Elon Musk announced that Tesla will launch its “robot taxi” in August, and revealed his vision for the future, highlighting autonomous vehicles as one of the company’s most important products.
Musk previously suggested the production of cars without controls for humans and stated that Tesla vehicles equipped with ‘Full Self-Driving Capability’ will eventually be able to act as taxis and generate income for the owners.
Currently, Tesla offers this feature as an add-on for its vehicles, both as a purchase option and by monthly subscription.
However, critics point out that Musk’s previous promises about deadlines may have been overly optimistic, and recent tests indicate that the technology is still far from being able to operate without human intervention. Experts warn that the system has not yet achieved a level of true and safe autonomy.
