I wrote the other day about Tesla “Full Self Driving” (FSD) reportedly getting much better with the 12.5 update.

When rumors came out that Tesla’s robotaxi reveal event would be delayed, it was not the greatest shock the world has ever seen. Musk has been overly optimistic on robotaxi timelines for about a decade. The date for the event originally seemed to be pulled out of the air, and … [continued]

In the world of Tesla Full Self Driving (FSD), I hear two main views. The Tesla bulls (of which I am a member) seem to pretend that it is a foregone conclusion that Tesla will solve FSD soon and the only thing left is details like the app to call … [continued]

It’s going to be a robotaxi special today, apparently. Carolyn kicked it off with an article about one independent analyst’s critique of ARK Invest’s Tesla robotaxi and stock forecast. I was triggered by some wild assumptions in that critique, so wrote my own article highlighting a few things. However, there … [continued]
