Tesla is producing advertisement videos (already in 2016) that said "our cars drive themselves, you don't need a driver". What you said is worthless when Tesla itself is marketing their cars like that.

Please link that. I’d like to see it.

this is the advertisement: https://www.tesla.com/videos/full-self-driving-hardware-all-tesla-cars

It literally says: "The person in the drivers seat is only there for legal reasons. He is not doing anything. The car is driving itself."

And the best part is that the video was faked.

Cool ty. FSD is still beta for now. Maybe when it’s final. Fingers crossed.
