It's interesting how much backlash something that was already well understood generated.
* FSD Beta is a level 2 system. This means it requires constant supervision. This crystal clear to every FSD Beta driver, the car will both monitor your face, and nag you to touch the wheel every so often to make sure you're paying attention. Too many "strikes" and it will lock you out of FSD Beta for a few weeks. It's basically expected that the software will fuck up every now and then, otherwise it would be level 3/4/5 (i.e require no supervision)
* If you watch the channels that review FSD Beta (Chuck Cook, Dirty Tesla, etc), the vast majority of drives require at least one disengagement. Only very recently with recent versions you would sometimes get the mythical 0 disengagement drive. So FSD beta requiring frequent disengagements is something already well known and understood.
- llamaimperative 3y agoIt’s interesting how people are upset about a system marketed, sold, and operated on public roads as Full Self Driving is in fact nowhere close to fully self driving. Very curious indeed!
- TheCoelacanth 3y agoI just can't imagine why people are upset that Tesla is gambling with their lives to juice their stock price by turning a half-baked self-driving implementation loose on public roads. Truly baffling!
- lm28469 3y agoIt's the only company that advertise it as "auto pilot". Meanwhile all the other major players have the same tech with none of the backlash Interesting
- Shawnj2 3y agoI think if Tesla called it “Enhanced Autopilot” people would be less mad but at the moment their “Full self driving” software does not fully self drive.
- anaganisk 3y agoReleasing a beta product to operate a product that weighs a ton, and quickly accelerates to 60mph in seconds, while not strictly evaluating the end user before granting access, and then marketing it as "Full self driving", while it even fails to do basic, "slow down at curves", is something which makes them deserved for the hate.
