About this listen

The Tesla “We, Robot” event in October 2024 saw Elon Musk unveil the company’s Robotaxi, a fully autonomous car which he said passengers would soon be able to fall asleep in, and wake up at their destination. And all for a price tag of under $30,000! Critics quickly pointed out that Musk has often made ambitious claims about his company’s new technology in the past, which didn’t quite end up turning out as he’d promised.
