Sure. My Honda Accord’s cruise control is totally the same as the defective on arrival robot taxi.

I have heard of at least one case where someone thought that cruise control could operate as an un-supervised 'autopilot' and nearly died; I believe their (almost new) RV went off some sort of cliff.

There's a difference between someone not understanding the functionality of their car, and the CEO openly deceiving the public about the functionality of their car.

If this RV manufacturer's CEO said that the cruise control was FSD, yes then one can understand the user's confusion.

Do you mean to say it’s confusing to say “of course silly, the feature is called “Full Self Driving”, but the vehicle does not fully drive itself, your are in control!”
