OTA updates have had literally deadly consequences. There was an issue in which "autopilot" poorly recognized left-exits, including a particular one in California. It got some publicity and was fixed by an OTA update. Good! Except that a couple of months later another OTA update reverted whatever part of the "autopilot" model had learned not to drive straight into a concrete wall separating a left exit, and it killed someone. So yes, ML combined with OTA can certainly be dangerous, but Tesla fans will soon show up in droves to explain why that man's death is his fault, or the fault of anyone but Tesla. As far as fraudulent claims, Musk has repeatedly made statements related to self-driving that some people consider to be well beyond the pale of optimism, including promising that every Tesla sold after a certain would include all hardware needed for full self-driving, and then doing the same thing a few years later, apparently rendering the first statement factually false in retrospect. Musk has made many, many, many statements about timelines that have not worked out, and some that probably still won't work out, and some people label that fraudulent. I think it's just naïve, but as the CEO of a public-traded company, his naïveté is pretty stunning and has resulted in fines.
