Tesla TSLA CEO Elon Musk responded positively to a social media post when a user’s spouse approved of Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) feature.

Why It Matters: The post comes amid criticism of Tesla’s FSD capabilities. GLJ Research CEO Gordon Johnson, a well-known Tesla skeptic, recently claimed that FSD is a failure, contributing to his prediction of a sales decline for the EV giant.

Tesla has been increasingly confident in its FSD capabilities, touting that equipped vehicles can drive themselves with minimal driver intervention. Tesla recently announced autosteer on city streets as one of FSD’s features after it had been listed as a ‘coming soon’ feature for over four years.
