I don't know if he's being deceitful or not, although I will say Musk will always spin things in the best light possible for his situation. That's what he's best at, and why I don't but a lot of stock into what he says. In the end he usually accomplishes what he says he will, which I respect and admire, but he's going to say what benefits his company, as he should. He's also going to spin the numbers to his benefit, as pretty much any non-independent study will do.

What i haven't seen is a comparison if the severity of the accidents between their Class Two automation and people driving their cars. For example, how many fatal accidents per mile driven are there between the two, or the cost of repair on average between the two? Maybe I just missed it.
