Elon Musk Made Tesla Fans Think Unsupervised Robotaxis Had Arrived. They Can’t Find Them

Elon Musk Made Tesla Fans Think Unsupervised Robotaxis Had Arrived. They Can’t Find Them

Tech-news , ,

“Just started Tesla Robotaxi drives in Austin with no safety monitor in the car,” Elon Musk wrote on X last Thursday. That post embedded a second post from the Tesla enthusiast account @TSLA99T saying “I am in a robotaxi without safety monitor,” with a video showing the interior of a Tesla stopped at a red light. No one was in the driver’s seat, and the video was taken from the back seat. The video seemed to prove that what Elon Musk was saying was true: Tesla robotaxis are truly driverless now, like Waymo rides.

Tesla’s vice president of Software, Ashok Elluswamy, also posted on January 22 that Tesla was “starting with a few unsupervised vehicles mixed in with the broader Robotaxi fleet with Safety Monitors.”

Since that day, small fish Tesla fans have posted on X about hoping to find unsupervised Tesla robotaxis. And it’s possible unsupervised rides for paying customers are happening anonymously, but it looks more like the company is providing preview rides to extremely loyal Tesla influencers, and perhaps only with a human-driven Tesla right behind the robotaxi every step of the way.

For instance, since unsupervised rides were announced, Tesla influencer David Moss, notable for claiming (with some actual evidence) that he took a coast-to-coast trip in a Tesla without touching the steering wheel, has been hard at work trying to find one.

According to an X post on Tuesday—five days after Musk’s announcement—Moss had taken 42 Tesla robotaxi rides, which is more than eight per day, and all of them had supervisors not just up front, but behind the wheel. Tesla moved these handlers from the passenger seat to the driver seat back in September.

It’s not clear if TSLA99T was claiming to have received an unsupervised Tesla robotaxi ride as a paying customer. On the same day as TSLA99T’s ride, Joe Tegtmeyer—a noted Tesla super-obsessive—also rode in one of these “unsupervised” Teslas, but revealed that it was actually supervised by a chase car. This would certainly be an unwieldy way to run an app-based robotaxi operation.

According to Electrek (who first reported on this story) Tesla stock climbed 4% on the news of unsupervised robotaxis. Some headlines have seemingly also taken the bait, giving the impression that truly driverless rides are available to the public.

But, as Gizmodo wrote the day after Musk’s announcement, it appears that the rare “chase car” version of a theoretically unsupervised robotaxi may be the only version of an unsupervised Tesla robotaxi currently on the road, but paying customers can’t even seem to access those anyway. 

As of this writing on Wednesday night, Moss was claiming to have unsuccessfully taken 54 robotaxi rides in pursuit of one unsupervised one. 

 

On the Tesla earnings call that happened while Moss was still on his quest, Elon Musk mentioned unsupervised driving, saying testing is occurring in multiple cities, and that he and his company are “actually just being paranoid about safety.”

Gizmodo reached out to Tesla for information about whether or not any unsupervised rides have been given to paying customers, and whether or not any such rides involved a chase car. We will update if we hear back.

All eyes are on Maine this week. Political operatives in Trumpworld tell Inner Loop they hope embattled senate candidate Graham Platner will stay in the race as long as possible—the state’s electoral chaos can only help Republicans, they claim.

Platner, a US Marine veteran, overcame a string of controversies to easily win the Democratic primary last month. Platner is supposed to face incumbent Republican Susan Collins in the general election in one of the nation’s most closely watched races in November, but a litany of Democratic officials are now calling for him to drop out.

On Monday, a woman in Maine accused Platner of sexual assault and told Politico that he had once forced her to have sex over her objections. (Platner’s campaign did not respond to a request for comment, though it previously denied the allegation in a statement to Politico.)

Platner had previously been accused of mistreating women, had covered up a Nazi tattoo, and was linked to multiple offensive online comments. Over the past 24 hours, Democrats from Senator Bernie Sanders to Senator Chuck Schumer have called for him to step out of the race.

Trumpworld operatives say their hope—unsurprisingly—is that Platner stays in the race, given his increasingly toxic political brand, his growing horde of political enemies in his own party, and the knock-on effects on his fundraising operation.

Basically, it’s a dumpster fire, and Republicans are all but making s’mores.

“Platner should stay in and fight the liberal lobbyist establishment!” one strategist jokingly told Inner Loop. Like others interviewed for this story, they spoke candidly on the condition of anonymity.

Funding is also going to be a problem, operatives noted with glee. The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, or DSCC, has announced that it will not bankroll Platner’s campaign, should he stay in the race.

The operatives are thrilled by this: As a result, Platner would have to rely on small-dollar donors. Despite his fervent fan base, these donations would almost certainly not cover the tens of millions of dollars that both sides are expecting to have to pour into TV ads closer to the midterms. (The Boston-area media market is among the top 10 most expensive in the country, and Mainers do watch TV.)

But Trump operatives also think even if Platner does step aside, the Senate race in Maine firmly tilts in Collins’ favor.

Democrats have until July 13 for Platner to drop out, and a July 27 deadline for a special election to replace Platner’s name on the ballot. Democratic operatives in the state tell Inner Loop this could happen the weekend of July 25, but Trumpworld doesn’t think the alternative candidates would pose a major challenge.

Janet Mills, the governor of Maine who dropped out of the Democratic Senate primary, is seen as one option. But Mills has a similar profile to Collins, who the operatives still think would edge out a victory, especially given her performance bucking Joe Biden in 2020.

Another option is Troy Jackson, a former Maine state senator. But another longtime GOP strategist was skeptical whether voters would look past the baggage accompanying any Democratic candidate following the Platner saga.

“At the end of the day, Democrats have to run a perfect race to beat Collins, which they have not done. She’s still the least offensive candidate of the Senate Republican conference, and so the strongest candidate we could have in the race,” one longtime GOP strategist says.

Still, Trumpworld and the Republicans’ Senate campaign arm expect a bruising fight in the Maine Senate race that could cost them hundreds of millions of dollars. And while they believe Collins can win, it could end up being tight. Get the graham crackers.

Samsung has announced that its next Galaxy Unpacked launch event will be held on July 22nd, with the tagline: “A new shape unfolds.”

It’s long been rumored that Samsung is about to expand its foldable phone line to a third format, with a shorter and wider version of its big book-style foldables, to match Huawei’s Pura X Max and Apple’s expected foldable iPhone. Today’s announcement adds to that impression, showing a tall ticket with the stub torn off, leaving it shorter than before.

Alongside the wider foldable, Samsung is expected to announce updated versions of its existing Flip and Fold phones, with the latter potentially rebranded to the Z Fold 8 Ultra to differentiate it from the new form factor. New Galaxy Watches are likely too, with potential updates to both the mainline Galaxy Watch and the more premium Ultra model.

Galaxy Unpacked will be held in London, UK, kicking off at 9am ET on July 22nd.

It’s long been rumored that Samsung is about to expand its foldable phone line to a third format, with a shorter and wider version of its big book-style foldables, to match Huawei’s Pura X Max and Apple’s expected foldable iPhone. Today’s announcement adds to that impression, showing a tall ticket with the stub torn off, leaving it shorter than before.

Alongside the wider foldable, Samsung is expected to announce updated versions of its existing Flip and Fold phones, with the latter potentially rebranded to the Z Fold 8 Ultra to differentiate it from the new form factor. New Galaxy Watches are likely too, with potential updates to both the mainline Galaxy Watch and the more premium Ultra model.

Galaxy Unpacked will be held in London, UK, kicking off at 9am ET on July 22nd.
