00:00Elon Musk just saw his net worth surge by $19 billion after Tesla launched its highly

00:06anticipated robo-taxi service in Austin, charging a flat fee of $4.20 per trip.

00:13The limited rollout, though accompanied by employees for safety, sent Tesla stock climbing.

00:20This single-day gain boosted Musk's fortune to an estimated $385 billion.

00:26Musk lauded the launch as the culmination of a decade of hard work by Tesla SAI and chip

00:31design teams.

00:33However, analysts urge caution, with some warning that much of the optimism may already be priced

00:40in.

00:41Furthermore, the robo-taxi service faces significant hurdles, including safety, infrastructure,

00:48sensor performance, and real-world operations.

00:51The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has already requested more information from

00:57Tesla following online videos showing concerning robo-taxi behavior, like driving in the wrong

01:03lane and speeding.

01:05The NHTSA is currently investigating crashes involving Tesla's full self-driving cars in

01:11low-visibility conditions, covering 2.4 million vehicles.

01:16Tesla has labeled its safety reports on the Texas Rollout Confidential, a move the NHTSA

01:23is reviewing.

01:24The road to fully autonomous, safe robo-taxis remains complex and under intense regulatory and

01:31public scrutiny.
