When @diplomat33 joined the TMC forum I used to poke at him like you would to someone that doesn't really know what they are talking about. (fully lighthearted and in jest) since some of us that had bought in to AP1 and AP2 and AP2.5 and HW3 had seen ahhummm the progress and had formed a much better idea of what was Elon talking and what was reality.old threads like this are fun to read, lots of shifting opinions over time. in 2018 when this thread was created, i would have been in the "don't waste your money" camp, but now the tech has finally caught up and we are in the home stretch for AV's. L5 is a ways off yet, but useful L3/L4 is right around the corner, someone will nail it even if thats not tesla (tho i'd bet on tesla being first to market).
that said i can understand how people can become disillusioned with tesla, musk's overreliance on qualifying terms like "probably" or "i think" when making grandiose hopeful statements doesn't help anyone but the investors (which might be the point i guess lol).
But he definitely changed his naivety over the past several years and has more or less joined the ThoseEnlightenedToElonTweetPromises brigade LOL.
