Original Note:
Neither Musk nor Tesla claimed they had “Full Self-Driving” in 2016 that was safer than a human driver. The proof-of-concept demo video was not faked, though it used an approach heavily reliant on detailed maps. It was presented as something “some way off in the future”. https://www.slashgear.com/tesla-enhanced-autopilot-what-8-1-is-and-isnt-and-2016-will-bring-22468524/#:~:text=Still%2C%20that%20full%20self%2Ddriving%20is%20some%20way%20off%20in%20the%20future https://brandonpaddock.substack.com/p/a-brief-history-of-teslas-full-self#:~:text=In-,2016,-%2C%20Tesla%20ditched%20MobilEye
