Connecticut cop rolling opposite direction with steady (not flashing) red/blue “presence” lights on. Zero siren, zero pull-over intent. FSD sees colors, panics, starts pulling to the shoulder like it’s about to get grounded. I laughed, thumbed the report button, disengaged/re-engaged and kept rolling. First time I’ve seen it confused... show more

New Jersey State Police under investigation after traffic stop decline, who else has noticed not as many cops on the road these days? There might be some explanation as to why drivers on the road are caring less and are riding around like maniacs It is alleged that this is an intentional reaction to a state report critical of the troopers is due to a report stated that troopers were pulling over a disproportionate amount of minority drivers But is that really what's going on? Those getting pulled over were most likely doing something wrong to get stopped by the cops The most glaring problem here is the carelessness on the roads the past couple years by drivers and it's only getting worse every day, you've all seen the swerving, getting cut off, running stop signs and red lights Truly is scary driving on our New Jersey highways, not saying I'm encouraging more traffic stops but a presence more on our roads might start slowing down the madness out there Video 🔗 Information 🔗

Testing FSD 14.3.4 coming into town and it still struggles to slow to correct speed on its own. Speed limits in WI in most towns are 25 MPH. As I come into town speed limit was 45 and it was holding that good. But once I come into town I NEED it to slow correctly to at least 30 so it’s only over by 5 mph If I don’t I will get pulled over. Cops sit at the edge of town. Just waiting to catch you. I tried it again tonight and still does not slow on its own. I usually just switch the speed profile to chill and it immediately slows and I’m good. I can switch it back to standard and it holds at about 5 over. Why can’t FSD just do this on its own? Once unsupervised is here this must be correct. I know FSD is work in progress but this is one of the pain points many of us struggle with. The signs are clearly marked. It even has slow down ahead signs. FSD needs to do its job correctly. I love FSD and I know they will get this but just wanted to highlight the importance of this. Until then I’ll just use the quick change profile trick. 🤙🏼 Tesla AI

I've been using FSD in my Tesla Model X for nearly a year. Here's the Good, the Bad and the Ugly on Tesla's FSD... The Good: - FSD is bar far, the most advanced driving technology I've ever experienced in any vehicle. - I use it every day, on every drive. Why? Because it reduces my driving work substantially. It keeps the car centered in the lane, keeps an appropriate following distance, stops for red lights and stop signs, turns where I need to turn and handles 99% of my driving tasks. - I think driving with FSD is FAR safer than driving without it because it reduces the "dumb" mistakes that drivers make that cause accidents. Mistakes like being distracted and missing the fact that the light is turning red or that the car in front of you just hit the breaks, or swerving out of your lane, or forgetting an exit or a turn and trying to make a heroic move to stay on course. All of these things are handled by FSD with grace and it likely is saving countless accidents. - Long drives and road trips are a pleasure with FSD because you are not fatigued with the many thousands of micro driving tasks, such as keeping the car centered in the lane or even worrying about where you're going. The car does all of that for you (and Navigate on Autopilot also does 95% of this for road trips). - When I use FSD, I have near-0 road rage, never speed up rapidly for no good reason and I am generally a more relaxed driver. The Bad: - Sometimes FSD has Schizophrenia, sees things that aren't there, slows for no reason, is indecisive on whether to go or stop which causes it to do extreme movements of the steering wheel, breaks and accelerator. In most of these circumstances, it's not unsafe, but as the driver sitting in the driver's seat, it is quite embarrassing, especially if you have passengers in the vehicle. - There are times when FSD makes a truly unsafe mistake, misses a red light (super rare) and tries to go when it should clearly stop, or slams on the break because it thinks a car might cross paths when the car was clearly not going to. In all these instances, it's super easy to take over and correct FSD's mistake. I don't even think twice about it...I quickly take over, correct the mistake, and put it back on FSD. The Ugly: - FSD is nearly useless in parking lots. It is surprisingly bad, especially since Elon Musk introduced the "Summon" feature long before FSD was released publicly. He said "just like humans, the AI also needs to learn driving by starting in the parking lot." 5 Years later, Summon still sucks and FSD has no idea how to drive in a parking lot. - Despite the many praises that a specific release often gets on Twitter, my personal experience has been that a new release could actually be worse than the previous version. For example, when my FSD upgraded from 10.69 to 11.3, it lost its ability to get in & out of HOV lanes on the freeway (I live in Scottsdale AZ). This simple loss of functionality (which returned with 11.4) caused numerous missed exits and route delays due to my over-reliance on FSD. - FSD makes some incredibly bad choices that are unexplainable, like certain lane changes, or last-second preparation to try and make a turn from 3 lanes away. These mistakes get better and worse with each release...it's a mixed bag as to what you're going to get with an update. - Your car's FSD never ever learns or improves by user input (not without an update). So it will make the exact same mistake in the exact same location, every, single, time. That can be super annoying. Conclusion: Despite the shortcomings, FSD is a technology marvel that I prefer not to live without. I don't see myself having a primary car that doesn't have Tesla-level FSD capabilities anytime in the future. Even the basic Autopilot features of Tesla are far superior to any other vehicle I've experienced. And despite what Elon says, the rate of improvement that I have experienced in the past year will not put it on a trajectory to be ready without a backup driver anytime in the next year or two. But with a backup driver, FSD is incredible, makes driving safer and I would highly recommend it to anyone!

