"It is our understanding that these robots were not operating entirely autonomously," a Morgan Stanley report said about Elon Musk's latest Tesla event.
  • Investors, analysts and the general public seem deeply unimpressed with Tesla’s robotaxi event earlier this week.
  • Tesla’s stock closed down 8% on Friday, when it was supposed to be a propulsive event for the company.
  • CEO Elon Musk has vowed to make Tesla into an AI and robotics powerhouse, but proof of this plan feels in short supply.

    Elon normally throws a dead cat like this onto the table every time he plans on either increasing his compensation or he plans on selling a bunch of shares as in the past the dead cat has boosted the share price. Funding Trumps campaign cant be cheap. I’m glad that the market seems to be finally cottoning on to his grifting with this.

      It was about time that people caught up with his schtick of straight up lying, remember the roadster announced 7 years ago? Where is that?

      The semis? Stopped taking orders.

      Cybertruck is a complete failure, took 5 years to deliver.

      The cheap Tesla that was promisef, nowhere to be seen.

      Your tesla becoming a self driving taxi while you dont use it and earning you money? Vaporwave.
