    Piss off, In 2016 Elon Musk promised full self driving would be ready by the end of 2017.

      I cringe when I remember that I parroted the then current expectations on self driving back then.

        I believed him too back then, usually if a CEO makes such a statement it’s pretty solid. Because they are responsible to for instance stock holders.
        How he can make all these false claims and promises, and still be rewarded by stock holder with a $55billion bonus, is a mystery to me, as I see it, he is liable towards both stock holders, and customers who bought stock or a Tesla under false pretenses.
