They can call it whatever they want, the bottom line is that a human is behind the wheel and ultimately they're responsible.
And I think it has been well established at this point that fsd isn't ready yet, that it's not safe. The fact that they call it "full self driving" is cute... but it's marketing, it's not a get out of jail free card.
Edit: Hah. So many down votes! Well go ahead, down vote personal responsibility! I mean, suggesting maybe people are responsible for the choices they make, fuck me right!
Tesla should be held at least partially responsible for being intentionally misleading in how they named their fancy cruise control.
it’s not even good cruise control

That video is from 2 years ago, if you want to be a naysayer you have to keep up or the tech will march right past you.
actually watch the damn video, tesla has gotten worse not better lol
so everyone else over the last two years getting better just makes the gap worse
well my car has driven 3892 of the last 3975 miles it has travelled, I don't know what to tell you other than it works very well. Neither your hatred for progress nor some youtube grifter's nonsense will convince me to disregard my lived experience.
that’s great but loads of data shows otherwise
that ‘grifter’ owns a tesla and is much more involved with it than most randos so pardon me if i do ‘t care about your opinion
you wanna fanboi go for it but no one cares
please share the data, I can't find any hard data that doesn't suggest it is safer than a human after an earnest effort
Elon will notice you some day.
fuck elon, but i dont have the money to pay another multinational an extra 15k for an EV that can't drive itself
