$99 per month?! For some half baked software? I need a car, not a parasite.

At this point, Tesla's FSD is almost certainly more "baked" than the vast majority of software you've ever used. The amount of engineering and compute time that have gone into it are colossal.

That said, something being excessively baked does not mean it is good.

Thats an irrelevant argument (and unless you work there directly on this just empty baseless words).

The point is - it didnt deliver, and still doesnt. Its a securities fraud out in the open, but clearly from a guy who is above the threshold of applicable law

One thing I wonder is, if BYD was allowed to compete in the western markets, would the scale of deployment yield better data and thus a better FSD experience?

BYD are competing in every market except the US and Canada. People seem to like them well enough

You can buy it outright if you prefer. Or you can just not buy it at all.

The latter option being the one that is the best possible one.
