Everyone and their children seems a bit hyperbolic. There hasn’t been an accident involving FSD beta 9, but I’m sure someone has been killed at the hands of a drunk driver today. I am failing to find any comments from you arguing for alcohol to be removed from shelves across the country? Why aren’t you pushing your regulators for that?

Drunk driving is already illegal. Claiming that we should ban all alcohol because people use it to commit illegal acts makes about as much sense as claiming we should ban kitchen knives because people occasionally use them for stabbing.
Besides that, FSD being less dangerous than drunk driving is a terrible benchmark.

It's not hard to see the connection between FSD driving towards concrete pillars and the AP accidents on highways driving towards concrete barriers. None of this is hyperbole. FSD isn't a whole new system, it's based on AP. As Elon often says, they have been going for incremental improvements rather than the all-or-nothing approach taken by Waymo and others.
