Not actually autonomous until it can be more or less trusted to handle itself, without constant human supervision. Until then, it's just prototype or testing miles.
Tesla's current robotaxi deployment is also geofenced and monitored by humans -- moreso than Waymo, even -- but of course Tesla superfans always conveniently leave that out of the narrative.
- Rover222 8mo agoI don't think you understand that the level of autonomy that anyone with FSD currently has. It drives itself for hours with 0 interventions. Someone did a coast-to-coast drive with no interventions. Yet yeah somehow I'm just a confused fan and you're not biased by politics? They will turn of the supervision requirements soon, and suddenly there will be hundreds of thousands of teslas that can drive themselves. The skepticism is hard to get.
- TulliusCicero 8mo ago> Yet yeah somehow I'm just a confused fan and you're not biased by politics? Yes, because you're confusing "can generally make the decisions necessary to drive by itself" with "can be trusted to drive by itself with a non-attentive human occupant". > They will turn of the supervision requirements soon Oh, totally; this year, right? The complete lack of self awareness is absolutely astounding.
- Rover222 8mo agoYeah it’ll happen this year. Please mark my words. Waymos get stuck in weird situations every day. They need intervention, even on their guardrails. FSD is of course not perfect, but yes they have obviously cracked the code (it’s obvious if you use it or get beyond the groupthink here), and are being cautious with turning off supervision requirements. As they should.
