> Full Self-Driving Hardware on All Cars
> All Tesla vehicles produced in our factory, including Model 3, have the hardware needed for full self-driving capability at a safety level substantially greater than that of a human driver.
Whatever theory you have for Tesla's naming of their feature, it doesn't match with their marketing.
The page's title is "Autopilot | Tesla". It is the first result for "tesla autopilot" in search results. And "autopilot" appears 9 times on the page. So if that's not an intentional attempt to mislead consumers into conflating Autopilot with "full self-driving", then what would such an attempt look like, hypothetically?
That is damn crazy. You should consider your users to be complete idiots when improper use of the thing can endanger lives.
Why are we even debating this?
For this standard it would have to apply to every driver. Should drivers who do not google "Tesla autopilot", let alone ones that do and read on in a section about said autopilot feature, be punished with death in a two ton metal trap?
It doesn’t; what it does say is perfectly clear to me.
It remains an answer to "what would such an attempt [to intentionally mislead consumers] look like, hypothetically?"
This is actually harder to do then just driving the car.
