Which is why the name Autopilot is (very dangerous) false advertising.
Also lets not forget the "your Tesla will be an autonomous Robotaxi" Bullshit.
Autopilot is not full self driving. FSD is an additional $15k option on top of autopilot. The article posted here was for an accident in 2019 before FSD was available to anyone. My tesla fully self-drives itself every single day regardless of what you might think.

Its false advertisement or at least a poor naming choice. Should have called it "Megadrive Exo Giga Assistent" or something.
