I enjoy videos on the self driving space and Tesla's technical (not business) approach to it. Its produced results that were actually quite a bit better than I expected at this stage.

I still regularly see videos of Tesla's beta software attempting to pull out into traffic in situations that clearly could have very bad outcomes. I still see so much phantom braking that its a collision risk.

I wouldn't call it dangerous, in the sense that it is done well enough that the person at the wheel should be able to handle it, but it'd crash a lot without an attentive driver.

Its a long way from 99% reliability at this point.
