Tesla is at the forefront of AI research, together with companies such as General Motors or Alphabet's Waymo, as the company races to turn its cars into self-driving vehicles. Recently, Tesla enabled its Full Self-Driving package as a beta option for Tesla drivers, raising concerns whether that kind of software should be deployed at all until it's fully ready.
Notably, Musk has expressed his concerns about the threat of AI on multiple occasions, calling it "potentially more dangerous than nukes" and worrying that we might turn AI into "an immortal dictator from which we would never escape." Maybe we'll find out if he still feels that way on August 19.
