@LikeFolio's Andy Swan shows what he considers eye-opening statistics for Tesla's (TSLA) autonomous driving safety. His firm's data found that supervised autonomous driving was more than two times safer than having a human at the wheel.
Waymo, the Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL) autonomous driving operation, is widely considered the leader in the advance of self-driving car technology.
Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) continues to show bullish momentum as the Delaware Supreme Court reinstated CEO Elon Musk's $139 billion stock award, propped up further by new Tesla stock price revisions over the past few days.
Alphabet-owned Waymo kept its robotaxi services on pause in the San Francisco Bay Area Sunday following widespread blackouts that had affected their vehicles' behavior. San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie said, in a post on X, that police officers and fire crews were deployed across impacted neighborhoods to help transit services resume.
Tesla has registered 1,655 vehicles for its Bay Area ride-hailing service with the CPUC. When the service launched in August the company had 28 cars and 128 drivers, the CPUC said Tesla's Robotaxi is not registered as an AV in the state, and operates as a ride-hailing service with FSD.
Tesla is recruiting factory workers and sales staff to be AI operators for its "Robotaxi" service. The company is offering workers extra hours to help drive its fleet in the Bay Area.
When it comes to Tesla's (TSLA) 2026, Steve Westly isn't optimistic on car sales, calling for a second straight year of declines. As investors price the stock on autonomous aspirations, Steve says the company needs to emphasize the shift to robotaxi with a regulation push and expansion to more cities.
Tesla (TSLA) experienced a bumpy road in 2025 even though the stock recently hit all-time highs. George Tsilis talks about Tesla's evolution as an energy and EV company, along with its acceleration in autonomous driving through robotaxi and robotics like Optimus.
Elon Musk recently confirmed that robotaxi testing, without occupants, is underway. Investors are excited about the robotaxi and Tesla's artificial intelligence (AI) ambitions.
A Delaware judge previously rejected the 2018 package, but Friday's ruling said it would have been unfair for Musk to have been left uncompensated for years of work.
The ruling means that Musk can finally get paid for his work since 2018, when he transformed Tesla from a struggling startup to one of the world's most valuable companies.
