I try to remember that we, the public, doesn't have any idea how many miles are driven on autopilot or full-self-driving. We hear about crashes and argue about whether or not FSD/autopilot was engaged or made a warning and disengaged at the last moment but the driver failed to avoid to crash. But we don't know the denominator in the ratio of crashes per mile so we can't directly compare it with human only or other manufacturers' automation products.

It’s around 1 accident every 5 million miles while using Autopilot and 1 accident per 1.5 million miles when not. Keep in mind that Autopilot only works on highways so these numbers are not directly comparable - it’s a biased sample.
For FSD they have been publishing a “Cumulative miles driven with FSD Beta” chart in their quarterly “Shareholder Deck” since Q2 2022.

As of 4/19/23 it’s over 150 million miles. This is of limited value without accident counts.
However during their 2023 Investor Day Presentation they gave the accident rate for FSD as 1 per 3.2 million miles. It’s on page 92 of the pdf that can be downloaded here:
