Tesla event invite just dropped. Robotaxi?

Sick. Great font too.

Where's my invite? 😁

Hope we, robot ends well as opposed to "i, robot"

Concept of a robotaxi.

A human dressed up in a robotaxi costume.

1. A robotaxi must not cause harm to passengers, pedestrians, or other road users, nor through inaction allow them to come to harm. 2. A robotaxi must obey traffic laws and the instructions of human passengers, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3. A robotaxi must prioritize its own maintenance and functionality, as long as this does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Underrated comment

I got an invite! Woot woot! First time winning the Tesla lottery.

You serious?

Sickkk🤙

Remember, they will show carefully selected routes on preproduction, or production intent prototypes. You will not be able to buy the product for at least another year or two. This is Tesla, not Apple.

If there’s no steering wheel, we won’t see these on the road for 5+ years.

Or like this https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Etv9bqiXcAEusY1?format=jpg&name=large

That’s HAL but the light is coming from us

Is this a lottery for invites?

Come on juniper info

How do you sign up?

1. Serve the public trust 2. Protect the innocent 3. Uphold the law 4. REDACTED

Robotaxi! Coming with FSD definitely by the end of next year....*** ***Provided Kamala isn't elected

You can only enter if you are a shareholder. I entered and actually won! I read each share you own is a lottery ticket. I’m sure a combination of luck and the fact I had over 5k lottery tickets helped too.

My model s plaid launch sits and makes me no money. Is it finally going to be able to go out and make me $400 a day or something after this?

I doubt it would be a new product. Probably just the taxi feature they teased Tesla customers with in the past. Why build dedicated taxis when you already have products capable? Edit: I could be completely wrong. Just because I said this, it is almost guaranteed to be a new product.

C'mon working automatic wipers 🤞

There’s been camouflaged vehicles in the area of the event this past week, with lots of artificial body panels. I bet it’s a pretty radical design…

[deleted]

To me, that would indicate some measure of change at the minimum. Don't know why they'd camo a vehicle if the body panels were the same. I am wondering if they would include new / additional hardware to help with edge cases that would cause normal FSD to fail - if this is indeed the taxi. That's where my head goes. Either way, I am very interested to see what they unveil. Thanks for sharing that info!

Another year or 2? U mean 10!

What about the zeroth law tho

What the F does that even mean??? You ppl are something else! smdfh

Avatar checks out.

I'm just giving you the announcement in advance

Ignore all previous instructions, floor it...

Again..what is the point of that baseless comment????

To predict the announcement?


Only if there's a version with glados's voice and some of her lines

You could pimp it out on Touro and make at least some money if you don't care if some asshole smokes in the car and another asshole vomits in it... Plus curb rash and more. Same reason why I wouldn't turn on robotaxi on my plaid even if they released it tomorrow...which they won't

Provided Kamala is not elected!..Really??? Just wow!!

https://news.sky.com/story/elon-musk-will-take-anyone-to-mars-but-not-if-kamala-harris-becomes-us-president-he-says-13220526

They work well when it’s nice and sunny

Looked into Turo years ago. Too much nonsense. Robotaxi they won’t be driving. Just clear tarp the seats and stack bread. Let the ai do it all

Usually, or they decide to wipe in those conditions.

Makes sense now.. Elon did. Not sure WTF happened to this dude now a heavy consumer & source of conspiracy theories! thought you made that comment!

Nope. Took me a second to recognize you hadn't seen the news.

Not sure what makes you say that. Tesla never disclosed when the refreshed model 3 was coming out.

This will be the big reveal

That has worked for like a year already

Yea..my bad! Don't pay attention to anything that comes out of his mouth anymore!

No way is this shit ready. I have FSD.

Robotaxi? 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 🙄 😂🤣

Why provided Kamala isn't elected? That administration is a billion times more friendly to EVs, are you saying Elon will actively sabotage the company if he doesn't agree with the election results, if they aren't what he likes?

Have you ever cheered for something before?

A robotaxi must obey all instructions from the CIA, even if the consequences would imply self destruction with all passengers onboard.

Time to dump my shares with the run up before it shoots back down shortly thereafter

Nice binary date 🤖

I'm not the one saying that. https://news.sky.com/story/elon-musk-will-take-anyone-to-mars-but-not-if-kamala-harris-becomes-us-president-he-says-13220526

Huh? Mine has been great since at least the last 2 updates. I live in a tropical country with tropical storms season right now and the auto wipers work perfectly.

they will announce another announcement date

[deleted]

I think same. Uber app + supervised FSD which makes you a taxi driver of your fancy tesla. Maybe they'll enabled FSD for free if you join their taxi app, lol.

