Elon Musk kills hope of Tesla retrofitting new Autopilot/Self-Driving hardware
- clouddrover 4y agoIn 2016 Tesla claimed all Tesla vehicles being produced had "the hardware needed for full self-driving capability at a safety level substantially greater than that of a human driver": https://www.tesla.com/blog/all-tesla-cars-being-produced-now-have-full-self-driving-hardware https://www.tesla.com/blog/all-tesla-cars-being-produced-now... It was a lie.
- sidibe 4y agoNo you and other nonbelievers are misunderstanding the word "full." It's not called wholly full self-driving so it's on you for assuming that instead of half full or partly full self-driving.
- Zigurd 4y agoIt will be interesting to see if Elon gets away with this: However, the CEO didn’t discuss Tesla achieving true full self-driving capability that will enable a robotaxi service approved by regulators, which ultimately is what the company has been promising to every Tesla owner since 2016. It's not just a blue sky highdea. Cathie Wood's ARK based the majority of their $TSLA target on robotaxi revenue. Elon levitates the stock price by depicting Tesla as other than a car company but zero of the not-a-car-company things have panned out.
