The labor force is going to be significantly reduced with these technological innovations. I can see these things doing home improvement jobs.

He made sure to say long-term at that price so it's aspirational.

Why are the robots dancing?? They should be cleaning my house, cooking me dinner, and cutting my grass.

How much will it cost when your labor costs become almost non-existent in the manufacturing and delivery process?

The R&D is going to keep prices high.

Cybersecurity as to avoid anyone or anything affecting the vehicles when fully autonomous.

Lithium/battery technology will never be cheap.

The labor force and costs will just transfer over.

There are hotels and cruise ship bars with robot bartenders they operate at a snails pace but have the luxury of being stocked completely with a plethora of ingredients and pre-assigned drinks. I don't think a robot will have an issue learning how to measure shots and pours with the right tools available.

With the Robovan if you max it out with the average American man (200 lbs) and woman (170 lbs) you're talking 3700 lbs on average payload capacity, not including everything said persons have on them. So we're talking the ability to move as many of people that an average 1 ton pickup truck can move on its weight. Supposedly at $0.10-$0.20 per mile? I'm assuming this is maxing out the passenger seats every time.

Driving is my biggest stressor. Only do it 6-8k miles per year. Will pay 150K if iy means ill never have to drive again.

That is legit insane.

He brought the damn robots to the show and they're bartending and handing out goodie bags to the audience.


America bitches!!

Elon is going to be a trillionaire in 5 years.

YES THAT'S THE ROVOVAN AND YES THAT'S EXACTLY HOW IT'S GOING TO LOOK.

He's a hoot.

But will any of that run for long in the snow, or in freezing weather?

Why would you waste money on a robot bartender? If you want to automate a bar, there a cheaper and more efficient ways to do it. Just have a machine that mixes the drinks and a deliver method. No need for an automaton.
