That's fair.
I didn't intend to give tesla a pass. I hoped that qualifying what i said with a "fuck tesla and fuck elon" would show that.
But i didn't think about it that way.
In my defense my point was more about saying "what did you expect" the car to do in a test designed to show how a system that is not designed to perform a specific function cant perform that specific function.
We know that self driving is bullshit, especially the tesla brand of it. So what is Mark's test and video really doing?
But on reflection, i guess there are still a lot of people out there that dont know this stuff, so at the very least, a popular channel like his will go a longway to raising awareness of this sort of flaw.
