Tesla CEO Elon Musk said on Monday that he's 'very confident' predicting autonomous robotaxis will hit the market in 2020.

div > div.group > p:first-child"> "I feel very confident predicting autonomous robotaxis for Tesla next year," Musk said on stage at the Tesla Autonomy Investor Day in Palo Alto, California. They won't be"in all jurisdictions, because we won't have regulatory approval everywhere, but I am confident we will have at least regulatory approval somewhere, literally next year," he said.

While Musk repeated that Tesla will have over 1 million robotaxis on the road next year, and he expects to be"operating robo-taxis next year with no one in them," the CEO did also warn investors,"Sometimes I am not on time, but I get it done." Bannon claimed the chips can potentially perform 7 times better than a competing product from Nvidia, its Xavier chips. New chips already in development at Tesla are likely to arrive in two years, Musk and Bannon said. The company is currently manufacturing its chips with Samsung in Austin, Texas they revealed.

FSD features today include"Summon," which lets a driver call their Tesla to roll out from a parking spot to where they are standing . And FSD lets drivers"Navigate on Autopilot," automatically driving their car from a highway on-ramp to an off-ramp, making necessary lane changes along the way.

So you’re saying you’re developing drone software...awesome.

Awesome!!! Great job!!!! Thank you Elon Musk!!!!

Looking for that $420.00 per share price😇

JohnGouldVA Will they be called 'Johnny' cab, with a cool animatronic driver?

Taxi and driving jobs aren't safe now...We need AndrewYang !

AndrewYang

Creí que ya existían...

¿Robo-Taxis? De esos tenemos en España desde hace muchos años.

Would you send your child to school in this thing? Do you put that much trust for a robot to be behind the wheel rather than a human?

No they won't. Infrastructure is no where near ready for autonomous vehicles with human pilotted ones still on the road.

Oh no, It's happening. Call AndrewYang! Before it is too late!

gastonnusimovic This guy is too fast and lives in the future, so when he says 'next year' it really means 'next 5 or 10 years'...

“Yeah but I’m saying there is a boundary charge”

Lol he's try to burn short sellers nothing else

They taxis were due on the market in 2019, but delivery has been delayed while elonmusk tries to figure out how to get them to stop picking up black people.

TonkaBoyRich Naw

Maybe he can find use on those excess model 3?

Good get that ball rolling really

Johnny Cab?

good

Full autonomy is going to change everything!

Well, as long as they don't hit any people!

Elon musk will be broke by next year. He’s a hack.

Thank you Elon for my continuous short position profits !!! Keep up your malignant narcissism!! LoL

What do insurance companies say? Who has the liability when an autonomous car crashes? Are the premiums lower or higher for FSD cars?

Uber should be worried/panicking

I'll stick with Uber. I like their prices. Taxis are too expensive.

WeatherChaos Owners of electric vehicles should be able to get fully charged batteries at the garage. One would leave the one that needs charging and replace it with the fully charged one. You would pay for this service like people pay for gas. No need to wait hours for recharging.

2020-2030 the golden age of technology

Your Model 3 will essentially be free in 4 years after releasing it 1.5 times per week into the Tesla robotaxi fleet. I’ve done the math, Uber style. IncreasingReturns.

In addition to the technology, we also learned the degree to which Tesla’s success depends upon robotaxis; as I recall it was stated that they could be cash flow neutral until then suddenly massively profitable once the rototaxis are activated

They have been planning this for some time 😉 I mentioned over a year ago.

elonmusk this isn’t going to 🏋️‍♀️

Total Recall realized, can planet revitalization be far behind?

Elon Musk gets it done, but his Tesla timing is not always right.

Pay or get dropped off at jail lol.

now that'd be sum!

He’s just taking jobs away from people now

All up for tech development to support and help humanity, I have a simple and impactful question about robotaxi - what happens to the millions of people globally who rely on being a taxi-driver for their income to support their families? elonmusk

He’s just trying to do a PR/valuation piggyback off of Uber and Lyft IPOs.

Y tho.

I think he should get more sleep.

So it begins

omfg

tyler_grupe

I’ll take the under

Not like he has ever back pedaled on stuff he has said.

Brand new SEC fine coming in 3, 2,...

I swear Elon smoked one, then watched an episode of futurama

Do you need a phone or a card to pay for it?

Cesar_A_Medrano

Card

Do you need a phone or a car to pay for it?

Great, just what we need, more idiots on the road. Though I assume robotaxis will at least have insurance? Might I suggest GEICO? 15 Minutes could save you 15%. Or Allstate AreYouInGoodHands(robohands)? KITTtookMeToWork

Robotaxis and colonizing Mars, next elonmusk will be giving us 3 breasted prostitutes.

thanks for launching self drive car i.e robotic car

Hope it’ll work well tho

Total Recall, Anyone?

