I never bought into the hype of the autopilot system. I was hopeful that they’d figure out how to completely self-drive but wasn’t will to pay money for it.
My neighbor paid $10k for FSD and had the moment of summoning the car with his phone in front of the neighbors at a block party. I tried it out when I earned a few months free. After the second time it slammed on the brakes in the middle of the interstate I shut off the subscription.
The pursuit of FSD has definitely driven some compute innovation at Tesla, but the promised coast-to-coast drive without intervention just isn’t there yet.

- sshine 3y agoI treat the autopilot like every pedestrian, bicyclist and other driver in traffic: they’re out to kill me or themselves suddenly and out of the blue. Cruise and lane control (Autosteer on Tesla) with a firm grip on the wheel and a foot tensely suspended over the speeder is still nicer than driving completely by yourself.
