Tesla Pileup: Elon Musk's Response

Tesla Pileup: Elon Musk's Response

Elon Musk responds to concerns raised by a scene in the Netflix movie 'Leave the World Behind' where Tesla cars drive themselves into a pileup. Musk attempts to reassure people by highlighting that Teslas can charge from solar panels even in a doomsday scenario. However, he fails to address the main issue of the cars being able to drive on their own. The movie capitalizes on fears of self-driving technology, although it is not the main focus of the film.
