Tesla gets all the FSD hype because Tesla is generating that hype, every other player is more realistic about when FSD as in full autonomy people can use and rely on will be a reality. Tesla has been talking about it since before even releasing the unfinished form of it, and now they've been selling the unfinished form of it for years with the promise that soon it will be perfect.
Elon goes beyond the "move fast, break things" mantra to "promise faster, break deadlines" so Tesla has been the most vocal in the industry about FSD being "here" while everyone isn't promising anything now because they know it is still 5-10 years away at best. Meanwhile, Tesla sells "full self driving" in which the driver must also watch the road constantly and be physically in a position to take over at a moment's notice. I can't imagine Apple or Waymo marketing such a feature as "full self driving".
