Today we have a 0.5-2% rollout of a slightly unstable but according to most reviewers greatly improved FSD. The main difference vs V11 being that control is now done by a neural network which we call end2end. It seems to handle most scenarios well, a few scenarios where reliability needs to...

When I read the biography of Elon I learnt that he was addicted to Polytopia. I had never played the game so was curious what it was all about and thought it might be useful to understand Elon/Tesla to try it out and also I do like strategy games and that it was available in the car was a nice...

Anyone here waiting for the Cybertruck?

Here we discuss and post interesting prediction markets related to Tesla. The market is giving 68% that Elon will get most of his compensation package. Seems a bit low to me, guess we need to start to consider the 1/3 likelihood of this not happening...

https://www.stuff.co.nz/motoring/133125500/electric-vehicle-rebate-and-ute-tax-set-to-be-killed-off-in-december National issued a pledge in September that it planned to eliminate the Clean Car Discount by December 31 of this year if elected into office, noting that Labour had promised that the...

You have any cool Tesla art you have made in ChatGPT with DALLE·3? Here's when Tesla decides to expand to other planets:

Is there any risk that Monkeypox becomes the next pandemic? What’s the probability that R0 is above 1 in the west? Here is a tracker, as of today there has been 120 cases confirmed/suspected in the west: https://bnonews.com/monkeypox/ Australia is reporting a case from a traveller from UK, US...

So Elon has confirmed this: Elon: What I can say is we're gonna move to truly massive scale, no company has ever achieved in history of humanity. Massive scale, FSD, dedicated robotaxi, gonna look quite futuristic. So what are they trying to optimize. * Car made for driving millions of miles *...

I was thinking about the geopolitics of Russia vs Ukraine. Imo it would make sense for the west to stop shutting down nuclear, build more nuclear and build more solar. The second seems unpopular, so guess that’s not an option. So how about the third? Could Tesla build a solar farm gigafactory...

Here is a very recent video going into Lidar perception: My takeaway: Current Lidar approaches do the feature engineering online between the input and the neural network. Tesla are doing their feature engineering when they generate the labels offline. This saves online computation and no...

I have a very long password that Apple atogenerated. Tried to enter it, failed. So I tried to reset it. They send an email, but when I click the link it is a spinning T and nothing has happened for an hour. Tried 3 different web browsers. Any ideas?

Interesting presentation where comma.ai makes the case that it will be very hard for supervised learning to solve self driving and end2end could be the way forward: Fwiw, I think that end2end with a supervised approach to gathering a diverse dataset with difficult situations might be the...

Wanted to catch up on the progress for using transformers for computer vision. Just wanted to share a quick primer for you all. Transformers in Computer Vision: Farewell Convolutions! Transformers in Computer Vision In parallel to how Transformers leveraged self-attention to modelize long-range...

We should talk about GPT-3. Imo GPT-3 will change all software going forward, change the internet. Change all forms of working with computers, all interactions. And GPT-3 is just the taste of what will come, in one year we will have GPT-4 which will be even more better and more capable. Here is...

Last weeks there has been a lot of interesting developments in the machine learning community that I think are relevant for Tesla and their future neural architecture. The first is a paper by facebook that does end-end object detection: The second is GPT-3 by OpenAI that does few shot multi...

Do you think any Model Y from Freemont will reach Europe or will Europe have to wait until Giga Berlin is up and running for the first Model Y? Same for Asia? One Y production line for each continent?

I think this paper deserves a mention here: Billion-scale semi-supervised learning for state-of-the-art image and video classification “Accurate image and video classification is important for a wide range of computer vision applications, from identifying harmful content, to making products...

Can we have a thread where we post all new papers presenting results relevant to Tesla and Autonomous vehicles. Will start off with this one: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1904.04998.pdf

There is a chance we will very soon see a demo of FSD, maybe today. So how would they demo it? A bit more than two years ago Tesla released this demo: From what we can see there they at least had some motion flow, object detection, object prediction, driveable area, navigation, control and...
