>However, Tesla is currently running 5 ads on Google, and they are all about getting Tesla shareholders to vote for Musk’s new compensation package

That's wild ... I've not seen much in the way of this specific of an advertisement before.

Musk has been lying at a super high rate lately but since Q4 2021 the stock has been flat , with the exception of the Trump bromance trade last year

I've seen a lot of amazing robot videos lately that aren't CGI (as was the case a few years ago) and none of them are from Tesla Optimus. The Robotaxi videos have not been encouraging either. Waymo just got a license for the notoriously difficult San Fransisco airport SFO. I can't imagine a Tesla Robotaxi successfully navigating that place based on the videos I've seen.

I understand the faith people have in Musk based on SpaceX, but that doesn't seem to be translating to cars and robots.
