“@WholeMarsBlog Most people still have no idea. FSD is the most important software release of any kind in a very long time.”
“@Teslaconomics My favorite video of Starship so far! Great shot when the flame points right at the camera.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Please advise people to be wary of margin loans. Tesla has always been a high variability stock, often with no obvious rhyme or reason. We are confident about long-term value creation, but cannot control the manic-depressive nature of the stock market.”
“@WholeMarsBlog FSD 11.3 is close to limited release. Just drove it through SF & LA yesterday. Probably 11.3.2 is able to go wide.”
“Worth mentioning that switching to ultra hard, cold-rolled stainless steel for Starship is what led me to make Cybertruck out of it too”
“@WholeMarsBlog @karpathy Andrej will always be welcome at Tesla”
“@WholeMarsBlog I stand by my prediction that, if Tesla executes extremely well over the next 5 years, that the long term value could exceed Apple and Aramco combined”
“@heydave7 @WholeMarsBlog @WSJ WSJ has run so many bs hit pieces on me and Tesla I’ve lost count! It’s embarrassing for them, frankly. They once wrote an article saying FBI was about to arrest me, so I called FBI to ask what’s up and they said WSJ article was total bs. Just more shortseller fud.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Tesla Megapack (and Powerwall) will make a massive difference to achieving a sustainable energy future for Earth!”
“@grimnut @Tesla @WholeMarsBlog @DirtyTesla Haha”
“@WholeMarsBlog Tesla Fremont team is kicking a**!”
“@WholeMarsBlog The head of Saudi PIF committed unequivocally to take Tesla private with me, as witnessed by the Tesla CFO and several others. That is why I said funding was secured.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Tesla will spend around $10B this year in combined training and inference AI, the latter being primarily in car. Any company not spending at this level, and doing so efficiently, cannot compete.”
“@WholeMarsBlog We could’ve made a 600 mile Model S 12 months ago, but that would’ve made the product worse imo, as 99.9% of time you’d be carrying unneeded battery mass, which makes acceleration, handling & efficiency worse. Even our 400+ mile range car is more than almost anyone will use.”
“@FonsDK @WholeMarsBlog @jasondebolt @SawyerMerritt @teslaownersSV @forwardcap @farzyness @garyblack00 Reaching volume production & achieving positive cash flow is insanely hard”
“@Teslarati We’re going to try landing Starship on the moon with enough propellant to return to Earth”
“@WholeMarsBlog Not intentional! We just wanted to show that you could theoretically convert the entire US vehicle fleet to electric using only the lithium in Nevada, a single state. Tesla will do lithium mining only as needed. We also found a way to extract lithium using NaCl (table salt).”
“@WholeMarsBlog Sucks that I had to sell so much Tesla stock to do so (sigh)”
“@WholeMarsBlog Ships to Tesla employees tomorrow, then progressively wider as confidence grows. We test as much as possible in simulation and with QA drivers, but reality is vastly more complex.”
“@WholeMarsBlog All US cars that are capable of FSD will be enabled for a one month trial this week”
“To activate the Model X holiday performance, just type holidays or ModelXmas after pressing the logo. Also, Mars. https://t.co/8Cy7YPlECX”
“@WholeMarsBlog Tesla is technically a car like an iPhone is technically a phone”
“@kchau @Tesla @WholeMarsBlog @SawyerMerritt Glad they’re ok”
“@WholeMarsBlog As mentioned earlier, v11.4.1 has major architectural improvements. It’s actually much more than a point release. Should arguably be v12.0, but that’s reserved for when FSD is fully AI from video in to control out.”
“@WholeMarsBlog 😂 Once Tesla fully solves autonomy and has Optimus in volume production, anyone still holding a short position will be obliterated. Even Gates.”
“@WholeMarsBlog That’s where we get most of our lithium. Also, whereas phone batteries make heavy use of cobalt in cathode, Tesla uses primarily nickel, which is trickier, but has better energy density (range). Iron cathode cells are now competitive for stationary packs & mid range cars.”
