Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen Xiao Zhan for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, June 6 (Xinhua)-- General Motors recently admitted that Tesla is in a leading position in electric vehicle technology. In this regard, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said that Tesla is willing to cooperate with other automakers to accelerate the popularity of electric vehicles.

Musk responded to GM's approval on Twitter and stressed Tesla's selfless attitude towards other car companies. "Tesla is eager to help other car companies as much as possible," Musk said. "A few years ago, we provided all our patents for free. Now we are enabling other companies to use our network of supercharging stations. We are also happy to license Autopilot / FSD and other Tesla technologies."

A few years ago, Tesla took a radical step of releasing all his patents to the public free of charge. The initiative aims to promote competition in the field of electric vehicles and accelerate the transition to sustainable transportation. Recently, Tesla went a step further, opening its supercharging network to other companies, a decision that could significantly change the pattern of charging infrastructure for electric vehicles.

Musk mentioned that the licensing of Autopilot / FSD autopilot technology could also lead to significant cooperation in the industry, these advanced driving assistance technologies distinguish Tesla from many competitors. By providing these technologies to other companies, Tesla may significantly affect the progress of autopilot.

CTOnews.com noted that last month, Musk said in a Twitter space exchange with Ford CEO Jim Farley: "just as Android as a general standard may help the mobile phone industry, we may open up more source code."
