This is why i'm skeptical of tesla rushing out autonomous features. i think augmented driving being confused by customers as fully autonomous is extremely dangerous. teslas rush to market and resulting accidents could set back the whole industry.
I also don't understand how tesla can make the leap to fully autonomous vehicles learning/using training data from the semi-autonomous vehicles that are in the customers hands? google has driven 1.5 million miles fully autonomously (with some human oversight) on city streets how many has tesla?
another thought: if tesla does get to fully autonomous vehicles... wouldn't that destroy their sales? its generally agreed upon the demand for car ownership decreases dramatically with self driving vehicles. maybe theyre not afraid to cannibalize themselves akin to apple?
