Autopilot is not full self driving. FSD is an additional $15k option on top of autopilot. The article posted here was for an accident in 2019 before FSD was available to anyone. My tesla fully self-drives itself every single day regardless of what you might think.

Its false advertisement or at least a poor naming choice. Should have called it "Megadrive Exo Giga Assistent" or something.
