We already do somewhat have V2V communication. It comes in the form of traffic data. Routing decisions are being made based on this information. While this data is nowhere near as fine grained as what I believe you're talking about, the concept is the same.

I've had some luck at keeping the cabin camera going by keeping it cool. I've set the AC on 10 pointed only at the windshield, set the AC on keep when the car is parked, park in the shade and used the windshield washer fluid for additional cooling. This kept me going until around 1PM in Phoenix...

I'm having this same issue. It started in the beginning of June on my 2018 Model 3. As another poster mentioned, it seems to be correlated with heat. Hopefully this can be resolved without a cabin camera replacement. If the cabin camera is safety equipment, shouldn't this be a recall?

Has anyone checked out the RoboTaxi report by CYBRLFT on YouTube? He is driving a Model 3 with Beta doing Uber in San Diego and doing a good job recording disengagements. Looking at the most most recent data review video it looks like the error rate halved from 10.8.1 to 10.11.2. It was ~3...

My parents are pretty conservative... They're also putting up a 15kW solar array this summer. The prospect of never buying gas again and being totally energy self reliant is a rural conservatives dream. My favorite line in regard to solar & EVs is "It's just like having your own oil well and...

These are the times that make those times possible!

Here's the thing: I think he is ticking off the far left; who are perhaps 15% of the population? While gaining in approval with the ~50% of the population right of center. This would result in a net gain in potential customer base.

I think this is actually helping the brand. Sure, he's shedding the woke, but most of the country is sick of them anyways. Living in a deep red state, I've never heard more positive things said about Elon than right now.

I think he's being pretty rational. Big changes will upset people. Tesla is disrupting a large part of the world economy. This is just the backlash from this realization starting to sink in.

I am stunned at the progress of AI that I've seen in the past year. It seems like we've reached some kind of tipping point. Dall-E 2 is a great illustration of this. Extrapolate out the capabilities seen in this video just a bit and the implications are stunning...

Something seems off about this graph. The historical GM ICE production figures are too low. GM production history Am I missing something?

Story time?

I'm curious about how the structural pack & front/rear castings will affect body stiffness. I can tell the body in my 2018 Model 3 twists when I go over uneven ground. Musk alluded to improved crash performance, I assume this is due to a stiffer frame.

Earlier this week there was talk about the best YouTube channels for Tesla information. I'd recommend Two Minute Papers. While it is not directly about Tesla, it does offer a ton of examples of the cutting edge of AI research, which clearly has implications for FSD. The videos are short, easily...

I would be curious to know what the average utilization rate is of a car in the city... I'd reckon that it's less than 10%. If utilization could be increased to 20% while keeping demand constant (A probably unrealistic assumption!), it would follow that a city would need only half as many cars...