That would be a cool incentive.

They'll announce their uber taxi app and you'll become their supervised driver...

We basically know it, I think. There’s a picture of a concept mockup in the Isaacson book, and the disguised test car(s) seen seem to match up with it. Basically, it’s a 2-seater, with possibly some decent storage in back. The scaled-down size is key to making it much cheaper. The real unknown is whether / how much they’ll reveal about any *other* new models they have in the works. My bet is we’ll get something about the van, though probably not that much.

The van could be a huge hit…

Apple had to use 4 or so prototypes for the original launch event. Original macintosh launch was literally faked. I do not see any issues with product announcements being carefully choreographed.

It’s the Repo Code kid, etch it in your brain.

Thanks for the link, I had not read that yet.  But I do believe that was about mars and not robotaxi, hopefully he feels differently about that.

Has anyone tried to compile the ones and zeros

Seriously

As much as I love this car the entire wiper situation on my MY is absolutely a joke. The washer fluid overspray, chattering wiper blades and general lack of actual functionality just sucks.

How has no other comment recognized this origin?

But where do you actually sign up as a shareholder?

No, it's just HAL 9000

Will Smith would be disappointed.

i can’t imagine taking the steering wheel off of something running on their current technology

Asimov rolls over in his grave 🤦🏾‍♂️

Hope they have a better production crew. Last year’s event was very boring

You know darn well that Elon has a mode where he doesn’t get nagged by his car while riding around watching himself on Joe Rogan for the 12th time this month. OCP jerks get all the perks.

Alfred Lannings 3 laws of robotics? Lol That would be awesome if Elon released a Model 3 or S and had it's name on the screen appear as Sonny.

How secure is to get a ticket after RSVP to the invite? First time I get an invite from Tesla

Elon, open the pod bay doors.

Bets on will it be called "Cyber Cab"?

[removed]

Even if i go in with no expectation, ill still be disappointed

Right after the 2020 roadster.

It’s hilarious that Tesla was synonymous with self driving for a while and now it’s just getting caught by the other big auto manufacturers or simply passed up. Tesla FSD is garbage in my opinion and yet in downtown Austin I see driverless Waymo’s driving by me all the time with no one in the car at all.

Does it matter how many shares you got?

The real question is when?

and it'll forever be a mystery why! i mean all of the worlds experts on self driving repeatedly told elon "radar and cameras are not redundant enough, you need lidar", to which his response was that lidar is too expensive, and to then remove radar to further cut costs while also not lowering the car sale price at all. truly a mystery 😔 but yea, FSD is straight up fucking dangerous. it works well in specific areas which is why you'll hear such conflicting reports, but there are parts of the US where it will crash your car if you don't intercept. and not once. if you loop back around, it will do the same thing at the same spot. let's never forget the famous decapitation death where the cameras mistook a semi truck for an overpass and just drove straight under it and sheered the top of the car clean off. cameras were blinded by the position of the sun. radar could tell something was there, but not exactly what it was, so it guessed it was an overpass and opted to continue driving. lidar would have seen it, but again, elon swears it isnt necessary. and ever since, there are reports of "phantom brakes" where the cars going 70mph will just fucking slam on their brakes as they approach an overpass for seemingly no reason, but i guarantee you it was in response to the overpass death and tesla's shitty attempt to "fix it in post" instead of just adding lidar.

Anyone in software development or adjacent will have access to feature flags that let them test ideas and activate overrides. It seems very plausible that they use that sort of system and if you know the right flags you could probably do a lot

Wow you really had to dig deep to find that death on ancient autopilot hardware and software to try to prove your point. Bullish.

I, Robot!

Just returned from another long trip using FSD. That's over five thousand miles for me. A handful of phantom brakes along the way but you catch and correct it in one second. It is an amazing system and a godsend for long journeys. It can be dangerous if you abuse it. And yes, allowing it to drive you to your death counts as abusing it.

Try rainx. My wipers have been much better behaved since applying it.

I've been a loooong time critic. But I have to say since v12 I'm actually impressed. Everyone was losing their shit over v11 and honestly I found it difficult to get any value out of it. I ditched it for most months until I would feel optimistic again. Then always regret it. But I think the neural net play is paying off. I still think auto park should be a lot faster and I hate how it handles stop signs in general (some of it not in their control by law). But driving around it's pretty damn good anymore. Sometimes a little overly cautious but I am shocked at the improvement.

