The Goalpost shift continues, If elon were working for me, I would have fired him for having never delivered on any of his projects.

hmm Tesla shipped millions of cars SpaceX launches 90% of space payloads, Starlink is working well. Thats hard to categorize as never delivered on any of his projects

The crucial thing is that Tesla's valuation has the hype projects baked in. The fact that it never delivered self driving or a robotaxi fleet and is now being saved solely by an import ban on Chinese EVs means that any success he had with Tesla is now an illusion.

Once again pointing out Tesla has around 300 robotaxis running in 2 cities (Austin/SF).

Roughly 60 individual cars have been identified in Austin and all have a human driver on board.

I don't really buy that there's 250 in SF

They rolled out full driverless in Austin in November 2025 and there's a website that reverse engineered the mobile app API to track the active cars. It found 90 active in Austin with more declared total by Tesla and 150 active in SF (SF ones have a safety driver for now). Likewise they found around 300 active in SF for Waymo with around 1000 cars declared total by Waymo itself.
