While I agree that Musk is overpromising the capabilities of FSD (or timeline thereof), and the rollout may be too soon, I also think the article is very one-sided. The so-called "Tesla Fans" seem to have a point in that it is a bit suspect that her research receives funding from Tesla's direct competitors[0], and that she seems to be on the board of a LIDAR company, for which she receives $400k in shares per year[1].
I also think it's sort of ugly that Musk is now being smeared as this republican guy, for character assasination. He seems to mostly stay out of politics, considering his influence.
