My boss used to stick an orange in his Tesla steering wheel to trick the car to just keep driving when he was on his phone.

“But it’s seeming infallibility”

Have these people ever used a piece of technology in their lives. Who in their wildest dreams sees ANYTHING as infallible. Nothing else of value to come from someone who starts under that kind of stupidity.

Nothing is perfect, but then don't market the tech as full self-driving. Especially if the failure can kill you if not intervened.

don’t market the tech as full self-driving

Recently, Tesla have been a bit more careful to market it as "Full Self Driving (Supervised)", though the naming still (understandably) causes a lot of confusion among the general public and media.

Yeah, they should've just marketed it as the old "Tesla Autopilot" till it's ready. I'm interested to see how they'd launch a robotaxi service with their current tech.
