The $10,000 Gerber is referring to is the one-time payment Tesla charged for its FSD package from 2020 to 2022. > If tesla FSD 14.3 doesn't work unsupervised… we should all get our $10k back… we've waited long enough. $tsla > > — Ross Gerber (@GerberKawasaki) April 8, 2026 ## Waymo Has Solved Autonomy In another post, the investor hailed **Alphabet Inc.**\-backed (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Robotaxi service **Waymo**, sharing that the vehicles drove “better than humans” on the road. “Autonomy has been solved by Google. First,” Gerber said in the post. > Waymos definitely drive better than humans at this point, certainly better than LA drivers and tourists. Autonomy has been solved by Google.

Meanwhile, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) closed its investigation into Tesla’s “Actually Smart Summon” system, which offers limited self-driving capabilities by letting users move their vehicles over short distances, supervising the vehicle via an app. Despite this, the investigation into the FSD system as a whole is still underway and has moved on to the Engineering Analysis phase, which typically precedes a recall, according to NHTSA rules. According to Benzinga Edge Rankings, Tesla offers satisfactory Momentum and Growth, but fails to provide a favorable price trend in the Short, Medium and Long term. **Price Action**: TSLA fell 0.98.% to $343.25 at Market close on Wednesday, falling 0.61% further to $341.17 during overnight trading. _Check out more of Benzinga's Future Of Mobility coverage by_ following this link. _Photo courtesy: Tada Images / Shutterstock_ ### Related Stocks - [TSLA.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSLA.US.md) - [TSL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSL.US.md) - [GOOGL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOGL.US.md) - [GOOG.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOG.US.md) - [TSLR.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSLR.US.md) - [TSLL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSLL.US.md) - [TESL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TESL.US.md) - [TSLG.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSLG.US.md) - [TSLT.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSLT.US.md) - [TSLS.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSLS.US.md) - [TSDD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSDD.US.md) - [TSLQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TSLQ.US.md) - [09366.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/09366.HK.md) - [07766.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/07766.HK.md) - [07366.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/07366.HK.md) ## Related News & Research - [Key facts: RDW Approves Tesla FSD NL; TSLA Down 20% in 2026](https://longbridge.com/en/news/282425406.md) - [Tesla CEO Elon Musk says next FSD release is the one we’ve been waiting for](https://longbridge.com/en/news/282211053.md) - [The Netherlands is the first European country to approve Tesla’s supervised Full Self-Driving](https://longbridge.com/en/news/282427407.md) - [NHTSA Closes Probe Into 2.5 Million Tesla Vehicles Over Self-Driving Concerns](https://longbridge.com/en/news/281753475.md) - [Tesla remotely disables FSD on unauthorized vehicles using third-party devices](https://longbridge.com/en/news/282213800.md)
