I think we will be feature-complete full self-driving this year, meaning the car will be able to find you in a parking lot, pick you up, take you all the way to your destination without an intervention, this year. I would say that I am certain of that. That is not a question mark.

The approach JMM tracks
Each snapshot anchors the described approach to its primary source, without turning it into a recommendation.
