Tesla’s layoffs and executive departures could spell out financial trouble for the EV manufacturer after a long run of success. After laying off at least 10 percent of its staff, the company is shifting its focus in the face of declining demand of EVs and declining margins after a spree of cost cutting. And this comes after an already tough year for Tesla, as its market cap has dropped 35 percent, the Cybertruck’s release has been met with a muted response, and its rivals in China are picking up market share. TechCrunch’s Alex Wilhelm explores what Tesla’s investors are hopeful for in the future.

    4680 battery dry production failed. They have no huge volume battery at low cost. So they cant ship semi, cybertruck or M2. Drew was the man on 4680. His head rolled. If 4680 ends up being a dead end like solar roof or robotaxi, then Tesla is cooked.

    Are brain implants legal? Is a human recall treated like a Tesla failure recall for numerous accidents and fatalities? Fail and have the cheek to ask for 55.8B?
    Elon’s X spread AI’d puppy rescue photos edited to include be-headed babies to blame on Hammas. American man then stabs 6-year-old Palestinian boy 26 times.
    54 years after Apollo 11, SpaceX blew up two unmanned rockets. My neighbours blew up two unmanned rockets last week.

    Elon…what a sham. Acts like he’s for the common folk and a rebel…but he is one of them. People are grasping at straws for someone, anyone to believe in….this is why people eat him up…even though he is but an actor with no true power except what is given to him by his masters .
