Comment on Tesla must face fraud suit for claiming its cars could fully drive themselves
Buffalox@lemmy.world 7 months agoIn theory is not the same as actually being able to do it, which was what he clearly claimed saying: And we can do that NOW.

Its only not possible on consumer models because of restrictions put in place by tesla.
As evidenced by Elon mode
A tesla can drive its self, but it doesnt because of regulatory/safety/liability reasons

No it was not, we have testimony from employees that FSD wasn’t even close to what Musk claimed. And it can’t even do it today.
Just because you can flip a switch that says FSD doesn’t mean it works.

Again, we’re arguing about the definition of “working” which was my original point.
Can it self drive? yes
Should it? no

That argument is stupid. My robot lawn mower “can drive itself” but it can’t follow traffic rules and would crash after a while if set to drive on its own in a road. Just as a Tesla. What Musk was implying was “it can drive itself without violating traffic rules and causing crashes” and clearly it can’t.

That’s like saying a car with cruise control can self drive.
The Tesla cannot self drive by any reasonable meaning of the term.

Are you debating just to debate, or do you just fail to see the obvious issue?
