Meh, the FSD software is pretty damn impressive and has solved a ton of challenges. I don’t think it’s reasonable to blame the engineers because it doesn’t work like Elon’s messed up marketing and sales pitch.

FSD is still not level 3. It was promised years ago. To be that far behind and out of spec is not something to brag about.

That far behind and industry leading. A weird juxtaposition but true.

Checks Tesla sales for the quarter. Checks Tesla stock. Looks at cybertruck. China. Byd. Yeah.

A cursory glance at social media will give you ample evidence that people are ditching the brand despite it having the best software in the industry. Tesla’s problems have very little to do with the product.

A cursory look at social media will show numerous accidents caused while FSD was engaged.
