AdvertisementIf Elon Musk can fully deliver on his plans to make Tesla's Robotaxi the new go-to mode of transport, he could bring an end to the ride-hailing economy as we know it. "Tesla's vehicles, sensors, and software will all need to be approved in any market they hope to enter. "Until Tesla robotaxis are transporting 100,000 paying customers a week around major American cities like Waymo does, Tesla Robotaxi is nothing more than the latest work of fiction to come out of the Warner Bros. "We also believe TSLA could struggle to scale fleet operations without offering access to demand via Uber/Lyft." Uber is already preparing for a future of electric cars and autonomous vehicles without Tesla's involvement.

Read previewTwo major players — Tesla and Waymo — are battling for dominance in the driverless tech sector. "I think that Tesla has a software problem, and I think Waymo has a hardware problem, is the way I put it — and I think software problems are much easier." AdvertisementHe viewed Tesla as a "pioneer" in using machine learning for its autonomous driving software. But he also argued that Tesla's autonomous hardware hasn't solved the driverless equation. Waymo, on the other hand, produces an autonomous driving system capable of eliminating a human driver.

It also exposes the fragility of those systems and raises the question: Does Big Tech deserve our trust to properly safeguard a technology as powerful as AI? He said Big Tech companies evaluate systems based on if they work "pretty well most of the time," because there's a rush to get products to market. He said big tech companies should have alternative vendors and a multi-layered defense strategy. Big Tech companies, including Facebook, Amazon, and Google, saw the sharpest drop in trust, with an average decline in confidence ratings of 13% to 18%, according to Brookings. Big Tech companies have had "free rein," Patnaik said.

A Super Bowl ad showed a Tesla slamming into two child-sized mannequins and a stroller. Tesla CEO Elon Musk said the ad would raise awareness a Tesla could drive itself while supervised. The 30-second ad was created by The Dawn Project, an organization that campaigns to ban what it calls "unsafe software." The Dawn Project says the ad shows tests it performed with a Tesla using the company's Full Self Driving (FSD) feature. On its website, The Dawn Project says Tesla's FSD software is "not safe for public roads."