And I’m gonna be an Astro-naut, and a car maker, and a taxi owner, and a tunnel digger,

Before u guys keep printing this clown statements, u should always make sure he’s not high first

No thank you.

Couldn’t be much worse then some of these uber or lyft drivers

fine. 🤷🏼‍♀️

RoboUber.

August 21st 2016

Let me guess. He’s about to raise cash and hoping this helps.

I own a Tesla and it has no chance to navigate roads right now.

Sounds like another carrot to keep sucker investors hooked. I went from thinking Musk was doing something good to seeing him as a Trump of the tech industry Tsla hasn't been sustainably profitable thus far and adding more costs will not change that

Ah, Dr. Byzantium, eh? You haven’t lost your touch, I see.

Funding secured.

Will they be fireproof?

robots secured -:)

'Welcome to Johnny Cab!'

there go all the uber/lyft jobs

GET in front of it and hit the break. $100 million lawsuits. Arrrgg

Yeah, I call BS, we don't have the response time for this through wireless and there has been no legislation worked out for insurance of these vehicles and liability. Good luck waiting on geriatrics to figure that out. Come back in a decade if you got some legislative language..

Great. Rich people can take over the gig economy. Power to the people Elon.

Their car making business is making so much money they need to invest it somewhere....

And next will be self flying planes

Yeah... no thanks.

more lies

Elon trying to distract from the billion dollar loss they are about to announce this quarter.

Thanks you Elon, very epic

Get your ass to Mars

JackkDelaneyy someone finna steal the gum from the robo-Uber before we get in bet

Oh sure call a cab and get free BBQ... You!

Ha ha ha

Sounds like a sound idea, but NO ONE is touching my car but me!

Who gives a fuck

Anyone else read this as robot axis

And if there’s any dely the SEC will try to fry him.....

I knew sky net was real

JonFinocchio

Elon Musk's 'next year' is everyone else's '2023'

Its almost that time

There should be a warning on all cars sold today, that it will soon be obsolete unless made with FSD. BMW Toyota VW Otherwise you’re cheating people, like how tobacco was sold once. $tsla

Why are we letting someone with asperger’s decide how the world should work?

AndrewYang called it

More people out of a job then 👍

Tax the robots! Take all the jobs and government health benefits but do not pay into the system.

lookner wow very soon

The year after, Tesla releases robocops:

The scam man at it again.

I personally dont believe it. He starts 100 projects and never completes any of them. Chicago tunnel. L..A Tunnel etc etc

How about us as humans boycott this cause thousands of jobs will be lost due to this fuck our greedy government and ceos they aren’t here for the middle and lower class

100% grade a bs from the elonmeister

So I guess we can expect it by 2026?

TSLA can sale them to China. China will not hesitate to adopt the most advanced technologies.

Su imaginación no tiene límite 💪🏼

Sure buddy sure

What could possibly go wrong? 😂

One of the biggest questions is “Would you send your child to school in one of them?” I wouldn’t trust a robot behind a wheel

VivaDubs RobertONeal44 briangetslowe wtf

I thought it said roblox

What could possibly go wrong...

danshep55 ROBO TAXI! buy buy buy!

Technology has to move forward.

i can’t wait for me and elon musk to smash in the back of a robotaxi

🙄

But what if the car starts hitting on you? Or acting weird? Or obviously taking the longest route possible? Or...waaaaait a minute🤔. This might work. But will it smell like brute and beer?

Elon musk needs to fix the damage he did to Tesla Solar. He had a successful solar start up, and he managed to run it straight into the ground. This is at a time when solar is booming. That's the equivalent of how Donald Trump ran a casino into the ground during a casino boom.

Imagine this dude did shrooms I wonder wtf would go through his head

Uh oh lots of jobs

you’re wrong Elon promised catgirls next year

😂 as his Space project did last week 😂 Pravda is great as his russian 😂.. is he still here? So strange... 😂 probably didn’t learn language yet lol 😂

Jam yesterday, Jam tomorrow, but no Jam today.

What about RoboTrump?

Would be very interested in the roll-out of this. The liability and associated insurance would have to be a huge consideration, especially since Tesla is trying to be first scaling autonomous vehicles.

Read the last sentence. 'Musk also said that within two years the company will be making cars with no steering wheels or pedals.' 😱

thankfully no more rapist uber and Lyft drivers robotaxi Tesla

Rrright...

With the Uber App?
