Tesla is hands-off since a week ago (provided you are sunglass free and watching road).

It is really difficult to read if this is sarcasm or not, and I am not being sarcastic.

Tesla's most recent version of FSD (which is released to a limited number of non-employee testers so far) uses only eye tracking for driver monitoring and does not require the user to touch the steering wheel as long as they are looking forward.

Right, I was confused. "Hands-off" intially sounded like it was trustworthy to drive itself.

But in this case it means the car now trusts you to trust it by not putting your hands on the wheel?

Ah, so it is just another word for negligence? Is that a feature people are championing?
