It is really hard before to make a purchase decision based on what you feel about a CEO. But in 2024, it is the norm with all these influencer type founders.And Elon is the number one influencer-type CEO/founder.

- onethought 3y agoI think I disagree with almost all of his examples. But his overall point feels accurate: Tesla just seems constantly distracted with “the next thing”. Why are they building a robot when they haven’t finished autopilot/fsd? Why are they adding features like “Lightshow” and “Adding and Dropping Disney” when it has semi broken implementation of Spotify/Netflix/Youtube. They are basically printing cash these days seems weird they aren’t putting more polish on their features.
- _ea1k 3y agoI'd guess that some of that is just because there is limited overlap between teams. I doubt the team doing media would really be involved with AP. But I agree with your point. It is weird that they've focused on FSD on streets when they can't even do hands free on the highway. There's a serious lack of focus at the company right now, and maybe even a fear of launching new product lines.
