is planning to hire a human team to remotely troubleshoot its robotaxi operations.
Ok so they're not remotely driving, as the title would have you believe.

This is what's known as a pro gamer move.
Bonus points if you land a jump.
On the one hand, this means they may be serious about actually trying to make this work. On the other hand, it'll almost certainly require a subscription to use the robotaxi in fully autonomous mode because that'll be an ongoing liability for Tesla.

how many owners has the onion had now like all better known sites that were magazines they are all just skin suits that only use the name Recognition and nothing more.
i do love a car with no steering wheel what could go wrong.
This isn't the onion nor parody.
i never said that. i said that the onion is not what it once was .
How is that relevant to the thread? This sub is "not the onion". It means news that sounds made up. Why do you start talking about the Onion itself? Or do you not understand the sub?
To be fair, it's really hard to tell what you were saying. It took a few re-reads to parse your comment into something that makes sense.
its simple the onion is shit now and they are owned by totally different people now so basing something of the onion does not mean the same thing anymore.
Sentences, man. Run-on sentences make people's heads hurt. I eventually got your message, but without reasonable punctuation, most readers just see a jumble of loosely-connected words.
maybe im not a grammar Nazi for random comments on the internet. i do not give a fuck about your punctuation i have been on the internet long enough to know nobody gives a fuck about punctuation. i do not even want to talk about punctuation its stupid. maybe get better.

I feel like onions in general have lost a lot of flavor. I think it has to do with farming conditions and big agriculture businesses trying to eek out more profit. I should probably just start growing my own.
you do know there is more then one kind of onion maybe just try different onions.
I know. The Onion used to be such a great news source. What a shame they’ve fallen in to this fake news trap.
its almost like this whole sub is based off something that is shit and lame now like its supposed to be funny or something. so becoming a parody of itself.
Y'all want to laugh but you lack the larger picture.
These folks will be on demand if a car gets stuck or lost. You'll have 1 person to 10 cabs and that number will go up as they collect data and iterate.
Your hated over this dude has really blinded many of you. You can be pissed but this is going to mostly replace human cab drivers in 15 years.
AI isn't going to immediately replace anyone. It will reduce demand over decades.
Yeah, what can go wrong.
In another thread we’re in a discussion about housing and you’re like it’s not that bad I was able to buy a house.
I’m starting to suspect you’re a tech bro and now it all makes sense why it’s not that bad.
It’s not about hating Elon, the dude with most punchable face ever, it’s about hating the fact that my safety is gonna be compromised by lazy fucks who can’t drive themselves and instead are letting the “AI” (aka a poor remote “cab driver” who’s “driving” a dozen other cars at the same time) drive the car for them.
You financially benefit from this shit no wonder you support it. Tech bros are selling out humanity.
!remindme 15 years
Was this silly clown any more correct about the future than any of the other Elon stans have been in the previous 15 years?

I tend to think half of it is bots judging by the pattern of what gets said on the mirad of topics touching the companies he runs.
Then the way they rabidly pounce on anything like the water deluge system at starbase causing massive pollution that wasn't true, then the court basically reaffirms everything SpaceX said happens and denys an injunction to stop it's use and they will still forever hate it, is quite telling of their hatred or ignorance.
Yeah, it's kinda sad actually. It's also nothing different to what Waymo etc are doing, but whatevs.
The cab drivers deserve it IMO. I've never seen a more shitty and less accountable role/job then them. They deserved Uber.
