“@Teslarati The source info is incorrect. Starship & Raptor development is being done out of our HQ in Hawthorne, CA. We are building the Starship prototypes locally at our launch site in Texas, as their size makes them very difficult to transport.”

“@iliketeslas @WholeMarsBlog Other cars change prices constantly and often by wide margins via dealer markups and manufacturer/dealer incentives. Only a fool thinks the “MSRP” is the real price. Tesla prices must change frequently in order to match production with demand.”
“@WholeMarsBlog We are focusing on just Model Y with HW4 for the initial release. Make sure that works well, then broaden. This has the 5X increase in parameters. HW3 would run the same parameter count, but requires extra work to optimize the code.”
“@TeslaOwnersEBay @AustinTeslaClub @Kristennetten @Tesla @TeslaChillMode @CodingMark @EvaFoxU @RationalEtienne @28delayslater @WholeMarsBlog 🤣🤣”
“@truth_tesla @zshahan3 @garyblack00 @WholeMarsBlog @SawyerMerritt Biden is a UAW 🧦 puppet”
“@teslaownersSV @WholeMarsBlog Our primary challenge is affordability. Creating an expensive truck is relatively easy. If it is extremely hard to do so for Tesla, despite our much greater economies of scale & better technology, then it is damn near impossible for others.”
“@rhemrajani9 @WholeMarsBlog @DavidSacks @JLinWins @BlueMoonTrades @MomAngtrades @DisruptorStocks @RinainDC @valueandtime @EvasTeslaSPlaid @Barchart @jasondebolt 🤣”
“@WholeMarsBlog I was able to do several zero takeover drives around Austin last night using random map pin drops (no Tesla has ever done these routes)”
“@WholeMarsBlog We believe version 12 is ready for supervised FSD in LHD countries. RHD will take a bit longer.”
“@teslaownersSV @WholeMarsBlog No, they still refuse to explain how they calculate that 5% of daily users are fake/spam! Very suspicious.”
“@WholeMarsBlog FSD is best in Bay Area, given engineering mostly lives there, but rest of country will soon be at that level”
“@SamTalksTesla @teslaownersSV @PPathole @RationalEtienne @stevenmarkryan @Kristennetten @WholeMarsBlog Pretty wild, considering that Exxon was the most valuable company in the word when we went public 10 years ago”
“@WholeMarsBlog I think there is a >0% chance Tesla could be the biggest company”
“@TeslaClubIN @WholeMarsBlog @MKBHD Next year for sure”
“@CJ_NFA @WholeMarsBlog @WR4NYGov @Teslarati @stevenmarkryan @28delayslater @garyblack00 @GerberKawasaki @JosephVVallace @SawyerMerritt 🤣🤣”
“@StianWalgermo @Tesla @ARKInvest @WholeMarsBlog @alex_avoigt @Teslarati @TeslaPodcast @mortenlund89 @Kristennetten Norway FTW 🇳🇴 💕”
“@WholeMarsBlog A lot of people thought Tesla stock would collapse as the tax credits came to an end this month. Guess not.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Cells & FSD are massive, the rest is just beauty & romance … but life is empty without those last two”
“@GailAlfarATX @POTUS @Tesla @JohnnaCrider1 @SawyerMerritt @WholeMarsBlog @teslaownersSV @TeslaOwnersEBay @Kristennetten @live_munro @BillyM2k @Grimezsz 🔥🔥”
“@WholeMarsBlog Tesla AI, both hardware & software, is deeply underestimated”
“@WholeMarsBlog This should be clear to anyone who has experienced the FSD beta evolution. Self-driving requires solving a major part of real-world AI, so it’s an insanely hard problem, but Tesla is getting it done. AI Day will be great.”
“@StianWalgermo @Tesla @WholeMarsBlog Wow!”
