So because his predictions were wrong they should just stop and give up?

Its not FSD because its beta of the software that will enable that. That's the point, your training the network.

The hardware does not seem to be the constraint here. CommaAI does a great job on a processor much, much slower. If their prediction is wrong, they put their own money on the line to upgrade the hardware if need be.

I don't think they were lies, Elon usually just says what he believes, often he is right but optimistic, sometimes he is wrong. Clearly he was most wrong about AI but he is right often enough and always speaks his mind.

This is what basically everybody that interacts with Elon says, the guy is candid and says what he believes at that moment. This has been reported by people that worked with him and by people like journalist who have interviewed him (recently just in Liftoff book).

Tesla has to put most of the money made from the FSD sale into a holding account, as they have not delivered the feature.

Generally more generally, I don't think its smart marketing or communication that they are doing.
