The product being used was not "Full Self Driving". He was using "Autopilot" which comes with the vehicle. FSD is a completely separate, and expensive, upgrade.
Thoroughly enjoying the completely uninformed comments on this.
- TheCoelacanth 5y ago"Autopilot" is still highly misleading.
- thehappypm 5y agoMaybe to you. “Autopilot” is a term I don’t think has an incredibly clear meaning. Planes are known to have autopilot, but I think of it like “we’ve reached cruising altitude, going to point this bird at LGA and let the autopilot keep us on the right route”. I don’t know what the analogy would be for cars. Maybe something like adaptive cruise control plus lane keeping and auto braking?
- vanusa 5y agoThen call it "adaptive cruise control" and be done with it. There's only one reason they pick the term "autopilot" -- and that is to give people the impression that these cars have magical powers that they do not, in fact have. And until proven otherwise, most likely will never have.
