They had a first-mover advantage for sure. It used to be revolutionary, but now there is a huge difference: plenty of competition, and a growing number of high-quality models that can run offline (for free!) or cheaper (Gemini-Flash for exa

This it could be the real strategy. Because the more credible promises you make, the more valuable is your company. If sales of cars are spiraling down, then what promises remain there to keep valuation ?

If you are curious, the number #1 beneficiary of USAID is Ukraine, by far, and just behind #2 is Israel. Sounds more like foreign influence than actual survival help. Maybe USAID even funded wars, and caused more death and chaos, who knows.

When you are investor and broadly choose to buy US companies (which is what most people do), you get Tesla in the list (e.g. QQQ) as part of the package, and this pushes price higher, no matter if you believe in Tesla specifically or not. I

Though even if there is a way to circumvent, if there is no audience or ad revenues, there is no motivation. Look at Twitch streamers or YouTubers who are banned: -> No revenue -> No audience -> No reason to continue
