wow, "view count findings suggest possible recommendation algorithm bias", much science
exactly, we should ask Karl Brauer to cite his sources and explain his methodology

I don't want to go deep down this rabbit hole, but when Elon "took over the company" it had no IP, or products, or employees and had produced nothing of value.

Attributing the success of Tesla to a government loan they paid back early is also joke and insulting to all the hard work of the employees and other investors.

Recent Tesla AEB (Auto-Emergency-Braking) is pretty good, the Euro NCAP tests show: https://twitter.com/AIDRIVR/status/1782155551948058755

I wish NHTSA published videos like the Euro NCAP.

New Performance Model 3 is only 45k with tax credit in US, crazy
Everything you quote is Musk's goals for the future he wants to implement.

The website where you buy the car never said it was capable of that.

Nobody thought it was a robotaxi when they bought it.

The CEO's forward looking vision statements are not the same as spec sheets or a product user manual.

The website never said robotaxi. The manual never said robotaxi. The app never said robotaxi.

The CEO thinks it can be a robotaxi at some point in the future pending regulatory approval. (he has said it many times)

How is it illegal for the CEO to have a vision for the future of the product?
