Tesla's "Full Self-Driving" turns out to be full of something, but it ain't self-driving. After years of promises that every car since 2019 was "autonomy-ready," the company now admits that the hardware won't cut it. Elon's self-driving revolution is still waiting at a red light, but the check has already been cashed.

At first, CEO Elon Musk claimed that FSD software updates on newer HW4 cars would lag roughly 6 months behind updates to HW3 cars to make sure to deliver the promised self-driving capability to those who have been waiting and paid for the promised capabiltiy a long time ago.

That strategy barely lasted a few months. Tesla quickly started releasing new FSD updates to HW4 cars first and it now hasn't released a significant update to HW3 cars in close to a year.