“@TeslaOwnersEBay @Kristennetten @RationalEtienne @EvaFoxU @JohnnaCrider1 @TeslaChillMode @CodingMark @Model3Owners @WholeMarsBlog @AustinTeslaClub I’m trying to set a good example! Population collapse is a much bigger problem than people realize and that’s just for Earth. Mars has a great need for people, seeing as population is currently zero. Humans are the custodians of other life on Earth. Let us bring life to Mars!”
“@MightyTesla @SamTalksTesla @ElonsWorld @Nikola_Truth @WholeMarsBlog @RenataKonkoly @stevenmarkryan @vincent13031925 @HyperChangeTV @TeslaPodcast Hell of a ride!”
“@WholeMarsBlog Tesla opex is embarrassingly high imo!”
“@JowuaLife @WholeMarsBlog @DirtyTesLa Glad he’s finally seen the light 😂”
“@WholeMarsBlog HW4 software will lag HW3 by at least another six months, as our focus needs to be on getting FSD on HW3 working super well and provided internationally.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Tesla China rocks!”
“@WholeMarsBlog This variant of the Model Y doesn’t start production in the US until the end of next year. Might not ever, given the advent of self-driving in America.”
“@DimaZeniuk @Tesla @WholeMarsBlog @dami_kolz @Kristennetten @1stMarsColonist @melaniemadri @daelmor @RationalEtienne @EvaFoxU @AstroJordy @28delayslater It is an honor to work with such talented engineers”
“@WholeMarsBlog We need to predict what pedestrians will do based on their behavior, including limb angle & direction of sight. FSD currently sees all pedestrians as cuboids, so is overly cautious. Also, diffusion seems to be more compute-efficient than transformers for vision.”
“@Teslarati @RDAnglePhoto First orbital stack of Starship should be ready for flight in a few weeks, pending only regulatory approval”
“@WholeMarsBlog Based on feedback received, we will drop mobile connector price to $200 & make it easy to order with car. Note, mobile connector is not needed if you have a Tesla wall connector or to use Superchargers. Recommend installing Tesla wall connector well before car arrives.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Indeed I did. However, I also think that Tesla has the potential to be the most valuable company ever. When Tesla’s market cap, making sustainable energy products, exceeds that of Aramco, producing fossil fuels, you know the future will be good for Earth.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Take away the subsidies. It will only help Tesla. Also, remove subsidies from all industries!”
“@GailAlfarATX @JohnnaCrider1 @WholeMarsBlog @TeslaOwnersEBay @RationalEtienne @EvaFoxU @Boxabl I’ve actually been living in a ~$50k house in south Texas for past 2 years, not Boxabl (cool product tho). Feels more homey to live in a small house.”
“@teslaownersSV @heydave7 @WholeMarsBlog @WSJ Call them out on it, I guess. WSJ is supposed to have a high standard for journalism and, right now, they are way sub tabloid. WSJ should be running stories that actually matter to their readers and have solid factual basis, not third-party random hearsay.”
“@WholeMarsBlog They have no idea how hard FSD is. Only path to success imo is hardcore real-world AI software with dedicated NN inference acceleration ASICs in car, multibillion dollar NN training supercluster and 10+ billion miles of vehicle data. Good luck.”
“@AustinTeslaClub @RoschetzkyP @Tesla @TeslaNY @TeslaOwnersEBay @TeslaForThe_Win @jchybow @1stMarsColonist @EvaFoxU @heydave7 @gailalfa1 Also lasts much longer than normal roofs & is able to withstand hail & other medium-sized impacts”
“@WholeMarsBlog FSD V11 rolled out at 11:11pm Pacific”
“@WholeMarsBlog I had too many bottles of Teslaquila!”
“@TeslaHype @WholeMarsBlog Yeah, the character assassination attacks have reached a new level this year, but the articles are all nothing-burgers. I work crazy hours, so there just isn’t much time for shenanigans. None of the key people involved in these alleged wrongdoings were even interviewed!”
“@IheartTesla @alex_avoigt @mike_zimon @WholeMarsBlog döner kebab”
“@WholeMarsBlog Three significant improvements to FSD will roll out roughly every two weeks. Should be really shining bright by late April or early May.”
“@stillgray @teslaownersSV @WholeMarsBlog Absolutely”
