Its also worth pointing out what feature set you get with "Autopilot" and even how well those features operate varies a lot depending what country you are in. In the USA, it's gone quite a bit beyond just cruise control on steroids, and will now follow _any_ road no matter how curvy so long as there is a painted center line. In other words, you can turn it on outside schools, in complex urban neighborhoods etc and it will just keep following the road until you disable it or the painted line stops.
In many European countries, the system is restricted to a much more traditional lane assist and does not follow tight bends like this. I have a Model 3 with the standard fit "Autopilot" (not FSD) in US and have tried same model in the UK.
If you follow Bjorn Nyland on YouTube (popular electric car YouTuber), he also recently discovered how much more advanced "Autopilot" is on the American cars when he drove a US import in Thailand and compared to his previous Norwegian Tesla, despite feature being labelled the same.
This all makes having any kind of reasonable discussion on the internet about it really, really hard.
To complicate matters further, conventional Traffic Aware Cruise is technically the third driver assist mode Tesla offer in their cars in addition to "AP"/"FSD", this of course also works without the painted line.
