Here’s what we know so far about the upcoming event.

  • Musk, founder and CEO of Tesla, announced the event via his Twitter (NYSE:TWTR).
  • The only explanation from Musk came from a response Tweet to another user.
  • In it, he said the sole goal of Tesla AI Day is to recruit “the best AI talent to join Tesla.”
  • Unfortunately, he didn’t go into any further details about what to expect.
  • That means we don’t know if it will be a public showing or a private one.

  • Either way, we’re going to have to wait a bit longer before we can learn more details about the Tesla AI Day.
