There's no mixed messaging?

The driver is there just for regulatory purposes, all cars self driving in 2016!, cross country summon in 2017, coast to coast autonomous drive in 2018, Tesla self driving taxis in 2019, FSD making teslas worth 250k$ in 2020! Etc etc

Those are all "coming soon". Tesla and Elon Musk are 100% clear that today, you still need to be an attentive driver while using Autopilot.


All those years are in the past.


But those were never guaranteed dates, just very poor/optimistic predictions


"I'll sell you this box. I know it is empty today, but I assure you, tomorrow it will contain a lump of gold!"

On the next day: "I'll sell you this box. I know it's empty today, but tomorrow..."


They were, Musk always used that phrase "not a question mark".
