“Translation: all the times Tesla has vowed that all of its vehicles would soon be capable of fully driving themselves may have been a convenient act of salesmanship that ultimately turned out not to be true.”
Another way to say that, is Tesla scammed all of their customers, since you know, everyone saw this coming…
The main issue I have with full self driving is that it’ll probably never actually be full self driving; there’ll always be use cases where people have to take over - ice, snow, slightly flooded roads, sand, whatever*. And humans will have to take over under conditions when it’s extremely helpful for them to have had extensive driving experience under a range of conditions - experience they’ll no longer have because the car’s been driving them everywhere.
* Yes, I know we’re not supposed to drive in some of these conditions, and yet sometimes we have to, even if it’s just to get to a safer place.
