We have Tesla’s on the road anyway, so I don’t quite understand how that works.

The feature marketed as “Full Self-Drivinng” is qualified as a beta feature undergoing test and that it requires a human to be in control at all times. It also makes at least some effort to ensure a human actually is paying attention.

You could certainly quibble that maybe it’s not obvious to all, but it is there.

Also I believe the human sensing was much easier to trick until last fall. But if you have to go out of your way to trick it, how can you claim you didn’t know it wanted a human in control?
