Apple brings ChatGPT and more AI to devices, Wall Street unimpressed

Why Elon Musk’s robotaxi dreams are premature

Elon Musk's plan for Tesla's robot cars relies on end-to-end artificial intelligence (AI) where algorithms learn to drive safely by analyzing video footage from existing Teslas. However, this approach contrasts with competitors like Waymo, which break down the problem of self-driving into more distinct tasks with greater input from human engineers. While Musk's vision relies on AI technology reaching a higher level of sophistication, AI developers argue that it is still far from achieving that. Musk's optimism and vague promises have also raised skepticism about the feasibility of his plans.
