Tesla is trialling an updated version of its Autopilot software on 1,000 cars in its test fleet, according to tweets by CEO Elon Musk. The rest of the fleet will run the update in "shadow mode", allowing the computer to simulate actions it would take if the software were running. Pending successful tests, the software will be installed in all of Tesla's cars by the end of this week. We have reached out to Tesla for additional information on the update. In a blog post, Musk said that he was testing out new features for his car and had not yet decided whether or not they should make their way into full production.
