As a testament: Tesla doesn't have a single robotaxi on the road providing paid rides, years after Musk has promised multiple times that it's just around the corner. The closest glimpse of an unmanned Tesla on public roads only came on June 10 with a short clip on X that showed a black Model Y appearing to drive itself on Austin's road with another Tesla trail ...
