What's your definition of self-driving system then if the current one doesn't qualify?
The car being able to get to their destination using the public road network without a single person in it, while fully complying with the law and road safety.
Well, the current version of FSD can do that. It's just not approved for unsupervised driving (level 3) so that's why the driver still needs to be there to be ready to take over at any moment. The current version of it near-perfectly mimics a human driver. I highly recommend to check reviews on YouTube for the version 12. It's quite impressive.
Yes, it can do that. Occasionally. And then it'll randomly fail in the stupidest ways.
And i've actually looked at some Tesla FSD reviews, and every review seems to be of a "2 steps forward, 2 steps back" kind. Look at all these things that improved, and then mentioning all the things that used to work that are now broken again. (of course with a lot more focus on the things that have improved, since hype pays).
I'm honestly wondering how self driving will evolve, it seems we've landed in the really hard last 10% of getting there, and it's mostly come to a stand still.
The one where Tesla is responsible if there is an accident (but this user blocks people critical of Tesla, so probably won't see this message).
