Exactly. It's like calling an airplane system "autopilot" but pilots are still involved.
reply> lane/speed maintenance that pretty much all car makers can do now
replyWhat car can I buy in the US today that's as good as the latest fsd?
Literally every non-budget brand (and even some of the budget brands) offers automatic lane keeping with traffic-aware cruise control somewhere in their fleet. It might only be on their flagship vehicles, and possibly only on the top trims, but you're living in a Tesla-decorated cave if you think those are still Tesla-only features.
replyOn a Tesla, it's not even an FSD-specific feature. Autopilot does it.
FSD isn't basic ADAS. You could just say no.
replySo many cars come with lane assist and adaptive cruise control. You can google those terms for yourself. I don't bother with lmgtfy requests. You're a big boy/girl, and teaching you to fish it much better effort. They also don't cost an additional $10k on top of the price of the car. They are just part of the price of the car.
replyMaybe the lmgtfy would be a good exercise for you. Ford's BlueCruise, GM's SuperCruise, Rivian's Autonomy+, and Mercedes-Benz’s Drive Pilot all cost money.
replyIndeed and none of those work outside of (select) highways. Lucid also has DreamDrive, but it's fairly poor from what I've seen. BYD's God's Eye is in the news, and it isn't looking good either.
replyI'd love to see good competition in this space, but it seems Tesla has a healthy moat.
Maybe re-reading what I wrote would help you lmgtfy.
replySo are they part of the price of the car, or are they a subscription?
