You are not. There is no car that has FSD. If you are relying on teslas autopilot thinking it is fsd you are just playing with your and everyone else's life on the road. Especially in an urban traffic situation like NYC.
I once heard a comedian say 'show me the bodies' in response to the safety of nuclear energy. I just love the pragmatic and blunt way of looking at a perceived threat.
Maybe it wasn't clear, but 'show me the bodies' implies the onus to demonstrate mass fatalities, not dozens after billions of Autopilot miles. The bodies just don't exist.
To be clear, I don't think either of us are right or wrong. We have different risk profiles. Telsa reports one crash per 7.5M miles of Autopilot (and again, most of these recorded incidents have operator errors, but I'm happy to keep them in the count). That is absolutely within a threshold I would accept for this level of advancement in technology and safety.
Almost never. The biggest issue is how conservative it is when accelerating after a stop sign or red light. I'm prone to get honked at if I don't press the gas manually. NYC (like most major US cities) treat stop signs as yield signs, so I'll manually roll through those. But I've never had to intervene because it was going to hit something or drive me the wrong direction.
