Elon Musk claims Tesla will have fully driverless Robotaxis operating in Austin within three weeks, although previous promises have often fallen short. The company aims to remove safety monitors from some vehicles, suggesting a limited rollout rather than a complete launch. Musk's statements follow a pattern of ambitious timelines that may not materialize.

Tesla Inc. is set to launch its long-anticipated robotaxi service in Austin on June 12, marking a significant step in Elon Musk's vision for driverless vehicles and artificial intelligence. The date, which has not been publicly confirmed, was discussed internally and is subject to change. Musk had previously indicated that the service would start by the end of June.
