Regardless of whether the robot was remote controlled by a human or not...

I work in automation and have sold and been around robots for 20 years. You only see fluid motion with very carefully programmed, dedicated robots with wrote sequences - theme park rides, animatronics, etc. It takes countless hours to make robotic motion look organic. It’s not an optimal way to move so the program has…

Literally the first paragraph, my dude

Pretty much. Musk didn’t get rich making anything himself. He got rich putting his boot on the necks of the actual talented people.

No, but they are the people who call the cops when the randos get out of control and keep the vagrants from pissing on/in your seat.

You mean the Roadster deposit holders that paid 100% of the cost of the car? They already collected their money and are on to the next pump.

The only artists involved here are of the con variety.

That’s how the robotaxis will work too. Instead of bringing taxi drivers from the Middle East and Africa to work in America, they will just have them run the taxis from their home towns through a starlink connection.

So, we get Ruboven AND people on Mars* in just a few years?! It’s almost unbelievable!

It would look cool in a movie, but reality is at least 30-40 years away from allowing this thing to exist. This is no different than hundreds of other random concepts we’ve seen manufacturers show off in early 2000s. Almost all of them ended up in a recycling center somewhere, or some abandoned lot in the middle of…

“How can a company put out utter shit like this and be worth billions???”

And yet, people don’t care and still buy the shitty cybertruck over the R1T lol.

Although they’re selling less than before, people are still buying a shit ton of a 4.5 year old model y and the new model 3...

Worse, sci-fi from the 1920's.

The sad thing is that dumbass billionaires put out bullshit renders like this all the time for futuristic transportation and cities. But at least in other cases it’s not part of a publicly traded multi-billion dollar company that doesn’t suddenly tank into oblivion overnight after such laughably sad childish dreams…

Teslas won’t be going anywhere.

Making rides less expensive for consumers is only way that autonomous transportation would make any sense at all, which is most certainly won’t, so who gives a flying shit.

I’d have been fine not knowing about this thing that will never exist.  You can just forego these posts in the future.  Its not like a concept car that wont exist, this wont happen in any shape or form.

I’m assuming his response to the extremely low clearance and inability to get over even the slightest bump is that he’ll come out again in four years when they still have nothing and promise that the Ruboven is going to fly, actually. In just three years, just you wait!

When I was on Car and Driver, I thought this was a door handle.
