“@pmnordkvist @Tesla Something like this could work”
“@ValaAfshar @Tesla Tesla Giga Shanghai team has done amazing work!”
“Working on using existing Tesla radar by itself (decoupled from camera) w temporal smoothing to create a coarse point cloud, like lidar”
“SpaceX and Tesla rated most meaningful work in high tech. Also, most stressful, but that goes with the territory. https://t.co/y8s4UdMF5z https://x.com/dfjsteve/status/705925529388453888”
“@ElectrekCo @FredericLambert What’s cool is that it was driven across the country alone (no escort or any accompanying vehicles), using the existing Tesla Supercharger network and an extension cord”
“@Sofiaan @Tesla Team is in fact working hard! They just confirmed 10.2 is good to go tomorrow night.”
“@kimpaquette Just meeting with Larry Ellison to seek some advice. Back working on Tesla end of quarter tomorrow.”
“@Gfilche @Tesla It still needs more work imo, but we can probably widen the beta a little next month”
“@ID_AA_Carmack Tesla has done so much that would be considered “AI research breakthroughs”, but we are laser-focused on making it work, rather than crowing about breakthroughs. Having a large fleet is only one piece of the puzzle. Plenty of other car companies produce way more cars than…”
“@JoannMuller @alanohnsman @Forbes The Tesla board has done incredible work overseeing the largest value creation in the auto industry in 100+ years, despite many setbacks. Tesla owes its very existence to this board!”
“@ray4tesla Did my best to warn people that LiDAR isn’t optimal for cars. Roads are designed for biological neural nets & eyes, so digital neural nets & cameras will work best. I say this even though Dragon uses LiDAR for docking with Station, so I don’t intrinsically hate that technology.”
“@SawyerMerritt Yeah, I was running on very little sleep for several days due to extreme work requirements. Worth noting that Tesla was very close to bankruptcy in 2017.”
“@TeslaSynopsis It is already on a lot of cars, but, given that is a completely new architecture, we are doing extra testing. It works very well in California, but needs more training for heavy precipitation areas.”
“@techAU We’re working on accelerating RHD Model Y production. Didn’t expect demand to be so high!”
“@Jason Thanks Jason! Super proud to work with such great teams at SpaceX, Tesla, Neuralink and Boring!!”
“@BrianRoemmele Slightly different versions of the Tesla AI5 chip will be made at TSMC and Samsung simply because they translate designs to physical form differently, but the goal is that our AI software works identically. We will have samples and maybe a small number of units in 2026, but high”
“@Teslaconomics @Tesla_AI Best was working with such a great team of AI hardware & software engineers! It was more fun than going to parties on Saturdays by far. Least awesome was that we had to make several design concessions to move fast, but were able to finish tapeout 45 days ahead of schedule. AI6”
“@GailAlfarATX @Tesla Tesla is working hard to provide more Megapacks for grid stabilization”
“@Teslarati Amazing results by @Panasonic at Tesla Gigafactory Nevada! Very much appreciate extreme hard work it took to achieve this result. Together with Pana Japan cell plants, Tesla/Pana partnership is producing ~60% of global EV battery output!”
“Would like to clarify that Tesla is working exclusively with Panasonic for Model 3 cells. News articles claiming otherwise are incorrect.”
“@weddleandsons @Tesla Working with Weddle and Sons Roofing has been a great collaboration for accelerating Tesla Solar Roof installation! This is a lot of work, as tens of millions of homes need solar roofs! If you are a roofing company, please consider adding Solar Roof to your offerings.”
“@_milankovac_ Milan, thank you for your outstanding contribution to Tesla over the past decade. It was an honor working with you. Enjoy the time with family.”
“@teslaownersSV Working”
“@InsideEVs Great work by Tesla China team & supporting contractors!”
