Electric car maker Tesla is on the verge of delivering fully driverless cars this year, billionaire CEO Elon Musk said on Thursday, his latest vision for the future following a series of bold and failed predictions about the long awaited technology.
Speaking via video link at an artificial intelligence conference in Shanghai, Musk said he thinks Tesla is “very close to achieving full self-driving without human supervision,” according to news reports.

Tesla should realize fully autonomous vehicles at some point “later this year,” he predicted.
Musk stressed “this is only speculation,” nodding to his history of overly optimistic forecasts on the arrival of fully driverless vehicles.
