I see this pro cross-talk argument all the time... but wouldn't that leave open a big vulnerability for bad actors to send false data between cars and, if they should choose to, control multiple vehicles and cause collisions?

From the car purchase page, it seems that they are charging an additional $13,200 (combining the addons Enhanced Autopilot and Full Self Driving capability at $7,900 and $5,300 respectively) for the full experience: https://www.t

Very similar to the general pitch process we emphasize for startups coming out of UWaterloo, just this article was a little too vague on the details. I summarized our pitch formula (with some overlap but more concrete tips) here: https:&#x

Replace any top CEO with any top founder CEO and you may be more correct- however I doubt that all CEOs, founders of their own vision or not, do not do what they do for the money. Greed perhaps is not a great motivator, but money alone is.
