When a 93-year-old woman noticed how tired she was on her daily drives, she started going out less.
But with FSD Supervised, she’s now able to drive herself to appointments, run errands and even take road trips to visit her family on her own
Tesla on Cybercab in new report:
"We plan to deploy Cybercab as the primary vehicle in our Robotaxi fleet. It eliminates the need for a steering wheel, pedals and traditional controls, freeing up cabin space and ultimately reducing weight and operational costs. It is designed as al compact two-seater because more than 85% of ride-hailing trips carry one to two passengers, * while other autonomous Tesla vehicles serve larger groups.
Cybercab incorporates numerous in-house advancements including our 4680 battery cells, steer-by-wire technology and 48-volt architecture, with the latter enabling the delivery of power to different parts of the vehicle more efficiently.
It also leverages our "unboxed" manufacturing process that builds the vehicle in parallel (instead of using traditional sequential manufacturing lines),| leading to a more efficient use of the factory space.
Furthermore, Cybercab is manufactured from lightweight reactive injection molded (RIM) panels that eliminate the need for a traditional paint shop. Cybercab also includes a new drive unit that eliminates reliance on critical minerals that can be costly and difficult to procure. These innovations deliver a step-change reduction in vehicle bill of material and manufacturing costs while aiming to meet and, in some cases, exceed the global safety standards."
I think most investors are misunderstanding how soon orbital compute will ramp
99% of the difficulty was Starship
The satellites themselves are a similar level of complexity as Starlink
The bottleneck is Starship, which I believe is almost here
India just entered the Top 5 in global manufacturing. 🇮🇳
But the real story is the speed of growth.
1960 → 2015: $3B → $328B
2015 → 2025: $328B → ~ $500B
And we're still importing:
* $180B+ crude oil
* $116B+ electronics
* $50B+ gold
But the opportunity is still massive.
Because at the current growth rates, India could cross $1 trillion in manufacturing and overtake Japan by 2029.
It's the beginning of India's manufacturing decade.
Build in Bharat. 🇮🇳
Jim Cramer on @SpaceX going public:
"We should encourage wealth, and this one is ultimately going to make people a lot of money. He (Elon) probably has things in his head that are far more valuable than what we see. There's more to this company than what's in the prospectus. Personally, I'm proud to be an American today. I think this one is more than a piece of paper. It reminds me of when we landed on the Moon and I realized we had beaten the Russians."

Elon Musk just measured your existence by how many times your atoms have been inside a dying star.
Musk: “How many times have your atoms been at the center of a star? I think it’s like on average three or four times.”
Every atom in your body has already survived the core of a star.
Multiple times.
Crushed under pressures that would flatten planets.
Superheated to millions of degrees.
Blown apart in explosions so violent they forged new elements.
Then gravity pulled those scattered pieces back together.
New stars formed.
And the cycle repeated.
For 13.8 billion years, your atoms have been fuel for the most violent process in the universe.
And they are not done.
Musk: “In terms of existence as measured by the number of times your atoms will be at the center of a star, we seem to be roughly halfway.”
Halfway.
Your atoms have been through the furnace three or four times.
They will go through three or four more.
But right now, in this impossibly thin sliver between cycles, those atoms are doing something they have never done before.
They are conscious.
For billions of years before you, they burned through stellar cores with no awareness.
No memory.
No sense of what they were or where they had been.
After you, they will return to that state.
Unconscious matter drifting through space until the next star claims them.
This is the only moment in their entire journey where they can look back at the stars that made them and understand.
Musk: “If you want to look at the big picture… that’s the really big picture.”
The big picture is not that we are small.
Everyone already knows that.
The big picture is that we are temporary witnesses to a process that does not need witnesses.
Stars do not need observers to burn.
Atoms do not need anyone to understand where they have been.
The universe ran for billions of years with no one in it.
It will run for billions more after the last conscious thing disappears.
But right now, matter is examining itself.
That has never happened before in 13.8 billion years.
You are not a person who happens to contain ancient atoms.
You are ancient atoms that briefly figured out how to think.
The universe did not design consciousness.
It designed stars.
Consciousness was the accident.
And the accident is half over.
FSD V14.3.3 mad max shifts right to pass semi, sees semi pop turn signal, immediately signals left and crosses back over to execute pass away from where it understands the semi will move.
Like butter. WHOOP!
Holy crap, Tesla FSD V14.3.3 is a gamechanger for Actually Smart Summon.
The car now drives 33% quicker (8 mph).
It’s so quick and confident. It’s like your own personal Robotaxi.
Lord Krishna in the Bhagwad Gita: when adharma rises, a warrior has the duty to fight. Showing misplaced empathy to adharma itself becomes adharma.
Arjuna mistakes his emotional attachment and fear of consequences for righteousness. Krishna points out that Arjuna is a warrior/guardian of society and a warrior’s cosmic duty is to protect society from chaos and injustice.
If Arjuna walks away, evil (adharma) wins by default. Society descends into lawlessness, and Arjuna becomes complicit in that ruin by failing to stop it. Krishna calls Arjuna's hesitation unmanly and dishonorable for a warrior.
