Tesla Autopilot drove into Wile E. Coyote-style fake road wall in the middle of the road in a camera versus lidar test.

    Yeah this is the reason Tesla is massively overvalued. Self drive tech won’t be coming from Tesla because Musk interfered and told his engineers to remove lidar.

    Musk is nothing but an investor but he believes his own nonsense about being a genius. He made some good bets but he also made some bad ones (Twitter being one) and Tesla is not going to justify irs crazy shareprice. Even having fallen 50% from peak it is way overvalued.

      He paid $44M and it made him >$100B richer, it seems like a smart bet to me.

      All true, but I think Twitter was a “good” bet. He controls a surprisingly large amount of the media landscape now and it got his bff rapist in chief elected.
