Don't pretend that Tesla doesn't know exactly what people think when they hear "autopilot". It can be literally true and still deceptive marketing, like a jar of yogurt labeled "light" because it's lighter in color than the regular kind.
- hndamien 8y agoIt is funny how rather than debating the point and relying on what words actually mean resolves to pedantry on hackernews.
- PhasmaFelis 8y agoLike how you're ignoring the repeated assertions that Tesla salespeople and Musk are misrepresenting or outright lying about the "autopilot's" capabilities? If you want to debate the point, you can't just ignore all the parts that you inconveniently have no answer to.
- hndamien 8y agoI ignored what Tesla sales people say because it is anecdotal and contrary to what I experienced when I bought mine. Far from ignore the parts "I have no answer to", I acknowledge the parts that are misleading like the video. I can only presume that you ignored reading my comments and enjoy misleading yourself. I'll place it here for you again to read. "I will admit showing a video of full hands off video, not on a highway, underneath a statement about the hardware, showing off software being used in a way that is not recommended in the manual is bad." Good on you for editing "smug pedant" out of your comment.
