> People will pay $20K for sport brakes or $10K for an unusual paint color. But they get the brakes and they get the paint. What they get with supposed "full self-driving" is puffery and lies. Musk's public statements around FSD since 2014 have been lies: https://jalopnik.com/elon-musk-promises-full-self-driving-next-year-for-th-1848432496 https://jalopnik.com/elon-musk-promises-full-self-driving-ne... In 2016 Tesla claimed that all Teslas being produced "will have the hardware needed for full self-driving capability at a safety level substantially greater than that of a human driver." That was a lie: https://www.tesla.com/blog/all-tesla-cars-being-produced-now-have-full-self-driving-hardware https://www.tesla.com/blog/all-tesla-cars-being-produced-now... And these days Teslas can't even do full self-parking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsb2XBAIWyA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsb2XBAIWyA Now the word is that suckers who paid for FSD in a Tesla with Hardware 3 probably won't get Hardware 4: https://www.thedrive.com/news/tesla-cybertruck-gets-new-self-driving-computer-that-might-not-be-retrofit-to-other-evs https://www.thedrive.com/news/tesla-cybertruck-gets-new-self... Tesla was recently done for false advertising around FSD: https://electrek.co/2022/12/12/tesla-ordered-upgrade-self-driving-computer-for-free-false-advertising/ https://electrek.co/2022/12/12/tesla-ordered-upgrade-self-dr... Tesla also admits they have failed to deliver full self-driving but they think they don't need to refund any money because "failure is not fraud": https://electrek.co/2022/12/07/tesla-self-driving-claims-failure-realize-long-term-aspirational-goal-not-fraud/ https://electrek.co/2022/12/07/tesla-self-driving-claims-fai... Despite the admission of failure, Musk is still running around claiming that FSD will one day magically become the "biggest asset value increase of anything in history": https://electrek.co/2023/01/26/elon-musk-thinks-not-smart-dont-teslas-full-self-driving-claims/ https://electrek.co/2023/01/26/elon-musk-thinks-not-smart-do... It's not even bullshit artistry. It's just bullshit.
