It seems car factory workers have reason to rejoice since Tesla CEO Elon Musk has revealed that more human involvement is needed in order to produce cars. The embattled tech billionaire had to admit recently that automating everything is not the solution to all of his company’s problems, which is currently going through production hell.
For the most part, it’s the creation of Model 3s that has been giving Musk and his team trouble. The CEO said that they would be producing about 5,000 of these units a week by now, but this hasn’t happened yet. He had to scale that number down to about 2,000, which they have since achieved but only because Musk had to personally oversee the production in real-time. A lot of the problems were apparently caused by over-automation, which the Tesla boss admitted on Twitter.
“Yes, excessive automation at Tesla was a mistake. To be precise, my mistake. Humans are underrated,” Musk Tweeted.
Musk reiterated this admission via an interview with the CBS Good Morning show while speaking to Gale King. He noted that a lot of mistakes were made during the production stages, including an overreliance on the complex network of conveyor belts in the factory.
At this point, it also isn’t a secret that the future of the company is reliant on the Model 3 being a success. The hype surrounding the mass-consumer electric sedan by the company is still there and by all accounts, it’s still highly anticipated by those who had already pre-ordered their units.
However, so-called Wall Street experts and financial analysts continue to spread fears and anxiety among both consumers and investors about the prospect of a Tesla success. This is despite the fact Musk’s company has continued to defy the odds and prove detractors wrong time and time again, and even as it became the most influential electric car company in the country.
