i disagree with the 65,000 figure. A baseline tesla model 3 is 38000 dollars, which has a computer that can handle full self driving beta. I can see the price going down TBH

Tesla's FSD is really far from actually being full self-driving. There's a lot of computer required to get from 85% perfect to 99%. Uber and Cruise also both have lidar which is spendy.

You cannot buy a TM3 for less than $47K. And you'll be waiting a long time for it if you don't pay $12K for FSD.

Tesla FSD isn’t what we’re talking about here, that’s a level 2 system. Robotaxis would have to be level 5, or at least level 4.
