People are joining because Tesla is scaring them into it. Musk is a dumbass, but his idea self-driving is happening now may become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Consumers LOVE it. So even having some level of driving assistance will win you more customers.
- Robotbeat 9y ago"Musk is a dumbass, but his idea self-driving is happening now may become a self-fulfilling prophecy." If you thought about it for like 5 seconds, you just contradicted yourself here. But your latter point is a good one. Part of what makes Musk effective is, even if he starts with just a half-baked kernel of an idea (usually borrowed from somewhere else), hyping into existence whole new industries (beyond just the companies he controls), which Musk can thus harvest for recruiting and better ideas, which makes those once-silly ideas actually work. That's kind of the opposite of being a dumbass.
