming from, but a few things to consider:
1) They don't have the ability to blast updates of this size to everyone simultaneously. Few companies do, let alone car companies.
2) Tesla use customers as integration/beta testers to minimize the internal testing team size (cost savings), which is one reason why there are so many versions out there.
3) The randomness of update delivery is purely to get a fresh data sample to help flush out blocking issues quickly.
I'm not a big fan of #2, because that should be an opt-in scenario. I get why they do it, but it's a touch sleazy IMO.
Look, I’m not comparing this to other cars. They absolutely have the ability to push out software updates at scale. 140k clients is a drop in the bucket for my line of work with over 400k devices. We push deployments nightly. So that isn’t an excuse.
Totally understand the slow approach for testing and such.
What do you mean turned up?Hi Folks, just got this this today - popped-up when I turned-up at Tesla Service Centre, as is often the case.

For the software update feature in 2019.12.1.1, is it true or false you still have to wait for Tesla to push the update to your car ? Will we still get update notifications on the phone app ??
Yes, you still have to wait for an update to be assigned to your car. The difference is that you can see if you have an update pending and that you need to get WiFi connected to download it sooner. You will still get a notification on the phone after it has downloaded and it is ready to install.
