> can you drive it to work and send it home by itself? And then ask it to come and get you?

No. The Tesla webpage and in-car guidance are clear on what you can expect from this feature and how the driver is expected to be paying attention. The car will also sense when you are not paying attention and take measures accordingly.

It’s interesting that you focused on so called “idiots” for having an issue with misleading branding and not the actual idiots who came up with that name

They continue to not buy a product from a fraudster. Not much changes, I propose. They buy a BYD or other quality non Tesla EV (Tesla sells ~2M EVs/year, China can build ~50M/year in aggregate, as of this comment). Those who still want Teslas buy them.

Tesla has become a vanity project operated by an emotionally unhealthy, power seeking narcissist who will chase attention and validation for the foreseeable future. It is not a critical component to global electrification. China will do all the heavy lifting (as of this comment, ~60% of Chinese auto sales are electric, and ~29% globally for 2026). Buy from Tesla, don’t buy from Tesla, doesn’t matter.

As my kids say, “You don’t buy from people who lie to you.”
