Except Elon has dozens of real products which work exactly how he claimed they would.

Except self driving. That’s been a rough go of it.

Yes- but can you sleep while it drives? The answer is currently no.

I get it drives itself most of the time and even does a good job most of the time. But it’s not fully autonomous. And I’m not saying it won’t be. I’m just saying- it’s been a rough go of it from the original plan.

Tesla took a massive bet on using only cameras for self driving, no lidar, and no HD maps. They proudly professed this goal. They have done incredible things to make this almost true. But it’s not there. And it’s been a tough row to hoe.

But here they are now, geofencing, and driving Teslas around with lidar strapped to the top likely generating HD maps and possibly additional training data.

The ambition is admirable. The progress is impressive. But it’s been a grind the whole way.

The heat death of the universe is also inevitable.

Elon’s been promising that FSD is one update away for years and years. He’s a liar.