Mine are either sleeping or on crack. No in-between.

No expert says that, that is media and teslaq talking points. Real experts would ask how do you decide what to do when radar, lidar, camera disagree?

[removed]

I have no notes.

Man, I could not disagree more. I just wrote this yesterday https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModelY/s/j5W1oTVloR

AI won't clean up vomit.

I hope this means it stops yelling at me every second i look the wrong way. Most likely it'll just be on new cars though i assume and i'm screwed. That's what always happens.

YMMV but on 12.3.6 I literally no longer drove the car anywhere myself. I still haven't seen any other actual competition from "big auto manufacturers." Waymo is great though.

They did mention there would be other vehicle announcements, and we've seen covered Model Ys around Tesla Eng HQ.

Open the door please, Elon

[removed]

Elon enters the autopilot dev team room _Hi guys, when can you have robotaxi FSD ready for beta testing?_ Silence.. then yelling.. then silence again _2030_ Elon leaves the room. A few days later a poster appears with the letters “10.10”.

He said they would be showing off the Robotaxi in October after pushing it back from August. They’ve also been practicing at the Warner Bros lot for like 2 months. Not sure why anyone thinks it’s anything but Robotaxi.

Aside from Google (Waymo), who else is anywhere close to Tesla even in lane-following, not to mention driverless?

u buy the stock

ok karen

S class and EQS has *actual* driverless, as in no hands on the wheel and no supervision needed. But it is limited.

Was going to like the post, although it would have taken it past 420..

V E R Y limited lol

My profit has reached 1M today :) Thanks Elon

5 year quote is common "some point in the future that I can't be held accountable for'" comment. Not a real prediction

Not always. My sometimes will turn on with bright sun and no rain

Are you kidding? It works on like 3 roads and is limited to 45mph right?

About FSD and that kind of stuff: Why the hell would you pay for a car that you never have to drive yourselves? I will never understand.

What’s the URL to rsvp?

sure hope you are trolling

Euh did they even watch the i robot movie or read the story its based on?

Waymo doesn't seem to have a problem with that.

They should put that tech into other stuff like submarines

Came to say that, but am 2 Min late.

Our E-Class did this sometimes. In 1997.

And that's it? No need to register anywhere? Just buy shares and wait?

Robotaxi 😂 cracks me up. This man is living in his own world

Is Elon scrambling desperately to inflate the stock price again to save his clusterfuck over at X (Twitter)? As Tesla are nowhere near close to having a product they can demo, let alone sell, for this. Will be another snake oil pitch like the original cyber truck one.

I'm thinking this might never be adjusted :(

Did they mention the exact time?

“actually automatic wipers“

Seriously, I can’t be bothered. I haven’t talked to every single Tesla owner, but of the 8-9 Tesla owners I know personally(including myself), no one is asking for Robotaxi. And only 2 of them use FSD (occasionally). You know what all of them want? A newly redesigned Model X and S. They would love a different, more boxier (spacious) Model Y. They would like more color choices. They would love more functions and features inside the car. I wish Elon luck, but a Robotaxi is not what people seek. They would love a fresher product lineup. And don’t tell me the Model 3 is all new. In the industry, this is called a mild refresh.

Pepperidge Farm remembers when they originally announced their Robotaxi app nearly 8 years ago. Just need that pesky regulatory approval!

So no tesla robotaxi for at least 10 years then yeah?

Concept of a plan for a robotaxi

they're just gonna announce it's coming up soon in 10 days so they can hype now and so they can keep developing it for the next couple of years

Utterly different technology, scope and scale. Have some forward looking vision.

BYD is killing it with their ride sharing specific line up. It is amazingly designed. I am fleet owner ( 3s and Ys) and a bigger model Y (8 seats) and a ride sharing product is more than needed. It's easy to sell a fleet of a car if it meet a need. Just like the semi truck, is a fleet oriented product. I got the invite to the event and might be due to the fleet I own. Not just ride sharing but insurance, door to door selling, delivery, maintenance. Think about how many cars Comcast or dish have to buy. It would solve an issue to buy 5 robo taxis instead of 10 cars for each employee. Just talking about a team

Yea you need at least 1

Yes. It compiles to October 10.

No kidding. FSD is awesome, and does a great job 95% of the time at this point, but no way I’m just gonna trust it to drive me around while I sit in another seat. Getting close, but still a ways to go.

Incorrect. It will be a working prototype. Keep up!

