    Sure, but if they say you have to be in control at all times to pass blame then they need to call it driver assist or something other than “full self driving”.

      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!

      Okay, so the name sucks, but if my kid breaks her laptop, I still gotta pay it. I didn’t break it. The kid broke it. But it’s still my responsibility.

      I don’t have a kid. If I did, I’d hope I had a kid who wouldn’t break nice things. But, let’s be real. Kids and cats break nice things. I also don’t have a Tesla. But if you own something (or you have a pet or a child) you are still responsible for what they do.

      It’s going to be interesting if we ever get those cars that go out on our behalf and do ride sharing gigs while we’re at work, earning back the money they spend keeping themselves charged. I wanna say one of the EV makers floated that idea. It never happened. But if it did, while you’re at work your car does damage. Who are they going to blame? Maybe you have insurance that covers it. But you’d still be responsible.

        This argument is just bonkers. Are you conflating a child and a corporations claim for a car to be fully self driving? These aren’t even comparable things.

          You may want to familiarize yourself with marketing, before you indict half the economy.

          But the name is “Fill Self Driving (Supervised)”. See, no fraud, just a balance of marketing and legaleze, lying and technicalities

          Full self driving*

          *Not full self driving at all

          Seems fair and not confusing at all right?

          100% real gold that has the same value of real gold and is priced as such*

          *fake gold that is just spray painted dog shit

            yeah its rediculous to think someone would think something about something when its name is just a phrase that would suggest that.
