@xA4ryA @itsm_hope And if you read it upside down, you have 911

[Sam Van Parys @SamVanParys]

@itsm_hope 911?

@EvaFox So failure is not optional. Fail fast, learn rapidly. Until you succeed

[Sam Van Parys @SamVanParys]

@farzyness It's a time problem. Which can be accelerated using hardware or software.

@herbertong Something street legal in Europe? 🤞

@elonmusk @Math_files Twice Einstein's birthday!

[Sam Van Parys @SamVanParys]

@EvaFox I would have been surprised if you wouldn't have had been this way.
It gives you a certain vibe that I really like in a person.
So thank you for being you

@stevenmarkryan ... Yet

[Sam Van Parys @SamVanParys]

@stevenmarkryan Wow!
You think they will be so reckless that they dare going into organizing a premeeting without congressional approval? Then it must be very urgent! 😲

[Sam Van Parys @SamVanParys]

@elonmusk @wholemars Why would it take the step of finding a theory that does not explain everything?

[Sam Van Parys @SamVanParys]

@EvaFox Happy Valentine's day! 🥂

To transition to a 100% robot economy, it might be best to start with the food sector. This will at least make sure that during the transition, even if there is no UBI/UHI yet, people do not starve...

@amy787 @TeslaJoy @elonmusk In Europe, all cars have a physical SOS button, including Tesla's.
Would be a great addition to augment that feature with the 4D radar to decide what the best path forward is. Including driving to the nearest hospital (on FSD even when the owner does not have this option)

[Sam Van Parys @SamVanParys]

I think they have something similar, but not the same.
Each starship will have their own digital twin. And especially with the engines, you start to get to a volume that AI can help improve.
At most it will be a copy of the software.
But a single instance is currently unlikely, I think. That would mean that already have a de-facto merge behind the scenes, because they would share basically every secret.
Having a single instance after the merge would be very beneficial, of course. Because the Tesla instance would learn a lot from e.g. materials in extreme conditions, and the SpaceX instance would learn a lot about the volume production details, battery management...

[Sam Van Parys @SamVanParys]

One of the lesser discussed topics of any potential merger between Tesla and SpaceX would be the advantage of using "Tesla One" for the production of AI satelites swarms.
@ConnectingODots: Maybe an interesting topic for a deep dive?

[Sam Van Parys @SamVanParys]

@_Blue_Earth_ @ConnectingODots Since Tesla also has a factory in Germany, the EU also has to agree. Which could be a bigger hurdle than any political USA party, in my opinion.

[Sam Van Parys @SamVanParys]

@ConnectingODots I have been thinking the same. Would make a lot of sense.
But are they separate instances, or one instance.
One would be a lot more powerful, because learnings from cars could be applied to e.g rockets.
But I do not think that would be feasible as long as they are not 1 entity.

[Sam Van Parys @SamVanParys]

@amy787 On that question I completely agree with your answer.

[Sam Van Parys @SamVanParys]

@stevenmarkryan @elonmusk Fun starts when you optimize the processors for space and realize superconducting materials work extremely well out there. Could result in 2-3 orders of magnitude improvement in compute per watt in space vs on earth.
