Tesla Q2 2023 Earnings Call and Q&A Webcast -- Watch/Listen Here (5:30pm Eastern)

[FutureBoy]

XAI became a separate company from Tesla because the AI people he wanted didn't want to join a large established company. They preferred to be at a startup. So Elon created XAI to run himself so that they would have a startup to work at.

Dojo is a custom software stack.
Same with the inference system in the car.

We miss that they’re talking with a major OEM to license FSD?

And that they have reason to believe another OEM is developing castings for a vehicle?

For both my present bet’s on Ford

Tesla is starting to sound like it is headed to being the first multinational like the ones in the cyberpunk space:

Corporate power...the multinationals that shaped the course of human history...they had attained a kind of immortality. You couldn't kill (them) by assassinating a dozen key executives; there were others waiting to step up...access(ing) the vast banks of corporate memory.
--William Gibson, Neuromancer (1984)

If no other companies compete successfully, it will then be headed to be CHOAM.

Well no one said to hold. But a direct quote from Elon was: "I wouldn't sell Tesla."

Oh, there are others, I have a friend that works at Siemens. Pretty weird culture, but corpo.

Eyes off FSD question.

Elon self declares himself as the boy who cried FSD.

He once again thinks that FSD will be better than human by the end of this year. And that the price of FSD currently is actually a low price. Not a high price.

At this point I've had worse Uber drivers than FSD
