- mgh2 1y agoTo be fair, it was “staged”, not completely fake; but yes, the false advertising killed many
- rsynnott 1y agoThat's really stretching the definition of 'staged', tbh. > Just want to be absolutely clear that everyone’s top priority is achieving an amazing Autopilot demo drive. Since this is a demo, it is fine to hardcode some of it, since we will backfill with production code later in an OTA update. I will be telling the world that this is what the car will be able to do, not that it can do this upon receipt You could maybe call it staged if they were, say, very selective about the conditions and course, but within those constraints it was actually doing what they said it did. That doesn't seem to have been the case.
