Tesla as a Bubble, Part Two — The Promise

What’s holding up Tesla’s $1.5 trillion valuation when the numbers don’t add up? In Part 2 of Interconnected, we uncover the real driving force: a decade-long promise of Full Self-Driving technology that’s been made—and broken—every year since 2015.

This episode dives deep into the mechanics of belief, exploring how Tesla’s unfulfilled promises sustain its valuation, reshape customer trust, and fuel a system where the anticipation of value becomes more profitable than the value itself. From customers who paid $15,000 for features they’ll never see, to engineers caught between ambition and reality, we unravel the hidden structure behind the promise economy.

Is this the future of innovation—or a dangerous bet?

Whether you're an investor, skeptic, or curious observer, this episode will challenge the way you think about trust, valuation, and the stories we tell about the future.

Tune in now to question what’s promised, what’s delivered, and what this means for all of us.