FSD v14 Lite first impressions - very positive and it feels like a huge step forward for HW3. but there’s still room for improvement. It’s noticeably smoother than 12.6.4, and parking and unparking is impressive - the car can finally reverse in FSD! The updated UI make the experience feel much closer to what AI4 owners have. It’s not perfect yet. There were still a few hesitations and moments where it was overly cautious, like on an advance left turn signal where it hesitated several times in the intersection, as if it was unsure it was allowed to go with oncoming traffic waiting. Parking and unparking was impressive because it’s a brand new feature for HW3, but it wasn’t perfect. In one attempt it pulled nose in about 95% of the way, then just sat there for ~15 seconds before it backed up tried again, this time successfully. Another time it parked exactly in the middle of two spots after driving by numerous open soots. I did have one disengagement and it was navigation related - it could not find the Uptown Supercharger in Victoria. It’s not the easiest Supercharger to find in underground parking (IYKYK), and the navigation (blue line) ended well before the Supercharger itself, so it drove straight by. It circled the parking lot and had to go around the block to try again, but it did the exact same thing so I had to disengage. Maybe a Tesla Charging site map would’ve helped. There was also one intervention while waiting to turn right on a red light. The car did not move for several seconds after it was clear and I had to push the accelerator as there were people behind me getting impatient. But there was one mind blowing moment though. It recognized my home as a charger, so I selected that as the parking option. It backed in and placed the car perfectly between the edge of the driveway and a camping trailer on the other side - maybe six inches on either side. I literally could not have parked it better. Looking forward to putting in more time behind the wheel and seeing how it improves with future updates. Amazing work by the Tesla AI team Ashok Elluswamy 👏 Video (2x speed) of the Supercharger drive below

The crash analysis below shows AI3 FSD v12.6.4 biggest safety weakness: late reaction. This video uses official dashcam crash footage synchronized with the vehicle’s official telemetry logs obtained from Tesla and visualized in CamCutApp. The telemetry shows FSD waiting about 0.67 seconds after the lead vehicle’s brake lights illuminate before it begins braking. From the moment the lead vehicle starts braking until Automatic Emergency Braking intervenes is about 1.5 seconds. During that time, the Tesla slows by only 4 mph, from 62 mph to 58 mph. By the time AEB takes over, only 132 feet remain before impact. There simply isn’t enough distance left to avoid the collision. Millions of AI3 vehicles are still running FSD v12.x. Situations like this require the driver to intervene before it becomes obvious that FSD isn’t braking quickly and aggressively enough, and that’s not always easy to judge in real time. Tesla today announced AI3 v14 Lite which includes “significantly improved safety.” When I get a chance to evaluate v14 Lite, this is exactly what I’ll be testing first. In my opinion, it’s the most important and critical improvement the system needs.

If you're interested in Tesla Robotaxi, Tesla AI or Tesla FSD, then you ought to know about jimmah . He's probably the one person who's done the deepest public dives on Tesla FSD and Tesla AI over the years. In fact, over the past 4 years I've published 40+ videos (!) with James Douma on Tesla AI/FSD (they are all on a playlist on my YouTube channel). I first discovered James Douma a long time ago (maybe almost 8-10 years ago?) on a web forum called . Back then it was one of the only places for early Tesla owners and TSLA investors to discuss issues deeply. While I posted about investing topics, James posted about Tesla Autopilot and its hardware but in a way that was more thorough than anybody else. When I started posting YouTube videos years later, I invited him on my channel to hear his thoughts on Tesla Autopilot/FSD. It was a riveting discussion and I was surprised at how much I could learn from him. I invited him again for another interview on my channel, and once again I was floored by how much I was learning. So over the years, James has been a great resource for me (and many others) to keep pulse on what Tesla is doing with FSD and AI (and even robotics). He doesn't have his own YouTube channel. He doesn't have any paid services or subscriptions. He probably has mixed feelings about so many people knowing about him. But I appreciate his willingness over the years to be available and help the Tesla community by offering his insights and knowledge. Yesterday I spent most of the day with James taking Robotaxi rides and discussion all things Robotaxi: - current state of Robotaxi - quality of Robotaxi rides - possible scaling plans - challenges - comparison to Waymo and others - Tesla AI 5 - and much more Attached is a 2+ hour edited video of our Robotaxi rides and discussion. We also had an hour+ discussion on Optimus humanoid robots that I'll upload as a separate video tomorrow.

