Tesla focused on FSD almost exclusively and everything in the car's software suffered because of that and stupid decisions to remove hardware. Autopilot is on a separate branch from FSD, not getting significant updates with the promise that at some point, it'll be merged with the FSD branch and it'll be super awesome - this year for sure, but maybe next year or 10 years after, look we made a robot that's definitely not a guy in a suit and it'll be out in 5 years, maybe 10, it can water plants now!, look a Cybertruck! isn't steel cool, etc When they switched from Mobileye to their own stack, it noticeably regressed in performance, then they worked to get it to work decently, but dropped the radar during Covid, going all in on Vision, regressing it even further. They promised at that time to at some point match the original Autopilot by reintroducing a distance of 1 and a max speed higher than 140 km/h and it's been 2 years since then with nothing on the front. Summon/ Smart summon as the guy in the article points out - is great, but doesn't work without USS sensors, which they removed and the functionality is coming back some day, but likely not soon, because it's not a priority. They've been selling cars for more than a year now that don't have that functionality, even though it's in a package worth 4000 euros that gets you basically nothing. Autopark - same thing, just look at these videos as a comparison - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsb2XBAIWyA&pp=ygUTcnN5bW1vbnMgdGVzbGEgcGFyaw%3D%3D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsb2XBAIWyA&pp=ygUTcnN5bW1vb... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfM8pZS7PFU&t=190s&pp=ygUTcnN5bW1vbnMgdGVzbGEgcGFyaw%3D%3D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfM8pZS7PFU&t=190s&pp=ygUTcn... It's easily the worst out of all manufacturers. In the meantime FSD V11 will be the big one, V12 will finally drop the beta tag, etc, etc things that never happen and the rest of the functionalities just rot away.

I can't believe how much relentless online bitching there is about the sensors. You won't find anything approaching FSD in any other vehicle you could buy. Autopilot remains the most reliable autosteer product on the market. Smart summon sucks, so what - you won't find it on other cars and it might improve in a huge way with OTA. Unlike other cars. Autopark sucks big time. It might improve. It might not. Clearly, given the sales, online commentators care way more than actual consumers lol.
