It's not a "surprising turn of events" as the article claims. Elon Musk is a fucking moron with money he did nothing to earn but threaten people. He threatened and fired an entire team, and LO, they were actually doing their jobs and he was mad because he continues to over promise on shit other people are doing.

More specific to this case: self-driving on cameras alone without depth perception is not possible now-if at all. That's why Waymo was first to multiple markets with lidar systems, and their cars are not killing people, but just stupid and inefficient.
