If robo-taxi is ultimately priced very low per mile, it's going to disrupt mass-transit in cities too. Why ride the bus or train when you can get a private custom tailored ride (interior temp, seat position and media set to your preference on arrival) for a little bit more. Robo-taxi also has the advantage that it will pick you up and drop you off at your precise destination.

@unklekal7571 Месяц назад

Also, outside the USA, Uber doesn’t exist as a ride hailing service in its original form, where anybody with a car going in the same direction can give someone from the app a ride and earn a bit of money. Taxi companies got governments to require Uber to operate as registered taxi companies and they are basically a taxi ordering app. I’m not sure if Tesla will crack that legislation challenge because they will crush the existing taxi businesses as well and those taxi operators will fight hard.

@syweiner434 3 дня назад

Suggested feature: Alert rider if any personal item was forgotten in the car! Based on 2 pics of the cab (before rider enters and after exit) and a bit of AI. Not an invasion of privacy at those times.

@ShinkaTV 29 дней назад

While I see them advertising the Tesla app on X, I'm not sure they will integrate the cab experience with X (but they will integrate with Grok. As Grok becomes a personal assistant, I could see "get me a cab" integration then.) I think it's more likely to start out as a Tesla app with Grok integration. Users already have the Tesla app on their phones, so a new tab to "add to the network" is a simple update. Using X doesn't make as much sense to me, because Tesla doesn't own X. What if X was sold, or went bankrupt? Tesla would be out of luck. Tesla should be master of its own destiny, and (external) software agnostic. If Grok goes away, they could integrate with GPT or whatever without skipping a beat, and instead of advertising on X they could switch to any other platform.

If Tesla Ridesharing has the price advantage we think, requiring a button on the X app isn't that important because downloading a new Tesla app is not a barrier. I often have my Uber app and Lyft app fight it out and I'll select the one that's cheaper on every single ride - I do this for a $3 dollar advantage. I'd be happy to let the Tesla app join the fight. For Tesla, in the beginning, it will be about price and time until pickup. Once they get their numbers up to Uber/Lyft, it will just be about price.

You could start it up in any city with former leased vehicles. Any city worldwide can start with an airport-based service to the CBD and in the connecting corridor. Add a extra button if help with luggage is required. Then send a vehicle with a human to handle the luggage. I gave up driving Uber as I was fed up with peak-hour traffic. If sitting in an autonomous vehicle driver stress is less and can work longer hours. One complication is finding legal spots to pull over to get passengers in or out. Any city worldwide can start with an airport-based service to the CBD and the connecting corridor. In practice that would also mean some out of zones trips. The initial operation could send out offers to subscribers based on the vehicle path while it is traveling back to the operational zone. Consider senior citizens as occupiers of the driver's seats. This would cover any delays while regulatory approval is ironed out.

@@HopeIsFleeting If they knew they would require a massive supercharger network upgrade why did Elon fire the bulk of team who deal with the infrastructure rollout? Good public transport gets cars off the road. Robotaxi may actually increase the number of vehicles on the road.

@HopeIsFleeting Месяц назад

@@furryrug5998 Good question with several answers. 1) You need to keep a good balance sheet in the present to assure future growth. Tesla had to trim the fact to maintain positive cash flow and keep investing in more immediate concerns like acquiring enough compute to create the models needed for FSD. 2) Cars have not yet been taken off the roads so these parking lots are not yet acquirable. 3) Tesla already has the best charging network in the world. Now they have control of the charging standard, they are in a position where they can let other people build charging infrastructure for them which they have access to. As for public transport, you're right. Taxis are a service open to the public so I would class them as public transport in a way. The difference is, they are not tied to one route, making them more convenient than buses. However I foresee Tesla building autonomous buses for major transport routes too. I see no outcome where robotaxi increases the amount of cars being produced. Your average car is used around 2% of the time. If that number goes up to 4%, that means you need half the amount of cars for the same amount of travel and so on. There is absolutely no reason why personal transport and public transport cannot coincide though. In fact, that would be the best way to travel, let's say, from a house in the middle of nowhere where public transport does not go and, well, anywhere else. Unless you think that people who live in the middle of nowhere shouldn't travel??

As a Tesla investor, I think buying Uber or Lyft is a horrible idea. Tesla can develop its own software and integrate it from the ground up. People will rapidly jump ship on current ride hailing companies and use Tesla’s. I think many people will see that robotaxis are cheaper and more convenient than owning a vehicle. I predict that eventually Tesla will have a variety of options for people to rent boats, trucks, trailers, campers, quads….. This could disrupt all types of industries. 99% of people who own a camper do not use it enough to justify owning it. Also, trucks are extremely useful for hauling things or taking your dog places, but they are not always necessary.

No. It has never been done. But it is constantly improving, each version drives longer without mistakes, fatal mistakes are less and less over time. So if the progress continues it will reach full self driving. At the moment Tesla fsd runs on 4-5 year old hardware (hw3). Maybe it‘s not good enough to excel on this hardware. Maybe the next gen or gen after that is needed to run everythibg smoothly. Maybe training gets you only to 99.9% perfection but you need 99.999. in my opinion it looks like they will solve it over time - but I an not 100% sure, there is still uncertrainty in my opinion.

This was a thoughtful video ... and got me thinking a bit differently was well. Uber, Lyft, Robotaxis, etc. - all extra and for-profit. ... What about city buses and school buses and other urban (or rural) transportation, much of which is considered a city public service paid for by tax dollars. And of course, parking spaces, lots, above & below ground garages, etc., and all the traffic congestion. The day may come (as it already has in a few places in the world), when ICE vehicles maybe be prohibited in (some parts of) cities and the "Robotaxis fleet operators" may be city personnel and their contractors who would bear all the overhead costs using municipal funds. Ride costs, tickets, passes, etc., would be very cheap; perhaps free for seniors, veterans, school children, people with disabilities, etc. Customers who needed a vehicle (a truck, etc.) for an extended period of time or needed one for a road-trip for business or family or pleasure still might want a personal car or could just be temporarily assigned (or rented) one by the city fleet services. In other words, why not envision Robotaxis simply as a public service, paid for like other (yesterday's) urban transit services.

