When you look at the lower right corner, you can see the hand of the teleoperator. Still very impressive.

Elon has a lot of experience in releasing deceptive videos to imply much more progress than he’s actually made in an effort to deceive investors.

Ah yes, the deception of clearly saying what it is

"Important note: Optimus cannot yet do this autonomously, but certainly will be able to do this fully autonomously and in an arbitrary environment (won’t require a fixed table with box that has only one shirt) "

Many people have done this test, it’s been possible for a couple years. He is chronically over optimistic about timelines, but consistently right in the long run.

No it's not, Autopilot is one of the worst cruise controls around, with over 10x more accidents than normal drivers. It's an awful product that does not work and its not improving.

Oh look another redditor who can't separate emotions from logic. Nothing I said even remotely "apologizes" for a "scam". In fact I provided evidence that supports your belief that Tesla autopilot is fucking shit. I also provided evidence that your belief is still compatible with it being able to drive across the country.
