The big problem with Autopilot is the sleazy way it’s been marketed and sold to customers and regulators versus what the system really is. Charging folks $10k for an option with the CEO insisting that “full self driving” is shipping next year is borderline fraud.
I won’t buy a GM product and I won’t buy a Tesla product either, happy?
- bastawhiz 5y agoIt's worth being precise about the terminology: Autopilot comes with the car (autosteer), FSD is what costs $10k extra. Conflating the two makes it harder to have a conversation about what either actually is or does.

- bastawhiz 5y agoAutopilot (name aside) does the same exact thing that most car manufacturers offer in luxury cars. So I'm not sure what part you think is a scam.
