Buttigieg has made similar comments previously about the use of Tesla Autopilot. Tesla says its advanced driver features are intended for use with a fully attentive driver “who has their hands on the wheel and is prepared to take over at any moment."

Meanwhile, in a long-awaited move, Apple has finally unleashed its game-changing Vision Pro headset in the United States, with global anticipation building for its widespread release in February 2024.
