Tesla has never claimed "driverless" - the driver has to be there (well, now - earlier firmware versions didn't check for weight in the driver's seat). What they did do is market it as "autopilot", which means different things to different people - in an airplane, "autopilot" merely flies the plane into the direction and altitude set by the pilot - it does not avoid other aircraft, take commands from ATC, or anything like that. So, technically, calling Tesla's auto-steer "autopilot" is pretty accurate. The problem is that most people being unfamiliar with aircraft systems think of autopilot as "something that flies the plane on its own" and analogizes that to driverless cars. You've never flown in a pilotless airplane. Autopilot is not AI.
