The future is now. Robotaxi Launches

[Deuce]

LOL, one of the influencers Tesla hired to hype their failed product got called by Tesla mid-ride and told to abandon the vehicle.

Rain was coming and the vehicle would be unsafe.

With Elon Musk stepping back from political distractions and recommitting to his role as a wartime CEO, this moment feels like a day of reckoning for Tesla, a chance to deliver on a decade-long promise and ignite a new era of growth.

The Austin pilot, with its $4.20 flat-fee rides, is a significant success: providing safe, reliable rides with minimal teleoperation, which validates Tesla’s technology. Tesla’s FSD relies on AI-driven vision, which can operate anywhere, untethered by pre-mapped zones.

Civilization upgrade-mode activated!

But it didn’t launch. There were so many caveats. Musk is a con man. Complete fraud.

His stock went down 3% today.

I don't think anyone is impressed.

I have been in a Waymo and own a Tesla. You?

Has your Tesla exploded or are you a poser?

Musk's insistence on using only cameras for situational awareness means that the Tesla self-driving technology will always be inferior. Hampered visibility will always be a problem, and other sensor technologies can mitigate some of that problem. Musk is trying for cheap, and it's going to cost him.
