Are they still making a cheap two seater? Have they even made the new Roadster that they have been selling pre-orders for the past 6 years?
Grok is smarter than he is.
So Elon's big mad at Ukraine right now. Why? Cause they knocked out a few Russian data centers responsible for the majority of the bot traffic that flows into Twitter.
Ironbite-and now he wants Zelensky replaced.

Tesla to wind down Cybertruck production as Elon Musk focuses on robotics and AI

It's kind of a shame. I do want to see corners again on something. Anything. Not everything in the world needs to be a bubble. But as we've all been well reminded, the bubble car paradigm is the product of many hard lessons learned about crash safety.
The Cyber truck was a horrible idea though. The thing had some very questionable build quality, poor design choices, and was twice as expensive as it should have been. It literally is the real world version of that car that Homer designed that wrecked his brother's company.
Except I would be caught dead in a Homer.
The Cybertruck looks like a brutalist building on wheels, and it even ages like one.
Look at how it's already corroding around the panel gaps; it looks exactly like how a brutalist building gets discolored over time. Except that takes decades whereas this happened in barely a year. I don't remember the DeLorean having that problem. Also I can't believe they went with stainless steel instead of aluminum despite being an EV that could benefit from the extra range.

There are a few in town here. One is stock, but two of them are either wrapped or painted. One is black and the other is Alabama Crimson red, and they honestly look a lot better than the stock stainless.
I think that he can't run that service, but I think that it is a viable service that he desperately wants to do. Take out Uber and Lyft or at least provide an alternative service.
At some point it's going to be viable if it isn't regulated out of existence. We've all been training AI to recognize signs and traffic lights for a long time now.
My issue with self-driving cars was never based on a belief that they'll never get smart enough to be safer than human drivers. They're probably there already. The problem is that nobody's legally liable for the accidents they inevitably will get into, as few as they may be. And no company wants to be in the business of selling self-driving cars if they're going to have to pay for every single accident that happens in the entire country, even if it's one tenth as many as there are now. Even if it's one one hundredth as many.
Self-driving cars also can't really account for the stupidity of the humans with whom they share the roads.
I'd assume that companies would only be responsible for accidents with self-driving cars they themselves own. Hardly "every single accident that happens in the entire country."
I once beat a computer at chess with that strategy.
