> The best autonomy I've seen is from other players like GM's Cruise were the car can complete trips without having a driver on hand to intervene... but only in certain controlled areas / conditions. Wouldn't this be the case with Tesla's FSD? I make trips that are fully driven by FSD (I'm using it again this month, but I had a 3 month trial when I bought the car), would you consider routinely successful operation within non-prescribed boundaries a "certain area"? I guess the disconnect between the critics and fans (I am one) is over the marketing; my understanding of "Tesla Full Self Driving" is not level 5 autonomy, it's "can drive better than my teenager most of the time". I (think I) understand the catastrophic downside risk of computer operated machinery in an uncontrolled environment, but my experience has been very positive. I think I understand the feature for what it is, an amazing and useful if imperfect tool, regardless of what it's called. (caveat: FSD is the only automated driving I've experienced)
