  He’s always promising shit that never happens. He’s just a stupidly wealthy pub bore.

  Piss off, In 2016 Elon Musk promised full self driving would be ready by the end of 2017.

    I cringe when I remember that I parroted the then current expectations on self driving back then.

      I believed him too back then, usually if a CEO makes such a statement it’s pretty solid. Because they are responsible to for instance stock holders.
      How he can make all these false promises, and still be rewarded by stock holder with a $55billion bonus, is a mystery to me, as I see it, he is liable towards both stock holders, and customers who bought stock or a Tesla under false pretenses.

  first of many

  Humanoid robots exist. They just haven’t yet found an application where the existing implementations are more-desirable than alternatives.

    No no, they meant first of many unfulfilled promises.

  An Elon Musk promise is about as valuable as a pocketfull of lint.

• CosmoNova@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  So they renewed their promised from… how many years ago with nothing to show for it?

  Just make cars that work and stick to it.

  I’m sure it won’t have any of the defects of the cyberdumpster.

    If he’s going for the Cybertruck look, they will probably come out like this:

      Unlike Imperial Storm Troopers, they sometimes hit their target.

      Judging by Musk’s previous styling choices, may I offer this?
