No hype from Elon! Just last week the German Courts ruled he must quit advertising "Autopilot" as it is fraudulent to pretend it is an autopilot. Many deaths due to this software. Teslas have been driving into trucks, other cars, cement barricades even a fire truck and two police cars over the last couple of years while on autopilot. Two of those drivers were decapitated.
Just in 2018 Elon told the world that there would be 1 million robo-taxi's on the road by 2020. In fact your car with just a software upgrade will become a robo taxi. That would make a depreciating asset an appreciating asset, your car would automatically become more valuable he said, use it to make money when you don't need it as a taxi.
Experts Call Elon Musk's Level 5 Autonomy Claims Absurd

It's not coming soon, if ever.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has a history of making bold claims that seem far-fetched. His latest? That Tesla was very close to
accomplishing Level 5 autonomy, where vehicles require no human intervention. Needless to say, a few eyebrows were raised within the industry.
Automotive News has spoken to several experts and others with industry knowledge and all have the same conclusion regarding Musk's latest claim: it's nonsense. "None of this is on a plane of reality," said Jason Levine, executive director of the Center for Auto Safety. "It's an absurd idea at this point in time with the technology available and infrastructure available and complete unwillingness of Tesla to acknowledge its mistakes."