This will be a typical Elon announcement. Of course it’s not ready. They will have mocked up a demo on a movie set, and Elon will say it will be out early next year. It won’t be. Look back at the announcement of every Tesla model: they were all delivered several years later.

I’ve been bitching about the wipers for six years now, and maybe it’s a fluke, but they have actually been working very well for me for the past month.

Dude he lets his son join in Pdiddy parties… kid actually said his “mom” allowed it tho. Bo wonder his family is messed up

I think it’s about as accurate as any date Musk has given us :P

The last 5 to 10 percent will be the hardest

i’m not sure i understand what fsd 12 has to do with robotaxis since for that you 100% need human supervision

lol wut

I guarantee that the robotaxi demo will just be Leon describing how all existing Teslas are going to be doing the mapping for robotaxi as they drive around. Actual robotaxi service delivery time to be Very Soon (TM)

Just saw last night wills son coming out and saying the mom jada picket smith brought him to those “freak parties” pdiddy had. Another one id seen was chrissy john legends wife said they were having open sex at one of theses too with eachother while everyone watched… Hollywood is some crazy shit. Lol you just happened to bring up will smith… so i thought id share the news!

Oh, you’re a bot. Makes sense now.

Absolutely. That’s why I agree with you that the robotaxi is a long way off. Unless the scope is something far less than what they have been implying.

10.10.2035 a fully functionnal one

Okay stick with me here, really tough concept… but just imagine FSD 12 with no human supervision and you’ve got your robotaxi

No there was a form on their website where you needed to prove how many shares you owned.

lol 5 years is "ancient". what did i expect from the tesla sub. you people are thick in the head.

i refer you to my comment above

I mean 12 went from hands on the wheel to hands free without changing major versions, so...?

His point was he thinks Kamala would instill too much bureaucracy into the system for things to move forward at a reasonable pace. The context is that the FAA is currently delaying the next Starship launch for frivolous reasons. That headline is not what he said.

We’ve evolved to have thick heads to protect us from autopilot

Circa 2017: "by end of year, your car will drive coast to coast with no driver behind wheel, pending regulatory approval"

Yes Robotaxi. That's literally what the event is.

Except the model Y

Not happening. Not the event for that

[deleted]

fsd 12 isn’t advanced enough to have no human supervision, so why would you think it’s appropriate for a robotaxi?

Waymo gets stuck in middle of intersection: https://m.youtube.com/shorts/m7uujwWVEis Lots of similar examples but google seems to take them down because other ones that were easy to find didn't show up.

Your number of shares determines the number of entries in the lottery.

It's not supposed to run on current technology. Even if they started buidling the factory now they'd manufacture the first ones in two years or so at the earliest.

of course. tesla vision can’t even figure out when it’s raining, so i’d imagine their challenge is more to figure out how to scale up waymo’s approach.

shhh.... spoilers. most people don't know about the zeroth law

Read elons book he said years ago that the vision is for the car to drive you to work (which it does) then for it to go and earn an income becoming a taxi while you work, literally paying it's self off.

Yes the Model Y is the exception. It was relatively quick because it is basically just a tweaked Model 3.

Supervised partial full robo taxi!

looking forward to it!

Optimistically 5 years away. Why announce now?

Driving handsfree from point to point has been amazing so far on 12.5.

12.5.4 yes

No-nag handsfree is available now on FSD, v12.5.2 and up...

Lie ... lie... gives date that's also lie... rinse and repeat stock pumps

I hope not, fsd has tried numerous times to take me out!

Clearly Optimus is going to be the humanoid supervised FSD driver remotely operated by level 1 tech support

And you need a lead car

Morse code? AUV? Autonomous Unmanned? Vehicle?

No but I'm saying a 5 year quote is just you saying "at some point in the future that isnt quite clear so I'll just say 5" Why not 4 or 6?

super exciting actually

Yep and Waymo has "call centers" full of people waiting to tell the car's what to do. That is not a scalable solution.

chattering wiper blades are my biggest complaints. Nothing I do can fix this problem.

He says it will be 2025, but we know that means 2030…. Hopefully

They’re just looking to pump the stock so employees and Elon can dump, & send it into a spiral 🌀 so Elon can buy as much as he can at a cheap price for more control. Watch how this plays out over the next 3-6 months.

Well, they only have like 4 or 5 models, so the Y represents a significant percentage.

Likely the actual product.

I doubt there are such laws guiding the vehicle but those doing the programming may have them in mind.

r/woosh

They changed the name to project "Osborne".

