Public comments from the CEO need to hold the same weight as the company website, I think. Especially when they all end in “100% confident”.

Especially when Tesla has stated in filings that @elonmusk or whatever his Twitter handle is "is an official communication channel of Tesla" (which was part of the SEC's issue), though I realize that many of those statements were elsewhere too.

Musk, in 2015, viewed FSD as a solved problem just needing implementation: "I view it as a solved problem. We know exactly what we need to do and we will be there in a few years."

Somewhere along the line, the problem got unsolved. In 2022, "Our focus now is just on solving this problem".
