If anyone thinks bringing manufacturing back will result in a bazillion jobs should heed this information.

You can’t sell BS unless you have autonomy as a sales gimmick. They don’t have the technology, I’ve been in several Tesla Swasticars, they are not safe and self driving barely works - their implementation is incredibly dangerous and still very error prone. They are selling this as a feature to assure safety, the reality is they know their technology isn’t safe and have humans there when it’s not fully able to do what you want it to. If they hired drivers and didn’t have any self driving they are then basically competing with uber and they don’t have the numbers of cars to compete so they sell fake self driving with humans and hope they fix their problems in the meantime.
Felon skum has always been a snake oil salesman and people fall for it.
There was zero chance that it was going to launch without some sort of supervision in the vehicle. Waymo did extensive testing with a safety driver before getting approval to remove them.
Waymo also has a way better sensor package on the vehicle.