“@WhatsupFranks @TeslaGong Currency is already digital! Decentralized crypto is an attempt to wrest power of currency dilution (pernicious form of taxation) & capital controls from governments. That said, I sure hope the cure is better than the disease! Mars/AI are essential to passing the great filter/s.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Most people have no idea, even though there are so many FSD progress videos posted. Munro understood right away. There will be a gap before the next release, but then it will be a step change better. Tesla is solving a major real-world AI problem.”
“@WholeMarsBlog @rocker_261 @SawyerMerritt Training compute for Tesla is relatively small compared to inference compute, as the latter scales linearly with size of fleet. Perhaps the best way to think about it is in terms of power consumption. When the Tesla fleet reaches 100M vehicles, peak power consumption of AI…”
“@WholeMarsBlog Those are the biggest factors. ~80% of Tesla’s value will be Optimus.”
“@WholeMarsBlog It was a mistake to try to use the Elise. In the end, only ~5% of the Elise parts ended up being used. Tesla Roadster is a totally different car.”
“@WholeMarsBlog @ConsumerReports Tesla is half a decade ahead or more”
“@WholeMarsBlog @SawyerMerritt @Tesla He doesn’t get enough negative feedback. This platform is great for that :).”
“@_opencv_ It’s all part of broader vision/strategy 😂 Starship 10 is launching on Sunday. Grok 5 begins training next month. Tesla Autopilot V14 also next month. Long-term strategy is compelling.”
“@WholeMarsBlog FSD will soon exceed 10,000 miles between critical interventions, which is a year of driving for most people”
“@WholeMarsBlog We must focus on FSD for the other 99% of the fleet. Cybertruck FSD is a few months away.”
“@_SFTahoe @tslamoon1 @WholeMarsBlog That would be nice”
“@Teslarati @13ericralph31 @StarshipGazer As backdrops go, this is a good one”
“@WholeMarsBlog Then HW5, which has been renamed to AI5, in the second half of next year. The Tesla AI5 computer has ~10X the capability of HW4 computer and Tesla makes the whole software stack.”
“@WholeMarsBlog @jimfarley98 @mrlevine Just drove FSD Beta 9.3 from Pasadena to LAX. Much improved!”
“@WholeMarsBlog The build I’m driving right now is almost there. FSD 10 will blow your mind.”
“@WholeMarsBlog They will switch from claiming that Tesla self-driving is fake to Tesla self-driving is unfairly good”
“@WholeMarsBlog The hands of Optimus”
“@TheTeslaBull @BLKMDL3 @S3XYstarship @IWill_Travel @AOC Based on past experience, about 12 to 18 months. Companies that are inherently negative cash flow (ie value destroyers) need to die, so that they stop consuming resources.”
“@flcnhvy Starship steel decision came first. We were going to use titanium skins for Cybertruck, but cold-rolled 30X stainless is much stronger.”
“@wholemars Tesla is smooth as butter”
“@WholeMarsBlog To be fair, investors are giving us significant credit for achieving self-driving, given that Tesla’s valuation/production is very high compared to other automakers”
“@SawyerMerritt Cybertrucks get preferential parking, as they look much more futuristic than normal cars and are poetically aligned with the stainless steel of Starship”
“RT @teslaownersSV: Starship will make us multi planetary https://t.co/S9bgLgRsh5”
“RT @teslaownersSV: The starship is the largest flying object ever made, and it was able to be caught by chopsticks https://t.co/iMkJAWGsOz”
“@doge_southern @SamTwits @TeslaOwnersEBay @Kristennetten @RationalEtienne @EvaFoxU @JohnnaCrider1 @TeslaChillMode @CodingMark @Model3Owners @WholeMarsBlog @AustinTeslaClub Next baby will be a girl”
“@WholeMarsBlog Would be cool to make a game using Tesla Sim that’s literally your city & neighborhood, down to skid marks on road & then inject fantasy/sci-fi elements”
“@WholeMarsBlog FSD releasing to Canada next week”
“@WholeMarsBlog @FutureJurvetson @Tesla @karpathy Bot is not directly on the path of accelerating a sustainable energy future, but it aspirationally improves the probability that the future is good”
