Tesla on course for a billion-dollar AI fiasco
One thing is launching something, another is launching something that actually WORKS — especially in generative AI! 🤖 I feel like we’ve seen quite a few examples of that lately: Apple, Google, and Tesla presenting awesome new AI features... In 10–15 months they’ve reached about 90% of the goal and tell the world about it (Apple... cough... the new Siri). Then it turns out the last 10% that doesn’t work is pretty vital and takes 20 extra months to build. It seems like it’s easy to build fast and impress with AI, but it takes A LOT OF TIME to make it all click! Woupsie! Hey Siri, add remoulade to the shopping list and send a heart to my wife. If even that’s not possible, there’s probably still a bit of road left before FSD (Full Self-Driving) becomes a 100% everyday thing in everyone’s garage 🚗 (2 years, Nov. 2027 — then we’re there)
Tesla may be steering into a multibillion-dollar crisis largely of its own making. Mounting self-inflicted risks could slam the company hard—and the iceberg is getting closer.
