During a recent interview with CNBC, Musk said it will be prudent for the company to be cautious in its roll-out of the system and that Tesla employees will monitor the fleet of robotaxis remotely.

Tesla's June robotaxi debut in Austin is a go, but it will be invite only, a Morgan Stanley analyst, who visited the company's Palo Alto office, said.

Elon Musk promised the June Austin Robotaxi would operate "unsupervised." New disclosures suggest that won't happen, but what will?

With any new technology or use case, there are bound to be legal cases to test and define the bounds of the law. Currently, a person in the driver’s seat of a Level 2-3 vehicle would find themselves in legal liability for a crash. However, the passenger of a Level 4 vehicle likely would not.

Tesla plans to launch a limited robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, next month, and last week Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas, a longtime Tesla bull, met with the EV giant and received details on the plans for its autonomy push.

Alphabet's self-driving unit Waymo said on Monday it received approval from California to expand its robotaxi operations in more areas of the San Francisco Peninsula and further south, including San Jose.