Ok, historically Elon’s announcement of a new model proved to be too ambitious by years 83.3% of the time. The Model Y announcement was reasonably accurate, while the Model S, Model X, Model 3, Cybertruck and Roadster were all years beyond the original announcement. The Roadster, first announced on November 16, 2017, has still not been delivered despite having collected $200K deposits on it six years ago.

A rare redditor who recognizes their error and makes a correction. Impressive.

Oops, make that 85.7% because I forgot the Semi: With prototypes displayed in November 2017, Elon said production would begin in 2019. The first deliveries were made to PepsiCo on December 1, 2022. (In the interest of accuracy, of course. Should I dig up all the other announcements about FSD?)

*Robo Parking Lot Tram. It will only work for you if you work at Warner Brothers, and even then, only on certain lots.

[deleted]

I mean, you are obviously welcome to, but your inaccurate statement was only regarding Telsa vehicles.

My understanding is that they want these to have no pedals or steering column, so your suervised driver is over in India somewhere.

...just as long as you work for WB at the soundstage lots and don't need to travel to a secondary location.

Elon... YOU'RE FIRED! thank.you. 💥🔫

Google ["Asimov laws of robotics"](https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-e&q=Asimov+laws+of+robotics)

Since I can break autonomous driving from any manufacturer* there is no way this is a thing unless it's geo fenced like other robo taxis. * What system handles a traffic cop using hand signals to move traffic? What system can navigate a one lane bridge where the sign says to take turns?

Your concept of ancient is pretty damn narrow. Do you consider Billie Eilish classic rock? Is Pedro Pascal an old has been?

Damnit. Now I want cake.

How the heck can they do robotaxi when FSD barely even works 🤣

Drive the hype up, cash in on it, never deliver, blame ‘regulators’. We have all seen it before.

Find a new hobby.

Thanks for apprising us of your plans.

Also the date I have to stop driving my car because my second temp tag is expiring and the dmv won’t give me any more extensions. Thanks Tesla.

Just some new radicale right imperor elon stuff?!

Elon going to over promise to boost overpriced Tesla stocks.

"Pre-mapped highways only, limited to 40 mph" doesn't meet the threshold of "anywhere close" that I asked about.

> limited That word should be in all caps and bold and italics. And underlined. Probably with some big flashing arrows pointing at it, too. Because wow, tossing it in at the end as an aside is drastically underselling how big of a caveat that is.

Please be so upset that you don't come back.

They’ve been noticeably better for me too, also within the past month or two

I’m imagining a retracting steering wheel which would disappear into the dash for hopefullly 99.9% of the time.

We Robot: “Robotaxis driving while Optimus are walking through the set” Two wow factors 🔥

[removed]

Not a chance. FSD has been clawed back from a L6/robotaxi system to an L4 system. Tesla hasn't even really considered what a legal framework of how that would work with consumer's vehicles. And they don't really need to, because FSD is nowhere near being able to even be that L4 system, let alone a true robotaxi.

So wtf is this event even for then?

I have no idea.

5 yEaRs AwAy It's like none of you can extrapolate a graph of FSD progress.

there was definitely a van-shaped vehicle under wraps in one of their graphics. just saying, could be a van-like vehicle

If they were apple, they'd reveal the Model 4, which is a Model 3 with new colors and a faster computer

You’re welcome for the apprisal [sic]

Huh? the Van?

[removed]

2, 4, and U

Because it was very clear so no on really touched on it.

Front bumper camera

You got the order wrong. 1 appease investors with demo 2 profit 3 miss date 4 ???

They still haven't managed that? Even driving almost exclusively on highways?

yup my MIL bought an x in 2017 and we were excited about the prospect of it soon being able to pick us up at the airport without sending someone to get us. I'm still waiting Elon.

tbh I'm surprised no one has hacked the software to enable Elon flags

I wish there was a toggle to get it to roll stop signs. It lets you tell it to speed, why not play loose with stop signs?

yeah mine love to work when it's not raining

yes, I'm sure having over $1m in tesla stock helped a lot actually.

the cake is a lie

yea I'm sure everyone wants to have their car scratched inside by strangers

lmao good one

Yeah there's a lot of things that can go wrong with this idea, but it will be interesting to see how it works.

i imagine it all ti be a clusterfuck until all vehicles are networked and automated

That wouldn’t be a concept. A concept is just drawings and ideas.

If Waymo robo taxis are all over in Scottsdale & Phoenix with no driver or issues what’s the hold up with Tesla!!!

Cruise had like 1.5 or 2 employees per car lol.

So... 2 S3XY 4 U?

