Full self driving by next year and yet accidents caused by autopilot are still common. Tesla says that you should keep your hands on the wheel at all times and stay vigilant, but Musk appears on TV demoing autopilot with his hands off the wheel and retweets videos of others doing the same. Three people have died using autopilot, 2 when their cars drove underneath a truck that the radar failed to pickup, and the Apple engineer who drove his car into a guardrail while under the influence of autopilot.

Telsa is going to continue pumping their technology until the investor day coming up on April 19 because they desperately need a capital raise. They announced closing stores, layoffs, price cuts, and the short-lived 35,000 model 3 because cash is tight and demand was way down in Q1. Q2 is looking like more of the same.

The worst part of this whole thing to me is Musk's blatant disregard for human life to protect the value of his company. 3 people have died because of autopilot and pumping this unfinished technology will lead to more deaths.
