I will bite - Tesla has been selling, for the past 10 years, cars that were supposedly becoming Fully Self Driving 'before the end of the year' for the past 10 years straight.
Let's say somebody bought it 5 years ago, then sold his car last year. From his perspective - was it vaporwave or not ?
Some day, it will work of course. There are other companies operating robotaxi on scale for quite a long time already. It's just not that day yet, not for Tesla at least.
- kristofferR 1y agoSure, but I'm talking about the tech, not the buyers who got screwed. Saying that FSD is vaporware because it is not available for a lot of Tesla owners is like saying that Waymo is vaporware because it is only launched in certain cities.
- anonzzzies 1y agoPerspective right, the definition: > software or hardware that has been advertised but is not yet available to buy, for me, if I would've bought a Tesla, it would be vapourware for sure: Elon advertised it every chance he got and gets (this summer we will have it!), people bought it because of that and it's not there: that's vapourware.
- Dylan16807 1y agoThe feature currently called "full self driving" is just a preview and prototype. The real thing, the broken promise, is level 4 or 5 and it's not available to anyone. They're not even at level 3.
