Charlatan in 2016: Teslas built right now has all the hardware required for FSD Charlatan in 2019: The previous version by nVidia was such garbage (processing 1.5 fps, really?). Teslas built right now has all the hardware required for FSD.

Tesla isn't there because charlatan can't produce reports that would look good on Tesla. If it were he would be tweeting about it. If a California based company can't employ 4 dudes driving around California to provide this r
