If bitcoin didn't exist, i would be interested in TSLA for self driving taxis and Optimus robots.
however, i still cannot answer the question whether 100% self driving is possible.
TechLead mentions that he thinks cars will be tele-operated. a human needs to be in the loop in the case of hallucinations.
part of me wonders, is AGI constrained in some sort of spiritual way.
like AI can only be a tool for humans but never replace humans.
perhaps 1 human can oversee multiple AIs but only if the humans have really good parenting skills and eyes in the back of their head from raising humans.

You really don't think that 100% self driving is possible?!?
In 2 years, it will be commonplace.
In 20, 16-25yo will no be allowed to drive.

yes, i think that is. that is my default assumption.
However, Techlead gave this opinion specifically referencing "Gen AI":
"Autonomous tasks are basically impossible because it hallucinates and it is just way too risky. Things like self-driving or these autonomous robots cannot be done with Gen AI... If a AI robot suddenly decides it's going to just go haywire, you need a human remote monitoring the whole entire system. So really what we're seeing is driverless cars is actually remote teleoperation... Okay. I believe what we will see is remote teleoperation of robots operated by somebody out in the Philippines or India or remote driven cars. And there's already rumors that this whole AI thing is starting to come to a head. The problem is not a singleAI company is profitable. It's going to take until 2029..."
The crazy thing is that Uber said in 2015 that they were getting rid of their safety drivers for their self driving program by December 2015... that program shuttered before they got rid of their safety drivers. I know Waymo is now operating without safety drivers. I assume Tesla should be soon. But the back story is that we've thought autonomous cars were around the corner for about 100 years.
and the tech was just not there. I don't know what Gen AI is versus what Tesla plans to do.
are you invested in an outcome?
