FSD working better for youtubers in OK!

For they are the aristocrats of our time. The rest, mere peasants and shareholders can drive themselves,and buy the stock. And be happy those prolific video makers, and musk driving up the stock price with perpetual FSD excitement.

The reality is that Waymo and Cruise use huumans in the loop, to make those businesses run, no one has magic AI - and musk will have to do the same when he launches the robotic taxi service (24/7 huumans remotely overseeing/troubleshooting the fleet).

If it works out, Tesla will eat into Uber's massive revenue - much larger than Tesla's. This will go a long way to grow Tesla's top line while EV sales are slow.

Shareholders don't need actual self driving AI cars, or honest marketing, they just need revenue growth and the stratospheric stock price - that's why our favorite car company employee is apparently getting a $44B bonus (may come in handy with any FTC,SEC,DOJ legal fees).

There are good and smart people working on AI elsewhere, tesla seems just fine as is.

(as an aside: Tesla dipping into Uber's revenue, with a tesla taxi service- might be safter bet than the simmilar strategy of Starlink dipping into Telecoms' selling of local internet access).


This isn't really news is it ?

Just google 'Chuck left turn' and start reading to see how insane this whole situation is (and then start wondering how is this all legal...).


Isn't this similar to what Cruise was doing?
