myrmepropagandistWell. It's not like he's ever going to do it. He just says things and never does any of them.
Adam Cook@futurebird @mimsical It is just sad at this point.
Apparently, Musk just re-iterated his belief (on a Twitter Space?) that #Tesla would "achieve" full self-driving (however that is defined) by the end of this year.
Every year since 2014.
The man is simply incapable of telling the truth.
Voron@futurebird @mimsical @adamjcook Well for 40 years biz culture has fully embraced that the only interest is profit & self interest, so it astounds me why anyone expects people who have clawed their way to the top to be “honest” in anyway. I mean how many managers have you met that have been honest? Honestly is the opposite of current biz culture
@voron @futurebird @mimsical This is very true.
But these Musk lies have cost lives avoidably.
And they continue to do so.
@futurebird @mimsical @adamjcook So do the lies of the railway companies In 2019, trains in the US traveled 777 million train-kilometers and experienced 1,338 derailments.
The same year trains in the EU traveled 4.5 billion train-kilometers and experienced 73 derailments.
Japan: 2 billion train-kilometers and 9 derailments.
