I've been in about a half dozen since they aren't deployed in my city yet.
Generally felt pretty good. I don't feel any less safe in one than I feel being driven by an Uber driver at this point.
Coincidentally, my last ride home from the airport I was driven by an Uber driver and a Tesla and he switched it to FSD from entering the highway to my door. I did not realize that it could do full on highway to off highway grid level road yet. Driver is fully responsible for what the vehicle is doing and has a HUD indicating what the vehicle sees, they are supposed to be matching that continuously with what's going on out the window. This does give me some UI questions... I know that we have research from the '90s about having to take your eyes off the road, so I suspect that that HUD would be better served if it were projected on the glass.
