  • These days, most companies that work with web based products are under pressure from upper management to “use AI”, as there’s a fear of missing out if they don’t. Now, management doesn’t necessarily have any idea what they should use it for, so they leave that to product managers and such. They don’t have any idea, either, and so they look at what features others have built and find a way to adapt one or more of those to fit their own products.

    Slap on back, job well done, clueless upper management happy, even though money and time have been spent and the revenue remains the same.

    Tesla is in a league of its own when it comes to quality control issues.

    Tesla in Norway set up a paint shop to repaint Model S cars as they arrived, since some had such a thin coat of paint you could see through to the primer.

    My nephew, on picking up his new Model 3, was asked to walk around the car and highlight trim defects and panel gaps he would like them to fix/improve.

    A friend of mine’s Model X had such poor welds in places it quickly developed cracks in the rear door jamb areas. Tesla called it normal and so he ended up stripping down the car and rewelded these areas himself.

    There are so many stories out there, and I feel like Tesla was given a pass by the press/people because “oooh, electric, exciting, much nice, so environmentally friendly”.
