IIRC Musk wanted the auto industry to standardize on an "Open AI" for autopilot, to waive liability and build consensus around ethical decisions.

  Maybe he should start with standardizing his charger
  • brightball 4y ago
    Industry is too early IMO. There’s a huge need to innovate on rapid recharge. I’d worry standardizing would negatively impact this.
    • selectodude 4y ago
      Seeing as right now there are two connectors, Tesla's and literally everybody else, I'm not sure where innovation is necessary.
      • brightball 4y ago
        That we still don’t have rapid recharge close to gas?
        • engineer_22 4y ago
          I dont know... high voltage and gas fumes dont sound like they mix.

            Well done sir.

        * literally everybody else _per continent_ please, also CCS is an abomination of a charging port. If you would let the CCS consortium design a megawatt charger like Tesla‘s V4, mere mortals would probably not even able to lift it.

    They are doing that: https://www.tesla.com/blog/opening-north-american-charging-standard https://www.tesla.com/blog/opening-north-american-charging-s...

      Does this mean I can buy an adapter and use a supercharger?

      I feel like they must've had the relevant XKCD* framed somewhere when they came up with that plan. * https://xkcd.com/927/ https://xkcd.com/927/
