I find it funny to think back to the fervor of comments on HN a year ago about Tesla doubling down on vision only and how this would prove to be dangerous and ineffective. A year has gone by and not only have we not seen the catastrophe that was thought to be inevitable, but Autopilot has gotten leaps and bounds better. I use it every day and over the past few months it's gotten so good that there are few scenarios where I ever intervene, and when I do, it's because it's always because it's being a little too slow/hesitant for me at an intersection. I'm not a Musk fan one bit, but I see this as evidence that the popular narrative has diverged wildly from the reality of Tesla's product.
