TLDR: Tesla will have as many robotaxis as Waymo in the year 2111, if the current growth rate holds (and if Waymo doesn't add a single additional vehicle). So... I'm guessing the Tesla stock price will skyrocket.

Wrong. I was sold full self driving and the date was promised. And then promised. And then promised. “By the end of the year”, “before thanksgiving “, and on and on. Full self driving.

They definitely always said it was a beta program. You fell for the con. I get that you're upset, but got got what they sold to you.

It’s called Full Self Driving. You’re forgetting history here. Don’t smugly blame me for being a mark when it literally said on their site that the car will be able to drive me door to door, park itself, and come get me later. Beta or not, this was the actual promise. They made very specific claims with concrete dates. They lied. I didn’t get what they sold me. Yes, it was a con, but that literally means I didn’t get what they sold me.

Yes, they tricked you by giving it that name. But they gave all kinds of fine print saying it was a beta program you were buying into.
