GP is referring to Tesla's promise to build electric semi trucks, not the pickup truck that Cybertruck is.

AIUI, Tesla FSD is at best Level 3 automation (probably more like Level 2), which means it requires constant driver supervision to keep the car from committing suicide. That's pretty far from being "basically here", especially since Tesla seems extremely loth to accept any responsibility for FSD-related crashes.

FSD is level 2, because the human driver is required to pay attention and intervene at all times.
