@DrKnowItAll16 @OpenAI @Tesla Tesla has been able to do real-world video generation with accurate physics for about a year. It wasn’t super interesting, because all the training data came from the cars, so it just looks like video from a Tesla, albeit with a dynamically generated (not remembered) world.

Model 3 will be RWD, with dual motor AWD optional. Even RWD will have great traction on ice due to fast torque response of Tesla drivetrain.

@MeetLuis @WARREZ420 @WholeMarsBlog Rawlinson was never chief engineer. He arrived after Model S prototype was made, left before things got tough & was only ever responsible for body engineering, not powertrain, battery, software, production or design.

@SamTwits My true moral error was creating Tesla & SpaceX at same time, while avoiding general mgmt chores at Tesla (focusing only on product & engineering). Tried to have my cake & eat it too, which failed.

@tsrandall Incorrect. Pana cell lines at Giga are only at ~24GWh/yr & have been a constraint on Model 3 output since July. No choice but to use other suppliers for Powerwall/Powerpack cells. Tesla won’t spend money on more capacity until existing lines get closer to 35GWh theoretical.

@teslaownersSV @SamTwits He came damn close to killing Tesla through a combination of bad management decisions, driving out talented people, bad engineering, major blunders in supply chain & an elaborate deception about the true cost & schedule of the Tesla Roadster.

@DrKnowItAll16 @OpenAI @Tesla We have been short on training compute for FSD, so haven’t trained with other video, but certainly could. Will do it later this year when we have some spare capacity.

@tunguz Most large AI systems are currently extremely wasteful with how much energy is spent on data transfer (moving same bits around) vs compute. Tesla estimate is that at least an order of magnitude improvement is possible.
