Tesla hacker reveals what driver-facing camera is looking for

I agree, but I interpret the argument as such: Tesla, by using language like "your hands are only there for regulatory reasons" makes no effort to dispel the myth to the driver that the car autopilot can exceed all human drivers in every situation. It aught to be on Tesla's head to instruct the driver that they are the safety net to the computer.

To use the aeroplane analogy that Tesla wants to market: the computer is the first officer in charge of flying the plane, the driver is the captain in charge of everything else.

Yea, the Tesla marketing team has gone a bit overboard and some people are taking their spiel as gospel.

On the other hand, event the new VW ID.3 can drive on regular roads, manage roundabouts and adjust speed according to speed signs, they're just not making a huge fuss about it.

Do you have a source for that quote? I searched elon's tweets and Google but couldn't find anything.
