There are unsupervised HW4 Tesla robotaxis in Austin open to public use as of yesterday. Lemonade Insurance announced an FSD plan where the price is half the market rate while using FSD. So unless there are specific regulatory barriers for personal vehicles unsupervised should be available for their latest gen personal cars sometime this year.


Oh, but you see, when Mr. Musk said:

'In a post on X.com, Musk said Tesla "started Tesla Robotaxi drives in Austin with no safety monitor in the car. Congrats to the Tesla AI team!"'

He really did mean "in the car". The safety supervisor is still there, just in another car [1], so it's not technically a lie, silly us!

are we really to the point of calling someone a liar for something they clearly didn't say and you even quoted?
