We’ll be announcing that shortly, that we’ll have that and have the ability to do some of the vehicle functions through that. So we’re having continual conversations with Apple, and I would say we’re talking about the opportunity and looking for win-wins,” the CEO said.GM stock is up 26% this year.&nbsp;Read also: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/tesla-q3-earnings-robotaxis-fsd-optimus-dominate-investor-doubts/cLG5iw3R3qn">Tesla Q3 Earnings: Robotaxis, FSD, Optimus Dominate Investor Doubts Ahead Of Results</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
