Weird, when I go to Tesla's Autopilot page[1], I'm presented with a video demo where the driver has his hands off of the wheel. The video has the following caption:
> The person in the driver's seat is only there for legal reasons. He is not doing anything. The car is driving itself.

- darpa_escapee 7y agoThat's a stretch. The video is directly under the headline of "Autopilot". Absolutely nothing on the page suggests that the video is demonstrating features that don't exist yet. Both the Center For Auto Safety and Consumer Watchdog[1] have filed claims of deceptive advertising with the FTC because of this Autopilot video. It's really reaching to claim that the video is demonstrating anything other than Autopilot.

- ncallaway 7y agoThe video on that page makes no mention of FSD. The video is separated by approximately 7 content blocks from any mention of FSD. I could completely understand a reasonable person thinking this was a demonstration of Autopilot, given it’s the primary content block on the /autopilot landing page.
