I guess SpaceX and Tesla have different policies https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1421325748158312458?lang... "Tesla policy is never to give in to false claims, even if we would lose, and never to fight tr

It is their problem. It is also Teslas problem given the mistakes their software makes and their misleading marketing

Watch the first few seconds of the video.

And also on the website on the most visible feature on that page suggest the person is only needing to sit in the driver's seat for legal reasons. This is absurdly misleading

I think philosophy without faith is nice but doesn't have the same benefits at all. I think what makes religious people happier is the strong sense of community and offloading some of their existential angst to a third party.

I've never had anything against religion and know it is good for my family but there's just no way I'll ever get over my skepticism so it's not a choice. I think most nonreligious people are the same

This is the gist of it. Though you have to dress it up in a million different ways, many if which he will offer ready to go on his Twitter.

That was to pay his taxes supposedly, so he still had an excuse. People might worry if he's just diversifying for its own sake

You can also for many years now preorder Cybertruck and Roadster which are just around the corner or pay $12k to turn your car into a robotaxi very soon I swear. How many years have they been about to use dojo? There's also just plain

Even if you think he'll have to pay that which from this tweet it seems he's going to try to dodge, he got to sell a lot of stock without anyone thinking he has any doubts on Tesla, which would cost a lot more than 1 billion

He delivers a lot of announcements for future projects.

I'm pretty sure he never intended to buy it to begin with. He was just using it as a convenient excuse to sell some TSLA

And are those Teslas self-driving?

If you like to gush over exciting announcements there's still Musk. Unfortunately it's been many years since his company actually built anything he announces

All of these events are dull. I don't see why WWDC get people any more hyped except that they have a lot more fans.

If it were actually better than humans, they'd likely accept it. After all Waymo and Cruise are already offering driverless rides.

Google has had great technical infrastructure and tooling from early on that makes it much easier for them to implement things than the competition. I think they got very very lucky snagging extremely competent early employees as the dotcom

All these other companies are just wasting their time because for 5+ years now, Teslas only require someone in the drivers seat for legal reasons (source: https://www.tesla.com/autopilot )

"for legal reasons". After all that is the only reason there is a driver according to tesla.com/autopilot. And that's 5 years old, so surely we should feel comfortable in the back seat by now besides the law

I didn't suggest it was corporate teams. But I think it was the competitions that led these companies to start working on it when they did and caused the startups to spawn and get funding.

But when they're effective it can be really effective. DARPA self-driving challenges really jump started that field for a few million dollars. Even if people were working on it already, the competitions got Sergey Brin and others obses

To diverge a little from most of the answers which are about making games or something useful, I had trouble getting going on ANYTHING with that advice. I think I only started actually coding when I looked at projecteuler.com just because t

This is significantly more than what the US has given Ukrainian military, which has been enough to stop the Russian military. Having used the Hololens I have a hard time believing it's that useful, or useful at all.

I guess the difference is you think they have more resources, more bright engineers, and I'm quite certain they don't. I'd guess Tesla has several times less engineers working on FSD than Waymo and making much lower salaries,

You are confusing speed of iteration with speed of announcements. There is a lot of stuff that happens, like research and process building, at a big "slow" company like Google that Tesla doesn't even realize is needed yet. Te

Noone could have known social media moderation could be hard! Just like in 2017 he had no way of knowing his cars wouldn't drive themselves cross country by 2018

Oof that's right up there with "The person in the driver's seat is only there for legal reasons" from the 5+ year old marketing video still featured on https://www.tesla.com/autopilot

If your job is to come up with banned words and they've stopped using the banned words, you've got to keep looking for more if you want to keep your job. I don't think anyone's real job at Google is to come up with the b

This is totally irrelevant but who spells it Moslems these days? Where are you from?
