I trust the intelligence of drivers, but this brings up a good point. Could calling it "autopilot" be perhaps a bit much right now? I'm not claiming it's false advertising kind of bad, but I can see it being better for marketing than giving a reasonable sense of what the feature is capable of.
- sarah180 9y agoI would argue that the "creates false expectations that leads to fatal automobile collisions" kind of bad is potentially a more serious kind of bad than the "false advertising" kind of bad.
- shkkmo 9y agoIt is an accurate use of the term. If the system is warning you when you take your hands of the wheel, you would have to be a moron to assume that your attention is not required.
