They might be using it how Tesla markets it.
So I assume autopilot disconnects as soon as you take your hands off the wheel, or there’s iris tracking to ensure you’re looking at the road? It’s not like either of these is exotic technology.

No, it does not.
Tesla's official channel from 5 years ago says otherwise. Its nice of them to put up incriminating material that a layman can find in 5 seconds.

Edit: Tesla's own website still advertises Full Self Driving as an enhancement of autopilot.
Good luck not getting killed then..
