Tesla also presented two new products at its recently organized event in Texas, where – after many years of waiting – the robot taxi of the American company, the Cybercab, was also presented, as well as a surprise in the form of the Robovan.
However, the presentation did not go as planned by the Elon Musks, as the self-driving taxi did not really win the favor of investors, which – as reported by Jalopnik reported — costing the CEO $15 billion. To give a sense of the weight of the development: the amount – at the current exchange rate – corresponds to HUF 5,604 billion.
In addition, Tesla has also committed copyright infringement in the unveiling of the Cybercab, which may lead to a lawsuit: the Winged Bounty Hunter 2049 Alcon Entertainment, which registered the film as a production company, did not take kindly to the fact that a sequence of images generated by artificial intelligence, which refers to a scene from science fiction, was shown at the event. The truth also includes the fact that Musk asked for permission from Warner Brothers Discovery, but Alcon Entertainment did not agree to use it, writes the Road & Track.

It is no coincidence that the presentation was held at the Hollywood studio of Warner Bros., which distributes the film, but Alcon Entertainment has distanced itself from Musk and Tesla before. It has not yet been specified how much compensation the production company expects, but the damage caused by copyright infringement can be set at six figures or more, and of course in dollars.
