The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Someone accuses Elon of rushing FSD to market and endangering lives. Who cares that Tesla makes by far the safest cars, will save millions of lives with this new FSD technology and will also save the millions of lives of people who will not get sick from inhaling the toxic fumes ICE cars put out.

Since that someone may have been me, let me say that I try to keep an open mind. I think Musk deserves a ton of credit for what he has achieved with Tesla and with his other ventures too. And I have no doubt that Tesla will eventually get FSD to the point where it is safer than having a human driving, and will thereby save millions of lives.

But is the company there yet? Have you seen the videos of Robotaxis driving through left-turn lanes, bumping other cars and stopping in the middle of the street for no obvious reason, except maybe the glare of the sun? Given the fact that there have only been a few dozen of these cars driving around for a few days, it seems hard to believe they are quite there yet. Do you have some other explanation for this?
