Elon Musk on robotaxi expansion: "We do need to be cautious to not cause any accidents; If we injured even one person, it will be world headline news. We are going as fast as humanly possible, but trying to insure we don't harm anyone at all. That's really the constraint."

Troubling …

[Austin Kennedy @astnkennedy]

I'm 22 years old and Claude Code is deteriorating my brain.

Every single day for the last 6 months I've had 6 to 8 Claude Code terminals open, waiting for a response just so I can hit 'enter' 75% of the time. And it's doing something to me.

In convos with a couple of friends, it's been a point that's been brought up pretty frequently.

None of us feel as sharp as we used to.

I don't know if it's just us, or others in their 20s are feeling the same thing, but it's something I've been thinking about a lot.

P.S. I know this is a problem with my reliability/usage of it, not Claude Code itself, but the effects are real nonetheless

Former SpaceX CIO Ken Venner explains what makes @elonmusk a "genius" operator:

"Elon hired me because he wanted to build the digital nervous system for the 21st-century rocket company."

"I'm like, this is either the smartest thing or the stupidest thing we've ever done, and I have no idea right now whether this is smart or stupid."

"For the first 2 years, I didn't think it was such a smart idea. By year 3, when we really had the software working well and the company was really using it, I'm like, this man is a genius."

"He figured out what we needed to do, how we needed to get it done."

"It became one of the major differentiators for how SpaceX could scale and keep all the information together and connected with each other."

I deeply resent that AI has forced me to eliminate em dashes from my writing for fear of signaling slop

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

I was clearly wrong about Anthropic. They are obviously currently the leader in AI. No company has released a model as good as Mythos/Fable and they will undoubtedly have Mythos 2 ready soon.

And I would never cut them off in a way that hurt them badly, even as a competitor. That’s not my style.

Tesla open sourced its patents and we made the Supercharger network available to all competitors, even though we could have made it a walled garden.

SpaceX launches competing satellite systems with no increase in price or use of unfair terms.

Even my worst enemies can attack me on this platform.

Can’t get over how amazing the event was. 🇺🇸

🔥 HELL YEAH! A pilot just used his airplane to draw a USA 250th banner using his flight path

It took him over FIVE HOURS of flying time to do this.

What a PATRIOT! 🇺🇸

A tragic accident has occurred in Nevada after the driver of a Tesla Semi fell asleep and hit multiple other cars.

Two people, Sergio and Jen Villanueva, died after their Volkswagen Beetle was hit.

I am calling on Tesla to accelerate the development of self-driving for the Tesla Semi, including by prioritizing active safety features such as automatic emergency braking, lane departure avoidance, forward collision warning, drowsy driver detection, and more.

Claude Fable 5 will be available again globally tomorrow.

After a series of productive conversations with the US government, we're redeploying the model with a new set of classifiers to target and block more cybersecurity tasks. In the near term, some routine tasks like coding and debugging will fall back to Opus 4.8. We’ll continue to refine these classifiers over the coming weeks to reduce false positives and better distinguish genuine misuse from legitimate requests.

We’ve also begun drafting a consensus framework—with Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and other Glasswing partners—for assessing the severity of AI jailbreaks and how AI developers should respond to them. We invite other industry partners and model providers to join us in this effort.

Finally, we’re scaling up our collaboration with the US government on model testing and safeguards. This will include pre-release access to models and safeguards for evaluation, information sharing on jailbreaks and misuse, and dedicated resources for joint research.

Thank you to our users for your patience, and to our partners across the government, industry, and the research community who worked alongside us to make Fable 5 available again.

We’ve received notice that the Department of Commerce has lifted export controls on Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5.

We'll begin restoring access tomorrow, and will share an update soon.

We’re grateful to our users for their patience, and to everyone who worked with us on redeploying the models.

Full statement by Ashok. He’s 100% right. This blatant irresponsible reporting has caused major harm not only to the Tesla brand but also to the entire autonomy movement.

These Evil politicians and news media have cause major FUD which will inherently scare the general public into not using the products like Tesla FSD that COULD SAVE THEIR LIFE!
