Idiots have always had a great capacity to find new ways to abuse Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving (FSD) Beta. Their latest innovation is using the new Apple Vision Pro headset. Both Tesla’s Autopilot and FSD Beta systems are some of the most misunderstood products in the world, and that’s partly Tesla’s fault. When you decide to sell a product called “Full Self-Driving” before you can actually deliver it, you are certainly not playing it safe. Under their current forms, those products…

Somewhere, a corner of Great Britain is still mentally fighting the second world war. Nothing else explains how this kind of wanly acted, flyboys-sock-it-to-the-Boche autopilot outing could attract funding in the 2020s. It has the full deck of cliches: the missus back in Blighty popping up in flashback to pep up the beleaguered hero, fortuitously positioned breast-pocket contents foiling death, and ailing squaddies staying behind with their finger on the trigger: “Go! Somebody needs to stay here to make sure this place…
