@pbeisel "Tesla's Golden Age Its interesting to watch the debate on Tesla's new cars as the company enters a new Golden Age of autonomy. Wall Street will one day wake up to the fact that Tesla is not an auto company but rather an autonomy company. As for these new vehicles there is much sense in building modified versions of the Model 3/Y. Massive supply chain and manufacturing line share. I cannot imagine a reason one would sacrifice previous manufacturing floor space for a new model when Cybercab is on deck. In fact that new model/new platform is right in front of our eyes its called Cybercab"

"FSD Version XX Architecture & HW4 Version XX isnt just a XX larger model than Version XX. Its a different beast. See referenced article below. In addition to scaling up major architectural changes were introduced. Version XX includes many more expert blocks and likely an updated router for selecting among them with improved temporal context for maintaining continuity across (faster) inference cycles. Additionally this allows Version XX to better manage context changes effectively operating as a state machine when required (for example when navigating parking garage gates). Training also"

"Understand the reality of v14 'Mad Max' mode. First it shows Teslas confidence in v14 that its been well tested internally and is miles safer than v13 (no pun intended). Second anyone paying attention should recognize that a computer can execute at-limit driving far better than a human. And Mad Max mode isnt even close to true at-limit driving. Theres simply no world where a human can process the possible list of dynamic objects XX times per second for collision avoidance"

"Come on @Apple you can do better. this is quite ridiculous. First image show X at the top this is clearly based on raw data. But then "Try these AI-Powered Apps" doesn't present X or Grok at all. REALLY And then we have "Top Apps Right Now". that seems like a curated list under "Essentials" (btw I really don't think Tinder is a f**king essential app). And then Essential News Apps and X is missing. Full stop. Consider the irony. Practically every news site embeds X links since news breaks on X first but somehow X is not an essential News App. Make it make sense @elonmusk was right. This is"

"When i don't know. How I can hazard a guess: FSD will take input via its context window some commands recognized by a separate module namely Grok. xAI's Grok will be the voice/command interface it will interpret the meaning of the command and pass some to FSD to process. For example "slow down" will be passed over to FSD to execute whereas "when will I arrive at my destination" will be pass to the general navigation/routing system"

"Early version XX thoughts. X. We have convergence. By convergence I mean version XX represents the convergence release where follow-on point releases will yield effectively the solution to the problem namely autonomous driving. Its clear. X. Tesla is nailing many last mile use case (e.g. parking gates etc.). This indicates to me that we are solid on #1. You don't chase the feature tail without the core being solid. X. Robotaxi will scale out on a version XX release. This means removal of the safety rider. When precisely this happens is largely immaterial (e.g. could be 14.3). X. Version 14"

"In the world of auto the unusual will happen: the AV will kill ICE. AV's (autonomous vehicles) will all be EV's. AV's will dominate miles driven in coming years. Private vehicle ownership will fall AV's will replace at the low-end and EV's will dominate at the mid/high-end. Its time to measure EV penetration by miles not ownership of units. 'auto' will be synonymous with 'autonomy'"

"Cybercab is built to be a robot. Will there be a variant of this vehicle sold with driver controls No. This vehicle was purpose-built for autonomy and Robotaxi service. Every element of its design reflects that intent. It operates at roughly XXX miles per kWh of efficiency requiring specialized motors. The vehicles top speed is limited to XX mph its not a consumer-grade vehicle. It uses a reduced battery system to minimize weight resulting in limited range. It features custom low-cost wheels and tires no mirrors (side or rear) and no rear window for visibility. Charging is wireless-only"

"Autonomy the future of auto There is something truly transformational coming to the automotive industry a disruption that will redefine what an automobile is at the most fundamental level. The last time the industry saw a disruption of this magnitude was over a century ago at the start when the internal combustion engine and assembly line manufacturing reshaped human mobility. Since then the industry has advanced but only incrementally better engines smoother transmissions improved safety and other refinements. Progress yes. But evolution not revolution. The electric vehicle (EV) has been the"

"Autonomy the future of auto The future of autonomy will be catalyzed by Teslas Cybercab. When people begin seeing this vehicle operating in cities from San Francisco to Phoenix Las Vegas Dallas Miami and New York and soon their own it will be clear that autonomy has arrived. For most this will be their first direct encounter with a truly autonomous machine. Its hard to predict the future unless you focus on the builders (those that do not those who talk). Thats why Tesla and its leader Elon Musk stand apart. Tesla builds relentlessly toward the future it envisions: a rational endpoint where"

"Autonomy the future of auto Let's predict some potential future states in an autonomous world. Cities: Robotaxis will dominate urban mobility to such a degree that many cities will eventually prohibit user-driven vehicles (except for commercial or specialty use) from entering downtown cores. Street parking will vanish replaced by dynamic pickup and drop-off zones optimized for autonomous fleets. Parking garages will become obsolete and repurposed. The city will become more green. Highways: On highways the shift will be equally transformative. HOV lanes will evolve into autonomy lanes where"

"AWS outages are nothing new. Ive lived through about a dozen. I was going to post a silly meme but perhaps a story would be better. Heres my favorite AWS outage story one that almost cost me my job (sort of). During the fall of 2017 I was giving a demo to Rivians Board of Directors and key investors. Every major team was showing off their progress so far but only my team had a dependency on AWS. At the time we were bootstrapping the entire software-defined architecture of the vehicle. We had prototype displays ECUs and a lot of very fragile (but very cool) software. There wasnt even a running"

"I think this will happen but I expect the 1st instance of this to appear within the Tesla fleet. Tesla will establish a protocol which likely includes a cloud (central) component and then perhaps it will be standardized (opened) to others. V2V seems less likely due to lack of any specific RF model so I expect it to run through the cloud. That said I do not believe the old gov't V2X proposal will ever yield results"

"Tesla's Megapack is an unlock for data center power. The demand for this product is huge. xAI has deployed XXX Tesla Megapack battery-energy storage units at its Colossus (and Colossus 2) supercomputer facility in Memphis. Each Megapack stores XXX MWh of energy. Power is fed through the Megapacks: Sources-Megapacks-Data Center They are used to manage outages and demand surges buffering sudden/instant spikes in power usage so the infrastructure remains stable even when the grid or other sources cant instantly scale up. They also act as backup power helping reduce reliance on natural gas"
