> A Tesla spokeswoman said on Wednesday the company had never described Autopilot as an autonomous technology or self-driving car.

Other than the name itself.

What does "put it on autopilot" mean to most people?

Looks to me as though everyone involved has been at least too optimistic. And MobileEye should not call it Autopilot if it cannot act like one.