I'm thinking he started putting it all together about 15 to 20 years ago. He did discuss comparisons to public transportation, especially in the section titled "The Green Transit Myth". Public transportation did not come out well in the comparison. Also much about how a decreasing need for parking spaces would affect built environments in positive ways. Not linking because RU-vid handles that badly sometimes.

Most of these executives are panicking for no reason. *RoboTaxis* are first going to be bought by deep-pocketed _Fleet Companies_ (like *Yellow Cab* in *New York.* ) *Uber* and *Lyft* will be the next big purchasers. Then the rare individuals. *RoboTaxi* is a way to clear some of the *Liability* side of a corporate balance sheet.

Longtime I think the revenue from Robotaxis will be less than most Tesla bulls predict, as the cost for rides will go down a lot over time, but nonetheless it is a huge market and I think Tesla is well positioned to grab a good part of that.

@ConnectingODots Месяц назад

I addressed the revenue part on my previous Robotaxi video. Price will drop, but there will be more rides and besides that also other revenue streams ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-98_UKOZBUFE.html

Tesla is ten years ahead on FSD!

@coulterjb22 Месяц назад

X marks the spot. Makes sense. And X's payment system can tie into its blue checkmark validation system. Blue Checks could be the subscription/customer validation system. And of course, the front door to games/movies/features you want while traveling to your destination.

@HopeIsFleeting Месяц назад

X will be so bogged down with features, it'll be unusable. I want my social media app to be separate from my ride hailing app. There is no reason for them to be the same app. It'll just worsen the user experience. The only reason Tesla might do this is because it's gimmicky and it'll let people know Robotaxis are a thing.

tesla ready has some data as uber uses teslas

@lyfandeth Месяц назад

All perhaps logical, except for a few key points. Those off-lease Teslas have hardware 3, which we know is inadewuate gor full self driving. We know this because hardware level 4 is in the latest cars and hardware 5 is in development. So first, FSD needs to happen. And happen in rain and snow at night, too. Corporate users of black cars ("hailed" not taxis) rely on them to operate without regard to weather. And the Cybertaxi would need taxi licenses on every car, currently $500,000 to $1,000,000 per taxi in major cities. It can only avoid the stiff price of taxi medallions by being CyberHail or Cyberlimo, it can't be called a taxi. And then there's the non-trivial need to have the cyberfleet all wrapped or painted in a uniform scheme, perhaps black like the black cars. And, to retrofit hardware capable of running FSD, which presumably means hardware 5. Of course, commercial vehicles can't just park on the streets at night, so Tesla will need warehouses chock full of charging stations, to keep their fleet ready overnight. And peons with Windex and vacuum cleaners to keep the insides clean. Any hack driver can tell you that's vital. Washing the outside probably is best done at the same warehouses or lots. Not an impossible task, but not a cheap or easy one.

@jdudleyh Месяц назад

I don't agree that "we know" hw3 is inadequate. I have a 2018 M3 with HW3 and it seems to be quite adequate in its progression thus far. Elon has stated that HW3 will be adequate. He also said HW4 and AI5 will achieve greater safety than HW3. So I guess it all comes down to the definition of "adequate". But at this point, the Tesla FSD team are the only ones that know HW3's cameras/inference capabilities. The rest of us can only base it on guesswork and current FSD performance.

@gregbailey45 Месяц назад

"We know hardware3 is inadequate for FSD" Do we? Really? I don't think so!

@olyalphy 29 дней назад

The voices calling for Tesla to buy Uber/Lyft are idiotic. Tesla only makes small acquisitions for specific tech or patents. I don't see either Uber or Lyft having any "secret sauce" and Tesla will easily launch a ride hailing feature within the Tesla app. I doubt they will embed it within X.

The most omportan example is Lyft. It could be as good as Uber and possibly cost slightly less, but people say "why do i need two ride-hailing apps" and keep using uber. With X, many - including Uber users - already have it

@GiantsOnTheHorizon 29 дней назад

@@ConnectingODots Your Lyft example is common with whoever wins a category. However, Tesla will essentially be a new category of self-driving ride hailing and the easy category winner. This new category will be superior to the driver version with cheaper costs, no drivers, and an electric fleet. You don’t need to spend $40 Billion on Twitter to make that successful - especially when a huge portion of the world already follows your every move. So, my point is simply that when you own and control a vastly superior category, a button on Twitter will make no difference.

@kevtheobald Месяц назад

While I agree X gives access to a base of potential customers, just the media focus on Tesla gives them a massive reach to the masses. Musk and the company culture he seems to develop gets them to accomplish what others have not or will not. Giga presses, self landing rockets, and so on, shows they can do so much. Sure, there are failures or delays, but look at what has been and what they are doing, it is impressive. Maybe BYD would be the closest to Tesla in abilities, but I still believe there is a good size gap between those companies. I think it will be good if Yesla Cybercabs start with mostly word of mouth marketing as they ramp up. There is so much to work out, that there is zero chance things starting out great once the service is public. It is not a slam against Tesla or Musk, just the reality of launching this. Problems will happen and they will solve them.

@michaelgouda7882 22 дня назад

Tesla has purchased very few companies in its history. They have the software capability to write an app that is superior to Uber in a month. Additionally, it's doubtful that Uber software could be easily integrated into the software running autopilot. Tesla's brand awareness is superior to Uber so I just don't see where there's a fit.
