> “Going forward, it is mandatory in North America to install and activate FSD V12.3.1 and take customers on a short test ride before handing over the car. I know this will slow down the delivery process, but it is nonetheless a hard requirement.”
Do the customers get a choice in this? It certainly doesn't sound like they do.
That's not relevant. If you run a gang, beating up old ladies at atm for cash, it's not OK to say "dude there's a queue of willing gang members if you won't do it" because the problem isn't employment or unemployment, the problem is gang violence.
The question at hand is not the employment or unemployment of car sales staff: it's the applicability of mandated FSD demonstration when it's shit technology.
Again, if the tech is shit, the employee should either speak up and call it out so it gets fixed, or quit. It's a deployed product (FTA: "Musk estimated the number of cars on North American roads with FSD beta installed had reached a cumulative 400,000 vehicles"). I must have missed the articles reporting people getting injured en masse from faulty FSD, can you point them out for me?
Analogizing this to "gang violence" is unhinged. You're suffering from Elon Derangement Syndrome.
