Elon Musk is betting Tesla’s future on using self-driving fantasies to boost the share price instead of building a real car business. He just gutted the teams working on the Supercharger network (right as other companies are adopting it!) and new vehicles.

@parismarx I’m really curious about the Supercharger cuts. Do we have any clarity on whether they’re going to continue to upgrade existing stations to the next generation of hardware? IMO this is an important question because with the win on the charging ports they obsoleted all other networks. But, some of them (eg Electrify America) can run significantly faster than the current Super standards.

@jakemiller “Musk told workers that Tesla ‘will continue to build out some new Supercharger locations, where critical, and finish those currently under construction.’”
