    Some personal news: our company is moving to China. It has been a multi-YEAR process, but it’s finally happening. If you know anything about our industry and the investment opportunities in China, you’ll know why we are moving. If you don’t, follow along and you’ll see why.

    It’s 2022, and Teslas still aren’t stopping for children.

    I’m headed to Huawei’s Mate 70 launch event in Shenzhen (yes, Shenzhen Metro has business class). This phone/chip/OS/event is a really big deal for Chinese tech, and has big implications for US-China relations. Here’s some background.

    The black car on the right that does stop for the dummy child is equipped with LiDAR from @luminartech—a technology Tesla still refuses to use in its production vehicles—though Tesla does use LiDAR to test how far off the distances its cameras estimate are from actual.

    I’m at the Huawei launch of the world’s first tri-fold phone, and new intelligent driving conference in Shenzhen. Huawei’s timing is not a coincidence; Apple’s keynote was just a few hours ago. This is symbolic. I’m definitely the only American here…

    Watch a Tesla on the latest version of "Full Self-Driving" Beta almost hit a pedestrian who had a walk sign, try going down railroad tracks, & glitch to the point where the driver COULD NOT TAKE CONTROL. All in 21-min drive. Full video from @Aiaddict1: youtube.com/watch?v=2ub2F-…

    Ok I can now tweet about it, the most advanced car in history is about to be unveiled. Live thread below.

    This is the scariest near-crash on Tesla Full Self-Driving Beta I've seen. The Tesla tries to turn directly in front of a train (light rail) in Denver.

    Does this look like cardboard?

    Here's a typical drive on Tesla FSD Beta, and why it's the opposite of useful. It's most certainly not even close to being "safer than a human", by any factor. 22-minute drive, 4.5 miles, and WAY too many interventions.

    BYD sold more cars just last month than Tesla sold in all of Q1, worldwide. Let that sink in.

    LiDAR is the same technology used in autonomous vehicles, which Tesla incidentally does not have.
