The Dojo team left tesla to do their own ASIC. https://www.theverge.com/news/756706/tesla-dojo-team-shut-down-supercomputer https://www.theverge.com/news/756706

  Yeah, that was already almost 1 year after they were supposedly planning to have the top 5 compute ... The reality is they announced that as a pipe dream. Just like the FSD, Robotaxi, Optimus and 10 other projects that will never work - or more precisely, they will work but >10 years from now, and it won't be from Tesla but from a competitor.

    Add HLS to the list.

    I'm sure there is a Polymarket for you to bet against FSD that I use to drive 99% of the time.

      ?? Tesla have never manufactured a single car. They simply don’t exist. Just like those rockets that don’t exist. It’s all just CGI.
    • seanhunter 10mo ago
      You understand what the word “Full” means, right? It doesn’t mean 99%.
      • spullara 10mo ago
        lol
      • spullara 10mo ago
        Don’t know what to call it but coast to coast seems close enough to full for me. https://x.com/davidmoss/status/2006255297212358686 https://x.com/davidmoss/status/2006255297212358686

      Sure you do.
    • TheAlchemist 10mo ago
      One would be crazy to bet on that on Polymarket. They had a bet for Tesla Robotaxi rollout before end of 2025 and it resolved to YES. So it must be like your FSD - Tesla is apparently already operating a general public access autonomus Robotaxi, maybe even 50% of the US population like the CEO said.
      • spullara 10mo ago
        so you were wrong and lost or what? they are operating a general public access autonomous robotaxi in sf, dunno what you are on about
        • TheAlchemist 10mo ago
          In SF ? That would be illegal, as Tesla don't even have the permit to do that: https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/vehicle-industry-services/autonomous-vehicles/autonomous-vehicle-testing-permit-holders/ https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/vehicle-industry-services/auto... They only can test with a driver for now. Can you take a ride in this Robotaxi and film it, so we can all see ? I'm always very curious about why people argue some obvious lies like that about Tesla. Invested ? Paid shills ? Just Musk distortion field ?
          • spullara 10mo ago
            if the driver doesn't do anything what then? is it driving itself or not? as someone that gets driven around by my car whenever it is on the road, i hate that people like you act like it doesn't exist.
            • TheAlchemist 10mo ago
              Nobody disputes that the car can drive itself 99% of the time. It can and it's a great system (well, opinions diverge, I mostly agree). But it's very far from a Robotaxi - for any reasonable person, Robotaxi means unsupervised rides, which Tesla is not currently doing at all. And they argue pretty strongly in court that any talk about unsupervised is just 'corporate puffery'. This is similar to why one needs to keep an eye on todlers. 99% they are fine, but that 1% of time they will do something very dangerous.

      I don't personally want to get into that kind of betting, but in theory... If I had bet that purchasable Teslas wouldn't have level 3 or level 4 driving by 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 I would have won every single one of those bets. FSD is improving, but they finally put "supervised" in the name for a reason. It's a feature-packed level 2. That doesn't meet the bar.
      • fragmede 10mo ago
        3, no?
        • Dylan16807 10mo ago
          Level 3 lets you ignore the road until the car beeps at you, at which point you have a few seconds to get ready to take over. FSD is level 2. You have to be constantly on the lookout.

  I suspect the departure was mutual... The team didn't seem on track to deliver anything workable.
