[Asia Economy Reporter Kwon Jae-hee] Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, revealed on Twitter that "around next month, we are considering holding an event to showcase Tesla's artificial intelligence (AI) technology capabilities and recruit talent in this field."

Musk explained, "This event will look back on the progress of Tesla's AI software and hardware sectors, but the purpose is 'recruitment.'"

The name 'AI Day' appears to be derived from Tesla's 'Battery Day,' an event held to introduce electric vehicle battery technology.

Major foreign media reported that this event news came amid setbacks in Tesla's original goal of achieving full autonomous driving.

Earlier this year, Musk stated, "I am strongly confident that we will reach full autonomous driving technology with human-level reliability this year."

However, Tesla reportedly notified California transportation authorities last month that it might not achieve full autonomous driving technology within this year.

Currently, California authorities are investigating whether Tesla exaggerated the capabilities of its advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS) to make it seem like full autonomous driving is possible.
