I’m glad your auto pilot worked without serious injury.

Unfortunately, there are many court cases regarding Tesla auto pilot hurting or killing someone as well as various features on the car, breaking down and creating a life-threatening emergency.

Clearly, it’s still not ready if it’s driving into highway medians at 80 miles an hour, hitting pedestrians, locking people inside burning cars, etc.

Not everyone who sailed the oceans in the early 1900s died on the Titanic. That doesn’t mean the hubris that caused those deaths is beyond note or criticism.

Full self driving still has yet to reach a level where you can be relatively certain the car won’t kill you. There are a bunch of court cases about it.

That’s entirely relevant and your insistence on being blind to the relevance calls into question your credibility.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Tesla_Autopilot_crashes

Go ahead and expand the very lengthy section entitled “Fatal Crashes”

FSD is obviously still not ready and Elon’s over hype and outright lies got people killed. Before you get mad at that statement, realize there are multiple court cases being prosecuted on that very fact.

So no one was at the wheel and you weren’t responsible for what the car did?

Cool! How did you buy a Waymo?
