        No way it can be an AI company, clearly, because if it was an AI company that would mean Musk is intentionally diverting necessary resources and talent from Tesla’s core business to build xAI. Shareholders would hate that!

          Shareholders hated that so much they just voted to give Elon Musk $50 Billion in shares.

            Yep, as long as they keep enabling him the quality of products will get worse until it all comes crashing down. Maybe it can still be salvaged after, but I don’t see it going well.

            Elon said something to that effect. But its all bullshit like everything else Elon says.

            Still, its crazy that Elon said that, and that none of his supporters caught how dumb of an idea it was.

      Jeeps and 4runners are life style products. A tesla is about as much life style as an Apple laptop.
