Tesla’s Robotaxi Can’t Drive in the Rain, and Dumps Passengers If the Weather Looks Risky.

All of this is so plainly obvious, along with how shitty Tesla is as a company. But TSLA somehow keeps its overinflated value.
I don't understand it.
It's a meme stock. Game stop on ketamine.

Imagine a taxi that can't operate in the rain. That is what Tesla has delivered in Austin TX.
These riders learned that the hard way, but don't have anything particularly negative to say about it... That's the advantage of only making a Robotaxi service available to hand-picked Tesla influencers.
Distracting af. Anyone have a copy of the video without such noisy ball gargling throughout?

Forgive my ignorance, but why is Tesla using cameras and not LIDAR?
It’s cheaper.

They used to use LIDAR but Musk decided the hardware cost too much

So is not using a Tesla

But I thought cameras > LiDar?🥴
I mean to do a little devils advocate here he did say in terms of cost... not in terms of quality.
and quality is as we all know not important for self driving vehicles...

What’s it cost to hire an assassin? Teslas might be cheaper.
Less reliable, though.

Because it's all government subsidies/contracts.
We pay him. Involuntarily. That’s how “capitalism” is supposed to work. Right?

I have as much of a chance in the trunk of a mob owned Chevy celebrity as I do in a Tesla. At least I can try to talk the mob down.
Spoiler alert

Accretes?
....you know, I never thought of it that way before but yeah, the way our economic system is designed, money is like gravity. Once it passes a certain threshold, it just...accretes.
And much like gravity it would take a rare and exceptionally violent event to break that hold and scatter it again in a way it won't just pull back together.

looks around desperately for boxy 80s cars "phew!" I exclaim, whilst not noticing the Tesla wiggling it's ass in the bushes while stalking me.

Why am I just now noticing Tesla’s logo looks exactly like an IUD?

Yes, it invariably devolves into oligarchy.

First thing that should be done... slap a "replacing a worker with a machine" tax, before we even think about having autonomous cars as cabs.

earn more and more money
STEAL more and more money
FTFY
Assimilate
Resistance is futile!

Don't. They're handpicked Elon bootlickers.
If these are his bootlickers...how embarrassing. Why is that adult woman holding a little mermaid doll for the entire video
-

That…that’s it? He’s the richest man in the world for fucks sake. Also, they don’t work.

Rain in urban areas is only condition where biking (or sometimes walking) is not sufficiently pleasant to get there faster and cheaper. Busy time for taxis.

Behold! The future, but shittier.

LIDAR used to be too expensive and bulky. Some Chinese cars now have sleek integrated LIDAR. Rain should have been figured out by now if cameras only can do it. Does FSD work in rain?
