the robots are sideshow, people believe (have believed for more than a decade but maybe not people are getting a little bit wiser...) in robotaxis... every tesla investor I know (5 of them) is a believer that tesla's robotaxis will (slowly but surely) take over most of the car transportation in the US. that would be worth some multiple of the current eval - maybe not 100+ but something...

... Why would anyone believe this? Like, even if they suddenly magically jump from level 2 to level 5 (implausible), what's so special about their thing that they'd have a monopoly? If _they_ can do it, the likes of Waymo certainly can.
