1. The headline is misleading and sensationalized, as it implies that Elon Musk revealed a sentimental reason behind the 8/8 date for the robotaxi unveil because he is emotionally attached to his triplets' birthday or the lucky number in China. However, this is not the main or sole reason for choosing this date, and there might be other factors involved, such as strategic planning, marketing, production readiness, etc.
