The article says "Making a mistake is not a fraud. If Tesla really thought that it could deliver unsupervised self-driving to vehicles equipped with HW3 and, at one point, it figured out that it couldn’t, it’s not fraud even though it used that as a selling point for millions of vehicles for years."
Does that mean I can claim I made a mistake if I do something wrong and get caught?
- JumpCrisscross 2y agoFraud requires mens rea. You can stupid your way into plenty of crimes. But usually not fraud.
- cameldrv 2y agoIt may or may not be fraud but Tesla is still liable for their promises. If they said it would do X and it doesn’t, that’s a defective product and Tesla owes compensation.

A judge recently ruled that it was 'corporate puffery' in a very similar case. https://www.theverge.com/2024/10/1/24259588/tesla-lawsuit-autopilot-dismissed-elon-musk-self-driving https://www.theverge.com/2024/10/1/24259588/tesla-lawsuit-au...
