Elon Musk is the person with the most money in the world, because he develops multiple projects simultaneously without neglecting a single one. In the middle of the controversy between Twitter and Threadsthe South African tycoon sets a date for an expected launch of Tesla Motors: autonomous cars.
As its name indicates, these are electric cars with full autonomy, and not partial as the recent designs of your company have integrated. The Threads, Twitter and supposed fight with Mark Zuckerberg remains like a circus that the director of SpaceX also enjoys. In the reality of business, Elon puts on his overalls and sets out to make money like nobody else.
A totally independent car, without human supervision, is a technological advance that has been talked about since before the covid-19 pandemic. However, its reality seems to be closer than ever, according to what Elon Musk himself said at an Artificial Intelligence conference in Shanghai.
“In terms of where Tesla is at this stage, I think we are very close to achieving fully autonomous driving without human supervision,” said the CEO of the electric car pioneer.
However, he clarifies that “this is just speculation, but I think we will achieve full autonomous driving, maybe what you would call four or five, I think by the end of this year.”
Elon Musk has been talking about this topic for years. He accepts that he was wrong in the previous predictions, but now he is sure. “I feel like we’re closer to that than ever,” he said, according to a review by Daily Maihe.
