Serious question: Wasn't it obvious?
There was some hate babbling when that robot taxi company in SanFran published that their autonomous cars were assisted by remote drivers who took over when situations were too complex for the robots.
I think remote support and steering will be the most reliable and practical way those tasks will be handled for the foreseeable future. How much assistance the cars will need may diminish but I don't think they will ever be able to work without any human assistance.
Sure they will, just put then on rails, make them bigger and available to the public, call it Public AI transport or something

Some of it was and some of it wasn't. I think when they initially came out walking, that was probably autonomous. The dancing was autonomous. The only time we saw evidence that they weren't autonomous was at the end when they were interacting with people at the event.
Problem is, we don't know. We know some of it was. Tesla did not state that any of it was remote controlled, which means we basically have to assume that all of it was.