“RT @Tesla_Optimus: Optimus will be the biggest product ever made. A general-purpose humanoid robot that can do useful work at scale will c…”
“@teslaownersSV We are working as quickly as possible to get 100+ Teslas operating for autonomous ride-hailing (can’t use the word “taxi” or “cab” in California) in the Bay Area and allow anyone to request a ride”
“@teslaownersSV @johnkrausphotos Note, Autopilot/AI team is also working on Optimus and (actually smart) summon/autopark, which have end of month deadlines”
“@teslaownersSV @iamyesyouareno @MarioNawfal The specific area I’m talking about is engineering, which is needed to build the best technology. Encouraging kids to learn how things work is the key. Take apart car engines, toasters, microwave ovens, speakers, etc. Make model airplanes, rockets, cars. As you’re doing this…”
“@Teslaconomics But clearly there is a lot of work to do before Optimus is capable of doing so 😂”
“@WalterIsaacson Accurate. [Technical note: Linux in 1999 was still early days, whereas Windows had a whole video game dev community to draw upon. In later years with SpaceX & Tesla, I obviously went with Linux. Also, Max was unequivocally wrong that the site wouldn’t work with Windows. It…”
“@Teslarati Model Y heat pump is some of the best engineering I’ve seen in a while. Team did next-level work.”
“@TesLatino Thanks to a great Autopilot/AI team working super hard! Doing “neural nets” without testing them against reality has led some groups to overestimate what they’re doing. Reality is the hardest sim.”
“@SamTwits Founding story of Tesla as portrayed by Eberhard is patently false. I wish I had never met him. Eberhard is by far the worst person I’ve ever worked with in my entire career. Given how many people I’ve worked with over the years, that’s really saying something …”
“@SP_LimitReviews @Tesla @CodingMark @Manic_Marge @teslainventory @WholeMarsBlog Lot of good work happening on Tesla sound codec & audio software in general. Aiming for maximum music dopamine in your brain!”
“@ICannot_Enough @genesimmons @JoeBiden By the way, Tesla factory worker compensation is the highest in the auto industry https://t.co/Peo3qtYc5D https://www.reddit.com/r/teslamotors/comments/r3m74k/andrew_sorkin_surprisingly_good_questions_to_mary/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf”
“@Teslaconomics It will be a very hard climb to 10X output. Doable, but it is an immense amount of work.”
“@ZubyMusic Was buried in Tesla work all day, so unfortunately missed out, but that is good to hear 😂 So long as this platform is not boring, it will succeed.”
“@DirtyTesLa We’re working super hard on 10.13, but it isn’t ready yet”
“@WholeMarsBlog The probability of Tesla dying in 2008/2009 was very high. We closed our financing round at 6pm on Dec 24th – the last working hour of the last day before Tesla would otherwise bounce payroll.”
“@tesletter Thanks to everyone at Tesla who worked so hard over the years to make our Fremont factory successful!”
“@Teslarati We really need a bigger one, so adults can squeeze in too. Guaranteed to make a party more fun. Works well with flamethrowers!”
“RT @cb_doge: Optimus can walk like us. Optimus can dance like us. Optimus can work like us. Now… Optimus can do Kung Fu like us. https:/…”
“@teslaownersSV @Teslarati Working on that with Medtronic. Given NY pressing needs, we’re delivering Resmed, Philips & Medtronic ventilators to NY hospitals starting tonight.”
“@WholeMarsBlog FSD/AI team is doing great work. Will get superhuman good in upcoming releases. Note, we will slow down upload rate of releases going forward. First from QA fleet to employee cars for a day, then slowly releasing at ~1000 cars/hr to external beta on Friday aft.”
“@Teslarati Looking forward to seeing Giga Shanghai soon 😀 Amazing work by Tesla China team & support of authorities much appreciated!”
“@cb_doge I was pulling network cables on Saturday to understand the critical path better. Went through both the Tesla and xAI supercomputer clusters.”
“@andre4fink @teslaeurope @Gf4Tesla Tesla team is awesome: take pride in working hard, build great products and are good-hearted people.”
“@jamesdouma @farzyness Training compute should soon not be so much of a limiting factor. Very difficult bringing the 10k H100 cluster online btw. Similar experience to bringing our now 16k A100 cluster online. Uptime & performance are low at first, then improve with lots of work by Tesla & Nvidia.”
“@PPathole @SpaceX @Tesla That was my night job. Day job was working on ruthenium-tantalum ultracapacitors at Pinnacle Research.”
