Teslas board approves a record-breaking pay package for Elon Musk, totaling over fifty-five billion dollars, to keep him focused on the company amidst concerns about his divided attention. The package aims to incentivize Musk to achieve ambitious growth targets, as Teslas core car business slows down and competitors gain ground. Despite ongoing manufacturing challenges and questionable timelines, Teslas valuation remains high, largely based on the promise of future innovations like robotaxis and humanoid robots. The approved pay package essentially buys Musks attention for the next ten years, hoping he will transform Tesla into an AI powerhouse, but the question remains whether this enormous investment will truly secure his focus and deliver on these grand promises.The Daily News Now! — Every city.
