The Chinese are making humanoid robots too, and my bet is they'll be better and cheaper than Tesla's.

Oh I was in no way saying I agree with any of that, just explaining how his mind seems (to me) to work.
He hyped electric cars to the point where someone in here in 2017 told me I was nuts to buy an ICE car because there wouldn’t be any gas stations left in five years. That’s why his share prices are out of proportion to reality.
Now that it turns out the EV market isn’t growing as fast as it seemed when it was all early adopters, and autonomous delivery isn’t ready and won’t be for at best a few years, he’s gotta hype the next thing.
