I've never in my life seen live or driven the UPL like Chuck's case. I don't think it would never pass a city planning process in Finland. Never. So does it have to be a show stopper (or at least a drag) for FSD? (Yes, I know, the EU regulation is our show stopper at the moment...)

Hey, but how about "Preprototype PRO Driver"..!

Ok, thanks! Couldn't listen a call because of time difference. I'm just catching up and saw Elon's(?) comment about negotiatons with one OEM. If FSD licencing is an easier prosess, that's of course better for a.long term. But short term pressure for licencing won't be so high..?

So, FSD licencing to other manufacturers, when? It's Ford, isn't it? Some pressures in other companies? I guess Tesla can't develop FSD hardware and software at once with many partners.

About mission: CT also helps to establish a supply chain for a 48-volt system. Which reduces use of copper tens of kilograms per car. And helps with energy effiency. It would be very difficult to start that chance with a high volume model.

Affordability is the key. An example from Finland: "The car trade has stagnated, but the pace of electrification remains fast compared to the previous year. The number of fully electric cars increased by 71 percent on Finnish roads in one year. At the beginning of the year, the first...

If I'm right, the car registration officesin China were closed from thursday (to sunday?). I saw a tweet from this, couldn't find it now. But heres an example in Beijing: "From April 4 to 7: No License Plate-based Restriction on Vehicles in Beijing"...

Euro rates should start coming down in about two months. US may be another story. https://www.ft.com/content/550f4437-b104-46cc-a205-bc8c447ae444

Which AI companies are gonna make profit in near future with their AI products? Others than Tesla? Just asking.

This is what almost whole Europe is waiting. And especially here in north, most of the mortrage loans are tied to 12 month (or 3/6 month) Euro interest rates. The whole economy is at the moment deep frozen. For example building of houses is at the lowest level since 1990's. "Eurozone inflation...
