I heard today an analyst say this is $1.4 trillion industry by 2040 although he was only giving Tesla $250 billion of it [only].
I remain dubious although FSD will get here [en mass] just not quite as soon as everyone thinks.
Musk says 10-20 times safer - probably true
In production late 2026 or quite possible 2027 - That is Musklish for 2029.
The cybercab he displayed was a small 2 seater. ugh

Except in urban settings where the main mode of transportation is already Uber or taxi cab I just don't see the practicality.
People still want the convenience of being able to quickly get in there car. How many folks have changed how many vehicles they own and reduced it by 1 and now use Uber to run errands to the grocery store etc.? I don't know anyone. I would like to know what percent of Uber traffic is either airport, business meeting, or when you might be having a drink or two. that is all I have seen it used for.
