Tesla FSD is on a great path because of the bet Elon made in 2014 - every car Tesla produces needs to have the sensors and compute necessary for full self driving. Obviously it took 3 generations to get there, but it set the right constraints for the team to converge to a

If not obvious already- lidar isn’t going to solve visual scene understanding for you. You have to solve visual understanding at its core regardless. Same is true for anyone in robotics relying so heavily on depth sensors, and overhyped expensive hardware. Focus on solving

Incredible group. Twitter transition was an extremely chaotic period, having to make some hard decisions that kept paying dividends later on. Hoping to see the same with changes in federal agencies and regulations, it might seem chaotic at the beginning, but the upside can be

You get a massive cult following if you add 10s pause between critical phrases while speaking

All this recent immigration BS reminds me of this excellent post from Alexandr Wang. Talent should be the #1 input metric even for US immigration and jobs. Merit, Excellence and Intelligence. scale.com/blog/meritocra…

H1b and lottery systems are total shitshow. Make O1 Visa for Extraordinary Ability the common norm, streamline the process and let in large pool of high skilled immigrants purely based on merit. Donald J. Trump do a mic drop - actually appoint Sriram Krishnan for immigration policies too

Cool kids party with a quantum computer these days

MIT license? We have true “Open” AI right here.

Elon Musk 😂 And all this money is not about hyping AI, but is about building useful things for the real world!

i'm comically impressed that people are coping on deepseek by spewing bizarre conspiracy theories -- despite deepseek open-sourcing and writing some of the most detail oriented papers ever. read. replicate. compete. don't be salty, just makes you look incompetent.

Today I'm launching my new company General Agents and our first product. Introducing Ace: The First Realtime Computer Autopilot Ace is not a chatbot. Ace performs tasks for you. On your computer. Using your mouse and keyboard. At superhuman speeds!

Congrats Phil Duan Ashok Elluswamy . Very proud of AP team - long time dream coming to fruition

I would instead expect the folks at Waymo to leverage Gemini skillset, showcase how non-driving (internet) data transfers cleanly to handle long tails in driving and hence offset Tesla's fleet advantage. That's how BotCo is building autonomous robots to deploy them at scale

Some details on what are building at The Bot Company . Lot more to come. It’ll be absurd to enter a home in few years and not have a home robot taking care of majority of your chores

So zuck got a wake up call from Grok4 leaks and went batshit crazy on building MSL?

Very impressive. Not obvious to most - scaleable deployment of self driving cars or generalist robots is blocked on rapid iteration and evaluation across millions of scenarios. Great progress in the right direction
