IDK, that Tesla exit from freeway WTF happened. It’s a mystery, as crazy as the LEXUS crash when that made no sense either. Lexus drove the media narrative that the driver carpet pad stuck the gas pedal to the floor. Lexus never retracted their assertion after finding the electrical fault. The...

Did it. That’s the narrative released for media reporting. Or did AP do the steering? That’s a material difference. One that separates the common cruise control narrative people are familiar with, from the AP paradigm. AP I’m not even familiar, much less expert. Cruise control all of us are...

@charliemagpie sees Magic deciding. I agreed the state of the art AI magic is humanly imperceptible. Its called technology - blackbox artificial intelligence. And the decisions are inherently imperceptible to humans. You don’t see a line when AI has decided to cross one, as we humans see in a...

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” ― Arthur C. Clarke FSD is blackbox AI. Similar to LaMDA there is no analyzing the technology and its decisions. Only behavior, after the fact, is very similar, same as magic. I have a personal trigger with deciding since...

Export restrictions are attached to dual-use technologies. SteveJobs famously redesigned his CUBE computer into a pizza box form factor. It was a remarkable pivot requiring electrical component ”squishing” to fit inside a pizza sized takeout box. Set for worldwide distribution the USA slapped a...

GOS? Civilian? Like drone? It‘s inevitable, by extension for .mil. Once Tesla achieves FSD, it has .mil knocking at its door, saving the necessity of putting men and women in harms way driving supply trucks in-convoy. That’s Tesla scale economies, it can meet.

Does puppy mode turn on the cabin monitor cam and let you speak to your puppy.

Why not approach obstacle negotiation using PUREvision? Its technology on-board free, as in free beer. Actually, you bought it for just such a party! Add underside peekaboo view cams, let Tesla do its magic inside the cockpit; the monitor projects route, labels obstacles and Tesla Safety First...

Begs redesign to avoid road deitrus, mud and frozen snow accumulation. Relocate to a cleaner access for everyone not dressed in overhauls, gloves and scraper in the leg pocket. Reversed door swing down at leading edge while better; still would be a dirty gloves and rag routine kludgefixe.

I get you see redundant dollars hanging off the side of the structural box you describe which are Tesla’s profits driving away for good. But 30”X” is the value proposition inherent in the whole Tesla Cybertruck product sale and reason d’être. The 3mm S.S. remains structural to the integrity of...

One of the more interesting unanswered questions - sail plane stowage. It will be telling how Tesla wants Cybertruck to evolve in its choice how it utilizes its exoskeleton for consumer value-adds. Sail storage opportunity exists. Structurally, not the whole outer skin and no-way encompassing...

Not surprised Cybertruck carries the same or similar anti-scalping clause.

Were Utah still my home, future considerations would be a selection criteria, second only to first principles. In SLC-Provo Valley inversion kills Solar future options - Go to 1st Principles. Outside Wasatch front microclimates drive Solar futures - Go to Options Southern Utah Solar rules - Go...

At most, Cybertruck will FOB PUREvision for “Follow Me” mode. Tesla will not surrender to iPhone walking a Cybertruck, ‘cuz optics. And FOB Follow Me sure makes going thru locked gates a piece of cake, feeding hay to critters in winter and beats walking back after dropping a tractor off at the...

Did you miss Elon calling out that GigaFactories are a massive money burning machine right now? https://www.cnbc.com/2022/06/23/musk-says-tesla-berlin-and-austin-factories-losing-billions-of-dollars.html In the same breath, “bankruptcy” was used as real if the supply chain isn’t working and...

SteveJobs is instructive having spent a decade in unix with Berkeley Std Distr many, many options. SteveJobs created NeXTstep UI to simplify those unix options. Still the base level knowledge exceeded human. NeXTSTEP UX was automated eliminating the “human” requirement merely taking orders and...

Right? BTW what did you do in the back of your V-dub? LOL

BMW invented fit & trim setting a bar high for cars back in the 80’s. Newer paints, new spray booths and a host of chemistry underneath achieve a factory finish literally God-like perfection in gloss and symmetry even for matt finishes. Teslas need be judged on those merits. Cybertrucks…are...

Yeah, No. Cybertruck “Locked” assertion does not equate to GOLD MASTER in the software world where the pressing into discs is the final last remaining step. Locked tells that Elon has signed off on the vehicle specs and approved full engineering going forward(Damn the torpedos!). SO Tesla are...

First principles, CA rolling stops at stop signed intersections are legal for RH turns in California. Second, cars intermixed that behave differently from human operated car behavior itself creates a hazard. Rolling stops were legalized in recognition that CA is one vast developed space. Full...
