No surprise Tesla stock dropped after the reveal.



People are slowly realising the snake oil salesman business plan of false promises so investors can pump and dump isn’t going to last forever.



But hey he said the streets will be crawling with these robotaxis by 2030. Pretty sure his original promise was 2017 or 2019 from memory? Definitely pre 2020. So now it’s 2030. Anyway I can’t wait to see a watered down version of this going live in 2045. If the company still exists that is.Chinese EVs seem like a better investment these days.
Whilst I love the Auto Pilot on our cars, there is a huge chasm to cross to Full Self Driving. I'm more than happy where things are now with the driver aids. Of course they could be better but they keep improving which is great.

I'm don't understand the use case for robo cabs, etc. I'll take a bus, train, plane or actual cab if I really need. Robo taxi isn't in the people best interest though they can be safer (but a long way to go there).

Never trust Elon timelines. He's a hype man. And a very good one to certain people. He's like Henry Ford... Gotta be crazy to do something different.
