    Elon Musk Says a Cheaper Tesla Is on the Way
    Apr 29 2024
    Tesla CEO Elon Musk has talked about offering a cheaper EV model for a while. A low-priced car could attract new customers who may not be able to afford Tesla’s more premium models. Last week, Musk said that cheaper cars could be coming as soon as late this year. WSJ columnist Tim Higgins tells host Alex Ossola what it would take to make that happen. Plus, Tesla was one of four tech companies to report first-quarter earnings last week. WSJ reporter Hardika Singh talks about the through-lines in those reports, and why artificial intelligence is defining the moment. Listening on Google Podcasts?

A rush to cloud computing without Wall Street?

The real reason that companies rushed to cloud was because they were considered buy able by investors. Private Equity firms snapped up fledgling tech companies, turned them private, pushed them into the cloud and then made an IPO with them. It was/is akin to the tech bubblle. You guys are the WSJ...please report on this "cloud bubble".

Solid content

I’ve enjoyed the variety of content, the short episodes and the contributing journalists.

Idk why audible decided we needed to add 15 words to rate a podcast or book. It’s extremely annoying.

Boring and badly hosted

I tried this podcast for awhile but the host drove me nuts and matter covered was well just plain… weird and a waste of air time.
Unsubscribed other WSJ appeal to me esp. as a woman manager.
