The problem is he's been saying that every year for years. Every year he claims FSD is coming out next year. Anyone who has used autopilot knows it's nowhere close to being level 5.

Don't get me wrong, the tech is impressive. On my Corolla with $1k comma ai device (basically a smartphone) I can go on I95 for like an hour without having to intervene. While I have not used autopilot for as long, it seems about the same. HOWEVER... that is in ideal conditions. For example I NEVER use it when driving I95 south getting to Miami. The road is horrible, people are bat shit crazy and I would have a heart attack watching either of these systems try to drive that and I'm sure that's nothing compared to NY City traffic.
