Uber CEO shares his doubts on Tesla’s robotaxi plans
Khosrowshahi also goes on to highlight the extra platforms that companies have to create to accommodate things that can go wrong in a ride-sharing vehicle, from people getting sick and wanting to pay with cash to those losing items in their ride-share, accidents, and more.

cant even build a functional self drive
Self-drive is hard nut noone has cracked. It will take proper research. Musk has the key ingredients to crack it
1. Tesla fleet of computers on wheels milling real-time track miles every nano-second
2. Starlink satellite HD maps
3. X (Twitter) realtime human data
4. xAI experimenting with AI models, etc
That's lots of synergy. But yes the Tesla Autopilot "Full Self-Driving" is a pure mirage at present. Noone has cracked it - we are still at Level 2 of 5
At least Musk has now restructured the Tesla balancesheet (finally! took him so long it baffles me) and turned real focus to robotics & AI. Because the EV battery is long cracked with everyone using Tesla superchargers all over the US and Europe.
