“@OstynHyss @nickwhoward Beta 10 or maybe 10.1. Going to pure vision set us back initially. Vision plus (coarse) radar had us trapped in a local maximum, like a level cap. Pure vision requires fairly advanced real-world AI, but that’s how our whole road system is designed to work: NN’s with vision.”
“@WholeMarsBlog The Tesla AI predictions are swiftly becoming superhuman – its guesses for what it can’t see well feel like ESP. It has a vastly larger training set than any human & thinks only about driving.”
“@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.”
“@stevenmarkryan Convincing the best AI talent to join Tesla is the sole goal”
“Tesla AI Day August 19th”
“@DimaZeniuk @truth_tesla That’s a low bar. Carmakers have never valued software engineering highly, although VW is trying to change that. I personally wrote software for 20 years & have huge respect for software engineers. Tesla is on par with best software companies & is leader in real world AI.”
“@facebookai To date, AI chatbots have had a rather short MtH (meantime to Hitler) score. Tay was ~16 hours. https://t.co/FnWMXgpZji https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tay_(bot)”
“@BLKMDL3 Haha, FSD 9 beta is shipping soon, I swear! Generalized self-driving is a hard problem, as it requires solving a large part of real-world AI. Didn’t expect it to be so hard, but the difficulty is obvious in retrospect. Nothing has more degrees of freedom than reality.”
“@NatGeo Toxoplasmosis infects rats, then cats, then humans who make cat videos. AI trains achieves superhuman intelligence training on Internet cat videos, thus making toxoplasmosis the true arbiter of our destiny.”
“Looking at holding Tesla AI Day in about a month or so. Will go over progress with Tesla AI software & hardware, both training & inference. Purpose is recruiting.”
“@leastImAlive @PPathole Yeah, sold my houses, except for 1 in Bay Area that’s rented out for events. Working on sustainable energy for Earth with Tesla & protecting future of consciousness by making life multiplanetary with SpaceX. Also, AI risk mitigation with Neuralink & fixing traffic with Boring.”
“A major part of real-world AI has to be solved to make unsupervised, generalized full self-driving work, as the entire road system is designed for biological neural nets with optical imagers”
“@billhuang688 @RationalEtienne @F9Block5 Certainly one of the largest. A company whose name rhymes with Shmoogle is pretty far ahead. But I think we’re the leader in shallow-minded AI haha!”
“@RationalEtienne @F9Block5 While perhaps obvious in hindsight, it turns out that the only way to solve self-driving is to solve a big part of real-world AI. That is what Tesla is doing, both in hardware & software. Unless a company is good at AI with tight compute, it’s hopeless. This is insanely hard.”
“Tesla AI/Autopilot engineering is awesome! Making excellent progress solving real-world AI.”
“@summerlinARK I wanna know when AI will be able to do standup comedy well!?”
“FSD Beta has now been expanded to ~2000 owners & we’ve also revoked beta where drivers did not pay sufficient attention to the road. No accidents to date. Next significant release will be in April. Going with pure vision — not even using radar. This is the way to real-world AI.”
“@CyberpunkGame Delamain AI cabs should be able to drive themselves when you’re in them & be electric by 2077”
“@WholeMarsBlog Tesla AI, both hardware & software, is deeply underestimated”
“@billhuang688 @F9Block5 @PPathole FSD beta build V8.1 normally drives me around with no interventions. Next version is a big step change beyond that. Tesla is solving a major part of real-world AI. This is not widely known.”
“@teslaownersSV @cleantechnica We’re upgrading all NNs to surround video, using subnets on focal areas (vs equal compute on all uncropped pixels) & many other things, so more time needed to write & validate software. Maybe something next week. This is evolving into solving a big part of physical world AI.”
“@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.”
“@cleantechnica To my surprise, Tesla has better AI hardware & software than Waymo (money)”
“@benmezrich I am primarily trying to advance two causes: sustainable energy & extending life/consciousness beyond Earth. There is also the existential threat of AI, which we should aspire to mitigate. This doesn’t leave time to write books.”
“@Ragazaga5 @SpacePadreIsle Maybe a Tesla AI day later this year”
“@comma_ai Tesla Full Self-Driving will work at a safety level well above that of the average driver this year, of that I am confident. Can’t speak for regulators though.”
“@DeepMind @nature Frictionless AI. What could possibly go wrong?”
“@teslaownerssv It will get absurdly good. Tesla AI/Autopilot engineering is awesome! There’s some great AI out there, but can it self-drive while playing Cyberpunk … ?”
“@EndelSound @Grimezsz Future AI will appreciate this”
“@ID_AA_Carmack There is already bidirectional communication between human & AI via phones & computers. It’s just lossy & very slow (especially output)”
“@slashdot An AI with 🍓 picking as its goal will result in Strawberry Fields Forever”
“@flcnhvy @JaneidyEve Hopefully, we have achieved AI symbiosis by then”
“@EverydayElon @ajtourville @comma_ai @Tesmanian_com Yes”
“@WholeMarsBlog @ajtourville @comma_ai @Tesmanian_com Yes”
“@DanielleFong @ajtourville @comma_ai @Tesmanian_com Absolutely needs liquid cooling. We’re applying our experience cooling half megawatt drive unit power electronics in cars to computers.”
“@ajtourville @comma_ai @Tesmanian_com Dojo V1.0 isn’t done yet. About a year away. Not just about the chips. Power & cooling problem is hard.”
“Tesla is developing a NN training computer called Dojo to process truly vast amounts of video data. It’s a beast! Please consider joining our AI or computer/chip teams if this sounds interesting.”
“This would solve a lot of brain/spine injuries & is ultimately essential for AI symbiosis”
“@BBCScienceNews Population collapse is 2nd biggest danger to civilization after AI imo”
“@PPathole That is the near-term danger of AI”
“AI symbiosis while u wait”
“@eBookBooster Zork with AI dungeon master”
“@OpenAI AI makes more progress”
“Abysmal autocorrect might be the #1 reason people don’t fear AI”
“@_KarenHao @OpenAI All orgs developing advanced AI should be regulated, including Tesla”
“What if there was an AI programmed to want to pick as many strawberries as possible, and so it cultivated nothing but strawberries on all of Earth’s land? Then it would be Strawberry Fields Forever!”
“@SamTalksTesla A PhD is definitely not required. All that matters is a deep understanding of AI & ability to implement NNs in a way that is actually useful (latter point is what’s truly hard). Don’t care if you even graduated high school.”
“Tesla will hold a super fun AI party/hackathon at my house with the Tesla AI/autopilot team in about four weeks. Invitations going out soon.”
““At Tesla, using AI to solve self-driving isn’t just icing on the cake, it the cake” - @lexfridman Join AI at Tesla! It reports directly to me & we meet/email/text almost every day. My actions, not just words, show how critically I view (benign) AI. https://t.co/iF97zvYZRz https://www.tesla.com/autopilotAI”
