He then went on to clarify recent reports from Anton Wahlman and Rick Newman from Yahoo Finances who were able to reserve multiple Model 3 on the same credit cards without the Max. 2 per person limitation on orders. Anton was able to use his credit card 20 times this week to reserve two Model 3 per order speculating if the 400,000 reservations are actually accurate: "I ask because I had no problem placing deposits for 20 cars myself, and I didn't encounter any limit, causing me to reasonably assume that I could just have continued - placing 200 or 200,000 refundable deposits - you pick the number." suggesting that the real number of reservations might just be 115,000 instead: "There's just no evidence as to how ‘real’ the rest of the 400,000 number is.”
Meanwhile, Rick was able to reserve 4 orders on the Model 3 himself suggesting "It’s possible some Tesla fanatics are ordering multiple Model 3s they’ll never buy, inflating the number of pre-orders".
However Elon responded to the claims swiftly by noting that Tesla's system scan detected and purged 0.2% with same email/physical address, confirming that maximum of two Model 3's will be delivered to any one person/address, noting that only 5% of the total reservations were orders of two, therefore the 400,000 reservations are not inaccurate.
Before ending his twitter Q&A, Elon had few words to Mark Zuckerberg's recent interview about AI when he said "... machines that we build serve humans so unless we really mess something up I think it should stay that way." suggesting that Mark doesn't "yet" have a deep tech understanding on AI, claiming "I spend hours every week being educated by world's best researchers."
