Irresponsible? From a company that sticks glorified lane assist and touts it as full autonomous driving (“pending regulatory approval” lol)? Shocked pikachu face


There’s plenty of reason to criticise Tesla without relying on false narratives. With a couple of rare historical exceptions Tesla do reliably distinguish AP and FSD.

(Also, the generic term for what AP does is lane centering, not lane assist.)


AP and FSD are both arguably referable to as “glorified lane assist” considering how well they work. Both are incredibly misleading names at the very least, which speaks to the “irresponsible” thesis.


And a car is a glorified tricycle.
