    Tesla’s Autopilot is driving assistance. I don’t know where you saw Musk marketing it as a self driving feature. Hell, even for the misnomer “full self driving” they note:

    The currently enabled features require a fully attentive driver, who has their hands on the wheel and is prepared to take over at any moment.
