I agree, but this is probably the worst behavior I've seen of the FSD software.
It abruptly tried to do a right turn on a no-right intersection with no warning (map said it was supposed to go straight, it looked like it was going to do that right up to the last second).
Putting aside the "almost hitting a pedestrian", this is really dangerous behavior for an autonomous vehicle.
It's not like the car is going rogue and just randomly making a right turn. It's trying to find the right side of the road in a rare intersection. A monorail in the middle of a city street is quite rare so this is an understandable failure-mode.
Look at the screen. It is going rogue, the line on the screen shows where the car is supposed to go, it abruptly decided it was going to take a right turn.
I look at current driver assistance systems as human-robot hybrid. Any driver assistance system should be required to be clear in it's intentions to the driver and give time to react, otherwise it's like a wild horse.
I don't know where you get the idea. Even plane autopilot will not land the plane w/o Pilot's supervision.
People who don't read manuals put themselves at risk.
Even simple systems like Cruise Control carry plenty of warnings that one should be familiar with when operating (from Ford's manual):
WARNING: Always pay close attention to changing road conditions when using adaptive cruise control. The system does not replace attentive driving. Failing to pay attention to the road may result in a crash, serious injury or death.
WARNING: Adaptive cruise control may not detect stationary or slow moving vehicles below 6 mph (10 km/h).
WARNING: Do not use adaptive cruise control on winding roads, in heavy traffic or when the road surface is slippery. This could result in loss of vehicle control, serious injury or death.
[and few more, shortened for brevity]
I don't think so. Most people are aware that autopilot exists for airplanes, and they are also aware that there are always human pilots on board the plane.
It doesn't really matter what you think. Studies have shown that a significant number of people believe that ADAS branded as "Autopilot" means that the driver does not need to pay attention.
I'm also not sure where you get that idea, it's clear when purchasing that Autopilot is a fancy cruise control to assist drivers and that full attention is required at all times.
