Senators:
“Hold on… no steering wheel, no pedals?”
Elon:
“Correct. It doesn’t need them.”
Senators:
“So this just drives itself?”
Elon:
“All the time. And we need your support to deploy it.”
Senators:
“Is it actually safe?”
Elon:
“People don’t realize this yet, but it’s already safer than a human. It can take you from one side of the country to the other with ZERO interventions today.
Senators:
“…And how many of these are you planning to build?”
Elon:
“About 2 million a year. We are going ALL IN on autonomy.”
Senators:
“O…M…G…okay let me see what I can do.”
Elon and Lars:
“LFG.”
