Initially posted on Instagram by a user that calls himself "CTJesu55," the [unsettling FSD clip]() has since [made its way]() to [other social networks]() as folks watch on in awe and fury as the postercontrols a virtual Cybertruck in GTA — a franchise, in a meta twist, that's largely centered around the satirical celebration of reckless driving — while ignoring the real one he's supposed to be monitoring. https://www.twitter.com/TeslaCamera/status/1925532116260995367 So egregious was this FSD display that even some Tesla stans were upset by the antics of the poster, whose real first name is apparently Adeel. "This is the kind of crap that will ruin it for everyone... Company, shareholders, other Tesla FSD users, everyone," [one X user wrote]() in reply to the video, which was posted by the TeslaDashCams account. "Please be a responsible driver." "Stick to air guitar, please," [another implored](). Others still wondered how the self-styled "Cybertruck Jesus" managed to get away with holding a PlayStation controller while in FSD — a feat that should, [per the rules]() for the [misleadingly-named feature](), garner a loud warning from Tesla's operating system. (It seems, per online consensus and the fact that the sensor is blacked out by a big circle in the CTJesu55 video, that he used some sort of device to block Tesla's eye-sensing cameras that can detect when drivers aren't paying attention to the road. Another user noted that they [block theirs with a condom]().) "Meanwhile," [one X user joked](), "my FSD screams at me if I try to change the radio station." Elsewhere, the comments were overwhelmingly derisive. "This is literally what GTA would make a satire about," [wrote one user]() on the video game's subreddit. The most stinging burn, however, might go to blogger Cooper Lund. "I don’t think it’s a particularly hot take," [Lund lamented on Bluesky](), "to say the person who posted a timelapse of themself playing GTA V on the interstate in their Cybertruck should be in prison." The future, apparently, is here — and it's way, way dumber than we ever expected. **More on Cybertrucks tricks:** [*Cybertruck Guy Makes Mocha Frappuccino While Cruising on Self-Driving Mode*]() ## Author At Futurism, I've often been drawn to unpacking the narratives that underlie technological, scientific and medical progress, with a special interest in areas of conflict and ambiguity that end up setting agendas and steering the fates of both elites and the hoi polloi. I'm a committed generalist, but I often find myself returning to work involving NASA and the private space sector, the effects of AI on media and society, and the mechanics of the pharmaceutical industry, with a specific focus on the spread of GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy. Prior to Futurism, I worked for publications ranging from Media Matters and Truthdig to Raw Story and Bustle. I'm also the author of "Myspace Scene Queens," a 2024 title in Instar Books' acclaimed "Remember the Internet" series. My work at Futurism has been cited by outlets including the New Yorker, Slate, Nieman Lab, the Verge, the MIT Technology Review, the Sunday Times, and the Daily Beast. I grew up in North Carolina, attended the University of North Carolina at Asheville, and now live in Brooklyn, New York. In my free time, I'm an avid reader and music fan; you can probably find me at a local poetry reading, concert, underground rave, or DJ set. I'm the proud parent of an ineffable orange cat named Mee-Mow. ### Author social links [Bluesky]()
