I am glad you are happy. As someone who paid >$100k for a new car, of course you are going to get _free_ upgrades.
But, it is immoral to ship something thats barely level 2 and market it as an autopilot. Yes, they have made great strides, but tesla basically gambled that no one would crash.
This is the issue I have with our industry. That kind of slapdash "lets work 100 hour weeks and ship anyway, yes the target is impossible but a broken MVP is better than no MVP" is fine for a webapp. But for life critical software, no, no its not.
- toomuchtodo 8y agoIf you as a consumer think “Autopilot” means full autonomy, you are undereducated and/or misinformed. That’s not Tesla’s fault, and they don’t advertise Autopilot as such, either on their website or in the numerous warnings in the vehicle interface. I don’t agree it’s immoral to ship what they’re shipping calling it Autopilot. I do agree much more work needs to go into how life critical systems are developed and deployed, but impressed at Tesla’s development velocity without sacrificing safety (as evidenced by so few deaths in Tesla vehicles overall).
