Waymo is currently having people pay for an AV rideshare service that can drive you around, and where the clients don't sit in the drivers seat. Whereas Tesla is apparently out here shipping a vehicle that (according to reddit anyway)[1] has hardcoded "do not brake here" zones on the map and almost crashes as a result.
Tesla's vehicles can't reliably drive on a freeway, much less on surface streets. Sure you can buy something, but its not an autonomous vehicle. Because as you rightly point out, you're still the one driving.
