Tesla Has 39 Unsupervised Robotaxis Nearly a Year After Launch. At This Rate, They’ll Catch Up to Waymo in 85 Years. - FuelArc News

TLDR: Since Tesla’s June 2025 robotaxi launch, Tesla has built a 39-vehicle unsupervised fleet, while Waymo has a newly disclosed 3,791-vehicle U.S. fleet. So Tesla appears to be on pace to catch up with Waymo’s autonomous fleet size by the year 2111. Assuming, of course, Waymo politely stops building autonomous vehicles and waits for Tesla […]

TLDR: Tesla will have as many robotaxis as Waymo in the year 2111, if the current growth rate holds (and if Waymo doesn’t add a single additional vehicle). So… I’m guessing the Tesla stock price will skyrocket.

    Here’s the problem for Tesla: their “full self driving” doesn’t fucking work. I had it for years (first run model 3) and it was always 1 step forward, 1 back. Make one thing better, another gets worse. This was still the case when I dumped my 3 after The Salute. I never got what I paid for.

    They’re clearly still in the same predicament, so instead they have “supervisors” remote-controlling the cars. Musk simply refuses to acknowledge this fact and keeps promising it indefinitely. And people keep believing it.

      And people keep believing it.

      At this point I’m not sure anyone believes it. I think everyone is just hoping there will still be enough suckers down the road to make some money.
