Musk's face is the first thing you see on the front page of their website, I'm pretty sure he'll be speaking.

Yes, according to StreetInsider.com:

It says:

Musk is slated to begin his presentation at 12:00pm EDT following opening remarks from CEO Jen-Hsun Huang.

and there is a live stream, but I guess not on Elon......

Jen-Hsun Huang is starting to talk about self driving cars. Presumably Elon will join him soon.

Have to go to work in 25 minutes, so according to sod's law we should start getting the good stuff around then.

Elon sounds soooooo tired. haha

...and there it is. Thursday's press 'call' is about what's in version 6.2.

What? I wouldn't bet on simple software release notes being the only item revealed at a Tesla press conference. He said no such thing.

Interesting that Phil LeBeau is practically live-tweeting select Elon comments (albeit taken out of context).

I loved the comment he made that they are building a ton of hardware into the car and turning on features overtime through software. This is what most people don't understand about the potential of EVs. The hardware is the super cheap easy stuff. Car companies will differentiate themselves between services that their cars can offer to a consumer through software and hardware upgrades.

Elon adds that the first thing we try to do is establish a hardware platform so we can do continuous updates to the software. A lot of that will happen later this year. I have an announcement on Thursday, and I don’t want to get ahead of that.
He deflects Jen-Hsun’s kidding effort to ask if he want to share that news, “There’s going to be a call on Thursday on what’s going to be in our next version for anyone that’s interested, that’s all”

First it's a press 'call'. He just said it. Second, he also just said he'd say more about what Tesla was doing on software updates if he didn't have a press call on Thursday. Then went on to say it was about the contents of firmware version 6.2. He just said it at the Nvidia conference on stage, which apparently you just watched.

Will there be more to say on the call? Maybe.

 

[drinkerofkoolaid]

I think one of the most interesting comments from Elon was "the software in the Model S is taking advantage of only a small percent of the hardware and computer power."

That's my point -- you seemed to imply exclusivity of topic, where there was none stated.

I'm betting the 'announcement' is exclusively about 6.2, while those asking questions on the call may try and make it about other stuff.

I only use a few percent of my brain, too.

Turn it on, Elon.

Fair enough, you are free to bet as you will. But Elon did not speak to exclusivity of topic at the Nvidia conference.
