Elon Musk's robotaxi will have a human driver for 'safety' reasons

An oval.
Isn't the Cybertruck steering wheel called a squircle?

I thought it was a 2 seater with no controls. Lemme guess... It's a fleet of Model 3s.
The driver fits in the trunk.

Didn't Tesla choose not to allow Tesla vehicle lessee's to not buy their cars so they can convert them to robo taxis and also software upgrade them so sell at a higher price in the certified pre-owned market?

I cringed. I don't know if you made that up or not, and the fact that I genuinely can't tell made me sad for this stupid timeline.

That was the initial plan but it hit a number of roadblocks.

The release of the Robotaxi product was much delayed, and had Tesla kept to the "no buyout of leased cars" they would have been swimming in returned vehicles with nothing to do with them yet.

The policy was put in place at a time when the autonomous hardware was thought to be the "final" version (referred to as Hardware 3). It turns out the "final" version wasn't powerful enough, so a new final version was released (Hardware 4). So all the cars that were leased were not going to be useful as taxi cabs, so they offered those for sale to their leasers.

An oval.
A square and it’s going to be revolutionary. Each side of the square is going to be an add-on

So it's a taxi.
Motherfucker loves trying to reinvent the wheel only to end up at the goddamn wheel.
"I'ma invent a giant system that goes underground so we can move people around faster!" That's a subway, you santorum-covered condom.
Par for the course for techbros. His hyperloop was a shittier train. UberPool is a shittier bus. All these dumbfucks grow up being told they're the specialest boys, so of course people who made better things before them were clearly wrong.

That makes sense. At least for a year in the test case.

But it’s Nazi inventions. Or something I dunno. He’s an idiot and has always been. Just took everyone this long to realize it.

A shittier version of the wheel.
A wheel that may very well kill you, depending on a number of factors that they are well aware of, but unwilling to admit to, in order to fix them.

Hyperloop was a raging success - it stopped funding of railway. I believe he even admitted that this was behind it to begin with.
