IMO an example of self driving that is a scam is relevant to whether the concept as a whole may be a scam too.

Of course a counter example would be just as relevant since it could prove the concept isn't entirely a scam.

The example wasn't even that of a self-driving car related scam, but a scam found in the automated blood testing industry.

I raise Tesla as an example of a scam similar to Thermos in that it's crossed from naivete to fraud. And considering the stuttering progress of self driving by Uber and even Waymo (in adverse conditions) it may well be self driving as a concept is premature. So attempts to market and sell it as is (beta or not) are fraud.
