They can call it whatever they want, the bottom line is that a human is behind the wheel and ultimately they're responsible.

And I think it has been well established at this point that fsd isn't ready yet, that it's not safe. The fact that they call it "full self driving" is cute... but it's marketing, it's not a get out of jail free card.

Edit: Hah. So many down votes! Well go ahead, down vote personal responsibility! I mean, suggesting maybe people are responsible for the choices they make, fuck me right!

Okay, so the name sucks, but if my kid breaks her laptop, I still gotta pay it. I didn't break it. The kid broke it. But it's still my responsibility.

I don't have a kid. If I did, I'd hope I had a kid who wouldn't break nice things. But, let's be real. Kids and cats break nice things. I also don't have a Tesla. But if you own something (or you have a pet or a child) you are still responsible for what they do.

It's going to be interesting if we ever get those cars that go out on our behalf and do ride sharing gigs while we're at work, earning back the money they spend keeping themselves charged. I wanna say one of the EV makers floated that idea. It never happened. But if it did, while you're at work your car does damage. Who are they going to blame? Maybe you have insurance that covers it. But you'd still be responsible.
