“@WholeMarsBlog I think we may have figured out some aspects of AGI. The car has a mind. Not an enormous mind, but a mind nonetheless.”

“@WhatsupFranks … while simultaneously leading Tesla to be the world’s most valuable car company (Model Y is the selling vehicle on Earth) and SpaceX to be the world’s most valuable space company (~80% of all payload to orbit last year). Whatever I’m doing, I should obviously keep doing it!”

“@WholeMarsBlog It is increasingly clear that all roads lead to AGI. Tesla is building an extremely compute-efficient mini AGI for FSD.”

“@SamTalksTesla @RationalEtienne @thirdrowtesla @wholemarslog @28delayslater @vincent13031925 @teslaownersSV Haha true”

“@JasonDanheiser @WholeMarsBlog @28delayslater Self-driving cars & useful humanoid robots require a sophisticated understanding of reality. I am increasingly convinced that they are on the path to solving AGI. Should AGI be solved? I don’t know, but humanity is moving rapidly in this direction whether I like it or not.”

“@karpathy @WholeMarsBlog Same”

“@DolllarPo Service turns on next month, which is same time required to deliver a user terminal, so order now at https://t.co/Q1VvqV58aK http://Starlink.com”

“@tobyliiiiiiiiii @Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight Might just catch the ship with the launch tower, same as booster”

“@IlyaRosenberg @Caspar_Stanley @Erdayastronaut @SpaceX @SuperHeavyBN3 They are now the same (LOX below CH4). Ox is 3.5 times heavier than fuel, so makes sense to have it lower.”

“@SawyerMerritt @WholeMarsBlog Model X is an extremely difficult car to build. Most complex passenger car ever. Limiting factor is interior trim.”

“@Model3Owners @TrungTPhan It took an utterly insane amount of work to move the SpaceX & Tesla success probabilities above ~zero”

“Most telling is that the SpaceX Propulsion CTO switched from driving a Porsche 911 Turbo S to a Model X”

“@WholeMarsBlog I once did a road trip across most of US with 2 adults & 5 kids in a Model S!”

“RT @SpaceX: Starship’s Raptor engines ignite during hot-staging separation. Super Heavy is boosting back towards its splashdown site https:…”

“@WholeMarsBlog We should change that so the yoke is stationary, as it is not mechanically coupled to the wheels. Same goes for when it is on Autopilot.”

“@ID_AA_Carmack The right way to grade any technology is not comparing it to competitors (too easy), but comparing it to the limit of physics. That is, for example, how we grade Starlink latency, which shows that there is still a *lot* of room for improvement! Same for $/ton to Mars.”

“Researchers at @NASA propose using @SpaceX Falcon/Dragon for Mars sample return mission http://t.co/U6LNKyF4Jr http://news.yahoo.com/red-dragon-mars-sample-return-mission-could-launch-114405239.html”

“@WholeMarsBlog Both TSMC and Samsung are great companies. It is an honor to work with them.”

“RT @DimaZeniuk: SpaceX launched 138 rockets in 2024, averaging one every 2.6 days https://t.co/z8MzTC6YhQ”

“@WholeMarsBlog Eventually, you will probably be able to upload a good approximation of your memories & mind state to “the cloud” with the ability to download it to a humanoid robot. You obviously won’t be quite the same as you are today.”

“RT @Gwynne_Shotwell: From learning to land a rocket to flying the same booster 30 times! Congrats to the @SpaceX team for continuing to ma…”

“@PPathole Booster has 2 pins for lifting & catching, although maybe it’s better to modify grid fins to take more load. Something will need to flip out from leeward side of top of ship to do same there. Maybe it’s part of fwd flaps, but prob not. Diff solutions for diff load paths.”

“@Erdayastronaut @Blamblas @latimes @SpaceX @blueorigin Exactly. Mars propellant production will combine atmospheric CO2 & water (ice) to make CH4 (methane) & O2. Will do same on Earth long-term. Short-term, each Falcon flight uses roughly same fuel mass as a 747 flight. Falcon is ~71% oxygen & Starship is ~78%, so mostly not fuel.”

“@wintonARK @SciGuySpace We’re still going to Mars and the timeframe for building a self-growing city there is still about the same at 20 to 30 years. It’s possible that revenue from lunar activities might actually accelerate Mars.”

“@Erdayastronaut Hot-staging gives the best performance, but needs to be done without blowing up the booster!”

“RT @SpaceX: SpaceX shares the same goal as NASA of returning to the Moon with a permanent presence as expeditiously and safely as possible.…”

“@Erdayastronaut @i_gvf @SciGuySpace Exactly. Chartering a dedicated 747 flight around the world costs less than buying a small, single engine turboprop plane. In the same way, a giant reusable rocket flight is way cheaper than a tiny expendable rocket that can be used only once.”

“@RGVaerialphotos Imagine seeing this view on your way to Mars ✨”

“@Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight @BocaChicaGal @TheFavoritist The ship rings are thicker than they need to be (for now), so same thickness works for booster & ship for hoop stress. Booster lower tank will have longitudinal stiffeners to prevent buckling.”

“@sampullara @Starlink Agreed. I guess Starlink could offer that directly too.”

“Model S product call at 11 today. Rocket discussion at noon on Monday.”

“RT @spacesudoer: Starship hot-staging is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. @elonmusk https://t.co/1oa7wa7S2n”

“@MarcusHouse @artzius All Raptors on booster, whether fixed or gimbaling, would be the same. 33*230 gets ~7600 tons of thrust & T/W of ~1.5.”

“@thejackbeyer @MarcusHouse @artzius Center engines on ship will be same as booster engines. This is basically Raptor 2. Raptor Vacuum would be only variant. Tbd as to whether to commonize R-Vac with Raptor 2 (more thrust), keep same or tighten throat (more Isp). Adding 3 more R-Vac to ship with max Isp maybe …”

“@WholeMarsBlog Same 😂”

“@WholeMarsBlog @PPathole Yeah. Display will also soon render Teslas specifically as their model & color instead of as a generic sedan/SUV. Has potential for a fun punch buggy sort of game.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Asking a Magic 8-Ball whether we should change rates is ACTUALLY better than the Fed!”

“@Erdayastronaut @ValkyrieBaron11 @flcnhvy @NASASpaceflight A fully & rapidly reusable orbital rocket is fundamental to extending life beyond Earth. Propellant cost is roughly a 1000th of vehicle cost (unless using a foolish propellant). Same principle as cars, planes, boats, etc.”

“@DJSnM @RocketTenor @NASA @SpaceX @Space_Station @Commercial_Crew For cargo missions, propulsive land landing should be no problem. Doesn’t have same safety criticality as crew.”

“@StarofElysium @SamTalksTesla @RationalEtienne @chrish7985 @rlyrlysryDave I don’t have an “emerald mine”, nor was I given free money from anyone, inheritance or otherwise. Ashlee Vance interviewed hundreds of people. Ask him. https://t.co/M63NjiKkw2 https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2020-05-22/elon-musk-speaks-frankly-on-coronavirus-spacex-and-rage-tweets”
