My car just drove me from SF to LA. I just sat there with my hands in my lap and watched the road for 6.5 hours. It felt unreal. Hands-free is a bigger change than I expected.
- To ChatGPT: write a short essay about how news used to be controlled by concentrated media organizations but has now become more democratized Response: For decades, traditional media organizations have controlled the distribution and consumption of news, limiting the
- A manually driven Tesla is 2x less likely to be in a crash. A Tesla on AP is 5x less likely. * ~1% of Americans die in car crashes. Make that number lower. Make it lower for yourself, for your spouse, for your parents and your kids. Make it lower for your neighbors too. Drive a
- I just had a 2hr FSD drive on winding mountain roads that was transcendent. It was perfect. Not good: PERFECT. Smooth, controlled, assertive, COMFORTABLE. Better than human. Oh man this is really happening 😁😁😁. Bravo AP Team. Bravo @elonmusk
- I didn’t buy my Cybertruck for its off-road capability, but yesterday I was thankful for it. It’s like crash safety that way: when you need it you *really* need it.
- If Tesla’s Robotaxi efforts continue to go well we could see both US road accidents and US road emissions halved in less than 10 years.
- Car ownership will evolve in a similar fashion to how landline phones changed with the coming of the cell phone. At first, few gave up landlines because cell phones weren’t a complete substitute. As cell phone networks improved in quality and ubiquity, the rationale for payingReplying to @jamesdouma @Fabian10O and @stevenmarkryanHow do you factor willingness to not own a car? Man, Americans REALLY love their cars - often more than their houses/rentals. I worry it will take a long time for people to give them up in meaningful numbers despite how enthusiastic we are about the potential here. The breaking
- Real time access to X posts really is a killer feature for Grok. Conversational and tailored access to timely current event summaries is awesome. This alone is worth the subscription.
- Cruising to Mendocino is solved. For years this has been our SF weekend escape route and I’ve driven it on every version of AP and FSD, watching it gradually do more and more of the drive. But now it’s done. It’s basically perfect.

- Frequent travel between SF and LA has been an enormous drain on my time and energy for 25 years. FSD has nearly eliminated it. This technology has significantly improved my quality of life.Big difference between constantly making micro-adjustments, watching traffic, anticipating behavior of other drivers vs just leaning back and watching the road FSD Supervised lets you do the latter
- I love my Cybertruck. It's the apotheosis of design and utility. The tasteless hordes and their MSM-addled brains may be unequipped to recognize its brilliance but I DON'T CARE. To abandon it for yet another mediocre me-too creation would be tragic and unacceptable. This thingThe truck on the bottom is the weird one. It makes no sense structurally, aerodynamically, spatially. It’s purely an imitation of the past. It has no soul of its own. It’s a copy of a copy of a copy. It’s a product of a civilization in decay. A product of a cargo cult that
- V12 is going to be over 100x reduction in interventions compared to V11. This is not an incremental upgrade, it's a leap forward. Thanks @Rebellionaire3 for giving me a chance to experience V12 path planning and control. It's impressively better than V11 and I predict that most
- FSD V13.2.7… … is indistinguishable from magic.
