Tesla has been full of it on FSD for a while now, at least the current beta is rolled out to a much more restricted set of people, although they still sell the general one to the general public...
But WHY is a (I'm assuming) concrete post that short and painted DARK GREEN? Green seems like a horrible choice for a post in night driving. That's not every particularly well designed for human driving. San Jose? Why isn't this post yellow? Yellow seems to be the typical concrete post color.
Surface/local street FSD driving is 10-20 years away and will require a lot of convergence, construction standards, regulatory testing, common databases of "danger locations", etc. It's so much harder. So many "target types" so much variation, so many different local standards.
In particular I don't agree with Tesla's lack of a database or route-specific training or the like. Lidar I think is actually less of an issue than that approach.
But a good divided highway automation should be doable. That has a lot more standardization, and higher amounts of traffic would lead to better statistical models and datasets for proving out algorithms.
These are the problems in highway driving: traffic jams (can be prewarned)/ stopped cars (a current tesla issue), deer/animals wandering onto the road, construction (can be signaled in a standard way and prewarned). Debris/potholes?
