Admission 

Elon Musk in a tweet has admitted that autopilot driving isn't ready for the world even though it is built into Teslas.  His statement, needlessly complex, places blame on highway and road constructors, but as the article points out, autopilot needs to adapt to the world that is and not the world Musk wants.  The admission is a PR blow to his technology and one wonders why he continues to include it in his vehicles, since it is so dangerous. He should have been as cautious as Waymo, which has spent more than a decade hammering down driving glitches one by one.  He wasn't and people have died while using his system.  The reputation for AutoPilot has suffered greatly and Musk is to blame with his not-ready-for-prime-time technology.
