    Autopilot is a more basic driver assist system than FSD. FSD is what will eventually become what the name suggests but it’s obviously not there yet and everyone knows this. It’s just the name of the system.

      FSD is just a lie because its a description of a product they intend to develop not something that exists on the car you are buying now

        What’s your definition of self-driving system then if the current one doesn’t qualify?

          The one where Tesla is responsible if there is an accident (but this user blocks people critical of Tesla, so probably won’t see this message).

      Specifically Auto Pilot is lane keep and traffic aware cruise control (it will slow down if you’re going faster than the car in front) FSD adds auto lane changes (it can do it by itself or the driver can initiate with the turn signals), makes turns necessary to follow navigation. It does a pretty decent job on freeways.

      That they are working on now is getting FSD to work better on city streets and secondary highways
