No, but I could use supervised FSD today if I wanted ...

Musk has invented his own oxymoron --- "supervised Full Self Driving" --- which means not really full self driving at all.

Your car is ready to be a robotaxi --- as long as you are behind the wheel to supervise it.

If a driver is required, it's not a robotaxi is it?

It drives itself with zero control input from me, hands literally off the wheel and feet off the pedals. That's the definition of "full self driving".

It's bizarre how people are so adamant about this when they haven't even tried it. Every passenger I've shown this to have had their minds blown.

So sit in the back seat and let the car drive and my mind will be blown --- if you don't get arrested either before or after the crash.

Waymo actually does this today. Musk has plans to do this --- someday. It's mind blowing that you can't see the difference.
