TLDR: Tesla will have as many robotaxis as Waymo in the year 2111, if the current growth rate holds (and if Waymo doesn't add a single additional vehicle). So... I'm guessing the Tesla stock price will skyrocket.

Unsupervised? Is that what they call “outsourced to the Philippines” these days?

    Yes, it's called human in the loop and has been an industry term for years in manufacturing.

    As of last check they have 60 or so people monitoring over 5k cars.

    So yes, mostly unsupervised with at worst less than 1% of the fleet being given commands at any given time.

    Huh? Tesla doesn't have 5K cars. They have 39 and probably an operator for each, or they would have more cars on the road already.