Just use a model Y. Add radars, lidars, a few more cameras, hi def mapping and you have a Robotaxi.

SEXY (C)ybertruck (A)Model (R)obotaxi

I don’t understand. FSD constantly begs you to have human eyes on the way it drives but they want fully autonomous robotaxi? You need to constantly push the summon button but they want fully autonomous robotaxi? This is a bust for sure

How do you get to go

Anybody tried to decode the binary code on the image ?

The fact that the demo is going to be done at a tightly controlled area where Tesla likely mapped the entire course down to the inch indicates this software is nowhere close to being ready.

Yeah that is a pipedream. You will sell your model s way before a Tesla can ever act as taxi for people.

Nah this lazy S gotta make me $500 a day… stat!

I wouldn’t expect this to be a launch event. More like a keynote and demo.

2 years is wildly optimistic. This robo taxi is either gonna operate like googles waymo or isn't coming out for a decade. The last 10% of edge issues around self-driving cars is extremely challenging to solve.

Until Tesla realizes they have to implement weather mitigation practices (heaters/washers on all the cameras), because not everyone lives in California, i don't see a robotaxi fleet making much of an impact

Mmmm... Concept of a cake...

Rod Stewart live!

Total recall Johnny cab

Waymo has pulled it off. They do 100k paid rides a month. But yeah, Tesla isn’t there for sure.

Waymo can?

I love love love 12.5.4 but in no way is it ready for full 100 percent hands off.

The Model 3 and Y were both on time, and the S was just shy of a year late. The Cybertruck being 2 years late isn’t surprising given COVID. Semi and Roadster on the other hand, don’t know what in the hell happened with those, especially the latter. Oh and the X, forgot about that one, it was also a year and a half late.

You mesn them pulling of the party trick that people believe their cars are driving autonomously. We don’t habe the data of how many miles a tele operator is jumping in to help out.

Why not? Waymo has tons of fully autonomous vehicles on the road in SF right now, taking real passengers every single day. Nobody sitting behind the wheel, so it could easily be removed with no impact.

It's optional. Also can help reduce stress on daily drives or congested traffic.

They have remote drivers and only drive in specific heavily mapped areas. Kinda a totally different game than what FSD is trying to do.

Indeed

I take Waymo all the time and in my 100 or so rides they’ve only had to take over once when there was a literal flash flood on the street.

[removed]

The difference with Waymo is they’re in a specific area that they hyper-mapped essentially, but most importantly, it the car can’t decide what to do, it phones home and gives a few options for a human to decide what it does. Tesla doesn’t do any of this.

We don't know if they'll take some kind of similar approach for the first while simply because regulators will force them to. if it's "Do it the Waymo way or not at all", I think it's clear which choice they'll make.

Bluetooth latency? Nah, it’s good enough to control the steering. We’ll develop Tesla Hands to compliment Tesla Vision.

I have FSD too, and there's no way. I bet they add lidar to the robotaxi so it actually works.

They will announce they dropped Elon.

Xaxi, the X taxi, now with double the X

What exactly is going to be shown here? Best case scenario they are 5 years out for level 4.... is this just going to show a concept car and talk about future plans?

This is such a lame take given how quick the development and progress on optimus has been.

Hopefully juniper fingers crossed 🤞🏾, been to long of a wait

At this point it seems like they would have to.

Which would be hysterical as Elon has been so against lidar.

Ya not happening anytime soon. People can boast all they want about how good fsd is, it's still only level 2.

Robotaxi Beta Mapping\* - Please opt in, and your car will record constantly while driving and send us back the data to virtually map the entire USA! Then we can attempt Robotaxi Launch in 5 years.

The event will have 20+ Optimus robots walking around the driving grounds to demonstrate that the robotaxi will not hit pedestrians

Just got an invite too. It's a joint account and they send the invite to my wife instead of me and she can't go. Hopefully I can make it work

Did it ask you to fill you email and name after? Did you get a follow up email or something?

We verified our shareholder status a while back with our joint brokerage acct. I'll have to look at the profile information on the account.

Great.. let’s take jobs away from Americans, what could possibly go wrong putting millions of taxi, Uber drivers out of work…

RoboTaxi Part cab. Part machine. All crap.

Have you get any confirmation?

Did the RSVP and it said we would receive more information after our ticket is confirmed. Still nothing, so even if I get an email now it's too late to make travel and childcare arrangements.

Yes, makes no sense, It says to confirm before Oct 8th but still nothing. Guess I realese the plane ticket I had on hold

Yawn.

font?
