He says:
• Tesla Robotaxis are already operating fully driverless in 3 Texas cities
• Optimus could lead to a world with far more robots than humans
• Starship is key to making humanity multi-planetary
• Neuralink may eventually restore communication, mobility, and even vision

Elon Musk on Tesla's valuation:
“I agree with Ark Invest and Cathie Wood that autonomy, robotic taxis, makes Tesla about a $5 trillion company.
The Optimus robot, I think, makes Tesla a $25 trillion company.”
It hit me yesterday when I was going to pick up lunch.
I pre-cooled the Tesla Model 3 from my phone, and set the destination to the restaurant. Then I hit start self-driving. Mad Max mode, park in the parking lot.
The car drove so confidently, it's movements were so lifelike... I just couldn't believe it. The way it drives is... confident... comforting... better than anything I could have imagined.
As it drove me to pick up my lunch order, I changed the music on my phone. I turned up the music and danced a little as I opened X and started reading and replying to peoples comments. It got to the restaurant before I even realized where we were, pulled into the parking lot, and parked perfectly.
I picked up the food, put it in the frunk, and then got in the car. Tapped Home (Mad Max, Park in Driveway selected automatically) and then hit self-driving. The car drove me back home like a work of art. It didn't send the food flying around. It was just perfect.
When it got home it parked in the driveway, right where the car was before I left, and I brought the food inside.
It just hit me like damn, they really created a personally owned Robotaxi. This is the user experience I have been dreaming of for years, and now it's here. It's really working, and it's better than I imagined.
The coming months and years will be a lot of fun as we just remove the driver out of the equation entirely.
FSD Supervised can reduce risk of hydroplaning
Through Tesla Vision, your Tesla continuously estimates the wetness of the road in rainy conditions.
Using that data + real-time vehicle input & response + estimated tire tread depth, it can then automatically change your speed profile to Chill & adjust speed as needed to help keep you safe
I have instructed the relevant authorities that Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, the Latin Patriarch, be granted full and immediate access to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.
Over the past several days, Iran has repeatedly targeted the holy sites of all three monotheistic religions in Jerusalem with ballistic missiles. In one strike, missile fragments crashed meters from the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
To protect worshippers, Israel asked members of all faiths to temporarily abstain from worshipping at the Christian, Muslim and Jewish holy sites in Jerusalem’s Old City.
Today, out of special concern for his safety, Cardinal Pizzaballa was asked to refrain from holding mass at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
Even though I understand this concern, as soon as I learned about the incident with Cardinal Pizzaballa, I instructed the authorities to enable the Patriarch to hold services as he wishes.
