Following Elon Musk’s recent statements opposing incorporating companies in Delaware, a report has now said that his brain implant company Neuralink has switched its incorporation to Nevada.
After a Delaware judge ruled against Musk’s compensation plan as part of a 2018 lawsuit, the Tesla, SpaceX and Neuralink leader has been outspoken about the fact that he thinks other companies should exit the state. Musk held a poll asking if Tesla should change its incorporation to Texas, to which 90 percent of respondents said “Yes.”
According to a Friday report from Bloomberg, Neuralink has switched its incorporation to Nevada from Delaware, citing the office of the Nevada secretary of state and a memo to shareholders at the company seen by the publication. Musk’s latest post on X about the matter came on Saturday morning, in which he encouraged other companies to follow suit with Neuralink.
All companies should move out of Delaware
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) February 10, 2024
The post and the move come just a couple of weeks after another post warning people to “never incorporate your company in the state of Delaware.” Musk has also said that Judge Kathleen McCormick, the judge who ruled against the pay package, has “done more to damage Delaware than any judge in modern history.”
Additionally, Musk said last month that he didn’t feel comfortable developing Tesla into an AI and robotics industry leader unless he had at least around a 25-percent voting share with his new compensation package.
The shift also comes after Musk shared an update from Neuralink’s first human patient, saying that they had successfully received the brain implant and that they were recovering well. The program, dubbed Telepathy, is expected to help the patient gain control of their phone, computer or nearly any device, simply by thinking about it. Musk has said that the initial users, including the first patient, will be individuals who have lost the use of their limbs.

Tesla’s reason for Starlink integration on Cybercab might surprise you, as the company’s Head of AI, Ashok Elluswamy, finally shed some light on the reason they are putting a satellite internet terminal on its ride-hailing-geared vehicle.
On Monday, Tesla officially confirmed that it would integrate Starlink V5 terminals into Cybercab vehicles, something many Tesla fans had figured the company would do, as the vehicle is primarily geared toward giving rides without any passenger intervention.

The ability to access the internet would allow riders to work or play in the car with their devices. It seemed like a more-than-reasonable feature to add to the Cybercab, which made its way off the production lines for the first time earlier this year.

However, the move is not for the rider, as Elluswamy confirmed on Monday night. Instead, it’s actually for Tesla to be able to have a constant connection to the cars in the Robotaxi fleet so it can troubleshoot issues, contact riders, or resolve other issues.
Elluswamy said:
“It is still not required for safe operation of the vehicle. Connectivity is primarily meant for navigation, customer service and, in general, fleet management.”

Many initially assumed the option of constant connectivity would be enabled on the Cybercab for passenger entertainment or work. With the Cybercab, passengers won’t be doing anything but enjoying the ride, so it seemed more than logical that they would be hanging out with Starlink internet access as an amenity.
However, Tesla’s primary concern with Robotaxi is safety, and nailing these first unsupervised rides is a crucial step to setting a good narrative on how effective driverless transportation can be.
Being able to get in touch with passengers or a vehicle if something is wrong is a crucial part of the overall experience, and preventative measures are being taken by Tesla to ensure a smooth process, even in the worst-case.
Tesla has expanded its Robotaxi program in Florida to include two new cities: Tampa and Orlando.
This marks the second and third cities to be added to the company’s available locations for autonomous ride-hailing in the Sunshine State, joining Miami, which was the first Florida city to offer Robotaxi rides.
Tesla announced the addition of Orlando and Tampa to the Robotaxi program on Tuesday morning. The cities now join Austin, Dallas, Houston, Miami, and the San Francisco Bay Area as locations where Tesla can operate its Robotaxi platform:

These rides are unsupervised, as AI Head Ashok Elluswamy confirmed the suite in Florida is operating without safety drivers or anyone within the cabin to assist with operation.
Orlando Tesla Robotaxi Operation
The geofence in Orlando covers a prominent irregular shaded zone on the map, roughly 4-6 miles across in key dimensions, so it likely measures somewhere between 25 and 45 square miles, which is comparable to other early Tesla launches in other cities.
It encompasses central and southern areas bounded by major highways including SR-417 and SR-528, including parts of the Orlando metro core, tourism-adjacent zones, and residential/commercial districts. This represents an initial targeted rollout in a tourist-heavy region, positioned for quick expansion via Tesla’s software updates.
Tampa Tesla Robotaxi Operation
In Tampa, the shape of the geofence is a shaded polygon covering key neighborhoods, explicitly including West Tampa, Tampa Heights, Hyde Park, and downtown Tampa proper, with boundaries along major roads and the Hillsborough River area.
This focuses on high-demand central zones and will offer tourists and citygoers rides without drivers.
Robotaxi Progress
Tesla has been operating Robotaxi since last June, when it launched in Austin. The geofences in most regions have already expanded several times since their launch last year, but the bigger complaint is vehicle availability. Tesla has been working to add more Robotaxi-enabled vehicles to its fleet.
The company still plans to utilize its Cybercab, a new vehicle that is being produced at Gigafactory Texas, for the Robotaxi suite alongside the Model Y, which has been the vehicle of choice for Tesla with early operations.
