Rober's video was apparently not true
I haven't watched the Rober video, "Can you fool a self driving car" or whatever the title is. Nor the other videos referenced below. But I have talked to others who have, this is what I got from them. Don't know how accurate that is either.

Rober said or implied the he was testing Tesla self-driving. However, his Model Y did not have FSD so he was not actually testing "Self driving." His car does have autopilot which is old technology and is not "self driving."

When Rober went thru the "Brick wall" highway mural with the Model 3, the video showed the autopilot on but then off when he actually drove thru the wall. Rober apparently used multiple takes and edited them together.

There is a video made by someone else showing that the Model Y autopilot was not on.

Yet another video by someone else interviewed Rober and found that he apparently does not really understand the difference between FSD and autopilot. He said he did use several takes and edits. Vague when questioned about various things. Kept saying he had "No horse in the race" so what the video showed is what it is and not his fault. Which appears to be untrue.

There was a lot more but I don't have time to spell it all out. Not that interested in it anyway.
