Regarding A, are you sure about that? Autopilot is supposed to be essentially finished by this summer, but it's not even close to full self-driving capabilities. The Model S currently doesn't have the necessary sensor suite for full self-driving, and the software side is still deeply unsolved.

You're correct, my mistake. He said a few years. I misrecalled, so to speak.

Confusion about what autopilot can actually do is pretty widespread, and autopilot is announced for the summer, so it's an understandable mixup.

Even a few years would be pretty cool. I hope he's right!
