Their website now prominently states “supervised” since they got into so much hot water overselling the capabilities.

Tesla FSD is really in a pointless middle ground where the steep $99/month they ask for it is just not worth it.

It does basically nothing for you on the highway to alleviate fatigue above and beyond a standard adaptive cruise control system you can find in a Volkswagen Jetta.

The FSD on city streets is not autonomous enough to take away supervision so for the 10-20 minutes people typically spend driving in city traffic situations before reaching their destination it’s not saving a whole lot of effort to just…drive yourself.

I would think if I owned a car that wasn’t an old ass beater like I have I would mainly benefit from adaptive cruise control on long trips and perhaps some convenience stuff like automatic parking.

What is the point of such trolling?
