ELON MUSK: WE CONSTANTLY UPDATE THE SOFTWARE TO IMPROVE HOW AIRBAGS DEPLOY IN TESLA
"your car creates a custom airbag deployment plan based on your weight and posture in real-time"
There is a strong argument that you no longer need seatbelts if airbags are really good
You’re just covered in airbags everywhere. Modern airbags are so good, it would blow your mind
In a Tesla, we even update the software to improve how the airbags deploy
We calculate Are you an adult? How much do you weigh? Are you sitting on this part of the seat or that part? Are you an baby ? We measure the pressure distribution on the seat. Are you sitting on the edge? Are you a 5th percentile female or a 95th percentile male?
The airbag firing will be different depending on where you are sitting, your size, and your orientation is and we update it over the air, so it gets better over time
So a child could conceivably sit in the front seat? An unbelted child sitting in a bad position is probably still fine
It is dynamically updating the airbag firing according to where you’re sitting and how much you weigh in real-time. The seatbelt is just... "that’s nice."

Bo Nix has all the intangibles to become the best QB in the NFL.
He just won a shootout against Josh Allen, a quarterback many consider the best in the league.
Heading into Year 3, we still don’t even know how high Bo Nix’s ceiling truly is.
Baker Mayfield really went from true freshman walk-on to playing at an MVP level in the NFL ✅
And the journey in between is nothing short of remarkable 🤯
