Tesla does that quite regularly.
Summon - "bring your car to you while you deal with a fussing child" (fine print buried far away, "pay complete attention to car").
FSD - "the driver is only in the seat for legal purposes - the car is driving itself".
- wilg 4y agoI'm not sure about your first quote (the only google results were for this comment), but the second one was a demonstration of a feature that was not and is not available!

- wilg 4y agoOK, so what you said is wrong, since the Elon quote is: > [Smart Summon is] the perfect feature to use if you have an overflowing shopping cart, are dealing with a fussy child, or simply don’t want to walk to your car through the rain. … [But] those using Smart Summon must remain responsible for the car and monitor it and its surroundings at all times. So he explicitly explains that you have to monitor it, and does not bury it in the fine print as you claim. Hardly a smoking gun, even if you really are contorting yourself to find something objectionable in this quite.
- FireBeyond 4y agoNo, the Elon quote is as you say. The Tesla marketing page mentions fussy children. The 'full attention and responsibility' is buried away elsewhere.
