FSD still has one year, and one upgrade, before it launches as zero intervention driving assist. Distance is only going to increase."
Yeah, when they launch It will be capable of 20 miles. Still useless, because It needs driver's supervision.

" Tesla is not promoting FSD tech as zero intervention. Its called Assisted FSD."
FSD -> Full Self-Driving
If you need to assist It or pay attention then It's not Full Self-driving, but a marketing lie.

"It matters if its better than others, because its a product. Article is a hit piece offering mis information by mincing figures."
There is no problem with this article, but actually with Tesla and Elon Musk lying to It's customers by naming SAE Level 2 as Autopilot or FSD(Full Self-Driving).
Yet according to you the problem is not Tesla or Musk, but this article.

none of the systems are capable of actual thought / reason
these systems often exhibit human symptoms of 'schizo/bipolar'.

would you get a ride from a real human acting that way..

Be objective, instead of being a tech hater.

Without intervention you will crash after 13 miles on Tesla, right?
Should that make me happy, because other cars will crash after let's say 10 miles or so?
If Tesla is promoting Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology then It should be safe during the whole trip, It's clear that It's not and It doesn't matter that It's better than others, you have only one life.

You sound a tiny bit like a Musk's fanboy... In other words, you're not being very objective. The article just informs readers about the results of the independent tests. It's not surprising that Musk want you to believe that the product of his company is better than it really is, is it.

As per their own finding FSD did not require intervention for 13 miles. That surpasses all other driving assists by any manufacturer which do not rely on pre mapped routes. In other words, FSD is way more independent that this piece tries hard for people to believe and its improving at faster pace than any other. Its currently at 12.5.1.4.
