No, Tesla is nowhere near self-driving capability. Collecting a bunch of unsupervised data on its own is not that useful.

I just drove from Dallas to southwestern Colorado and back. Of that, I estimate I drove ~15% of the entire miles driven. The rest was the car driving itself.

I just made a meal for an hour. Of that, I estimate I cooked 15 min. The rest was the oven heating itself.

It's not the car driving itself if you need to be constantly attentive and ready to override it.

Does this mean my server doesn't compute things on its own because I have to monitor it?
