So when the CEO went on stage and said cars would be self-delivering via fully autonomous driving it was obvious to you that his statement was a lie?
- dheera 6y agoYes. I know not to listen to CEOs when they say things like that. They're effectively puppets. I've also probably coded way more lines of autonomous driving code than Elon Musk himself. That isn't to say I don't respect him and his vision, but I'm pretty certain I have a better idea of timelines than the BS he's forced to say to the public.
- Isinlor 6y agoIn my opinion Musk actually believes in his timelines. He does exactly the same mistakes without financial incentives e.g. Falcon Heavy. His "COVID panic is dumb" and "it's gone by April" are memes by now. Then he will also openly say that he believes shares are too high, so of course shares dropped. Not to mention that SEC is going after him and Tesla for his stupid tweets. Either he is an alien playing 5 dimensional chess with time-travel, or he is pathologically overoptimistic. He is especially overoptimistic about AI, so it leads him to make stupid predictions about when we will have cars without steering wheels.
