Exactly.

I think a lot of "people" online are paid shills.

HN should severely downrank any "opinion" posts from anon accounts.

I have a Tesla with FSD and it's incredible. Though it drives way worse than me, it drives pretty darn good, and will save a ton of lives and change the world by freeing up a lot of time for people to do more important things.

Is your post supposed to be read as genuine or sarcastic? It looks to me like a strawman of a Tesla owner stereotype, and I don’t want to accidentally eat the onion here by taking it at face value.

Your post appears to be saying that Tesla’s FSD is way worse than human drivers, not safer than them, but we should still welcome it for the convenience. Again, this reads like a strawman. I would like to think the average Tesla owner would not endorse that statement.

The goal isn’t to save time at the cost of lives, it’s to save both, non?

> is way worse than human drivers

No, I said it's way worse than me. Probably around performance of the average human driver.

I am training to be an astronaut, so on the advanced side.

A lot of people say they’re significantly better than average driver. It’s such a stereotypical thing to say, that it probably has negative truth value on average, since it reflects broad personal confidence more than actual driving skill.

You still sound like you’re trying to present the weakest possible straw man for Tesla critics to attack. Stop this bad faith attempt to make Tesla look bad; you’re dragging down the discourse. Nobody is going to take your bait and feed you the expected counter arguments to the nonsense you expressed up-thread.
