Tesla CEO Elon Musk reveals new details about Robotaxi rollout

SMRTR summary

Spotted on the streets of Austin: a driverless Tesla with "Robotaxi" emblazoned on its side. This sighting marks a significant leap towards autonomous transportation, as Tesla gears up for its Robotaxi platform launch.

CEO Elon Musk revealed that these vehicles are unmodified, straight from the factory. "Every Tesla coming out of our factories is capable of unsupervised self-driving," Musk tweeted, hinting at the potential for existing Teslas to join the Robotaxi fleet through software updates.

The company is currently testing a new version of its Full Self-Driving software, with an even more advanced model in the works. This alpha-stage version boasts four times the parameters but requires "a lot of polishing," according to Musk.

As Austin lists Tesla as an autonomous vehicle operator in its testing phase, the anticipated June 12 launch date looms, promising a new era of transportation.