Hate to be that guy but it needs to be said. Tesla has not yet solved FSD and there is no guarantee it will be solved by June Don't misunderstand me, I'm not predicting it won't be ready. I'm simply reminding a specific group of people that seem to be operating under the assumption it's already a done deal If it was truly solved, we would have Unsupervised. Yes, it's incredible 99% of the time but cracking the code for the final 1% is excruciatingly difficult While we're on the subject - does FSD pull out in front of people and then take its good old time for anyone else? This is a behavior I'm really not a fan of and seems to happen regularly for me on 13.2.8 and 13.2.7 (AI4) We still don't have answers for sun glare - I watch an unhealthy amount of FSD videos and I still see this happening more than I'd like to Yes, snow is another story but initially this isn't really part of the rollout plan for TX and CA. Makes sense to solve for better conditions first Lane selection is still an issue where I'm at as you can see in this clip. Wish I would have had my camera ready for this but I was using FSD and the navigation just needed to go straight through the intersection. Instead, for no reason, it got into the left lane (left turn only) and stayed there. When I got the green arrow it just sat at the light (luckily no one was behind me so I stayed for a bit) and I eventually took over and just made the left turn You'd think basic things like this would be solved by now. Maybe it's the map data but even if it is, that's still a problem This will undoubtedly get misinterpreted and that's fine, but I've felt like some caution around Unsupervised would be healthy for certain pockets of the $TSLA community I'm still as confident as ever that Tesla will be the first to solve for generalized autonomy and I don't think it's close (especially in the US), but there's at least a non-zero percent chance it happens later than this June

8 drives in with FSD v14.1.2 and here are my thoughts: First off, Mad Max mode is AMAZING in traffic. Drove down to Hawthorne on my first drive in rush hour and it cut through traffic so well. An hour drive without any human input was great. The other Speed Profiles seem like they make slightly more difference than before. Standard is perfect on city streets, hurry is a bit quicker and the lane changes are more assertive than v14.1.1. Mad Max is a bit quick at times on city streets with nobody around, as expected. The assertive lane changes are my second favorite change, after mad max. It doesn’t wait around a bit like v14.1 and v14.1.1, it commits and sends it if safe, love it. I have NOT really seen any brake stutter yet, seems gone so far. I saw one instance of slight steering wheel shaking but that’s it over the last few hours. Few things to note with Mad Max. It’s fast, but it’s very safe. It’s not going to cut people off- it makes great decisions and they’re clearly calculated. It is NOT like the Altima with a missing bumper you see flying through traffic, it’s very controlled and I love it. This is exactly what we needed for LA and it’s almost how I like to drive through traffic and how you have to drive through LA. Lane changes in each profile seem improved in this build too. Definitely noticeably better and more confident. With parking garages, I’m seeing good performance, but to note- 1 of 4 garage attempts so far it went further from the ticket booth than it used to. Feels like maybe .1 had better lot performance, but I’m going to a lot of driving tonight to make sure. It definitely obeys no right on red signs, I’ve seen it listen to every single one perfectly so far, even obscure signs. It moves over for lane splitting motorcycles well before I can see them- this increases safety for everyone especially the motorcyclists and they appreciate it. A couple of them have waved at me tonight alone to thank me. Moved over for the two construction zones I have encountered thus far, and slowed down. Standard seems like the Goldilocks profile when on city streets with no traffic to follow- doesn’t speed much and usually travels at the perfect speed. Mad max is fast when nobody around- but really good speed control when there’s cars on the road. When you enable FSD from park, I love how quickly it gets going. If it’s safe, it goes right away, feels like it’s always waiting and ready to go. Pretty awesome improvement over v13 and continually impresses me. Autosteer and TACC are back, will get some miles accumulated on autosteer for those wondering if it’s changed at all, but I don’t think it has much if it did. Here’s a 15 minute zero intervention drive just now from Santa Monica supercharger to Rodeo Drive, where it obeyed a one way sign to the little parking lot and went the next entrance in once it saw. I’m going to drive this more through the night, and then will take it out during rush hour a lot. Huge shoutout to Tesla AI teams for getting these releases out so quickly. They’re making magic happen. More to come, but I’m loving what I’m seeing!

Israel And Its Supporters Are Causing Attacks On Jewish Institutions Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt gave a bizarre appearance on CNN in response to an attempted car bombing of a Michigan synagogue by a man whose Lebanese family members were killed by Israeli forces. “We are seeing Jewish people, the Jewish state, blamed for the war in the Middle East,” Greenblatt said. “That is wrong. It is wrong to scapegoat, it is wrong to hold Jewish people accountable for something you don’t like on the other side of the planet. And we really need leaders on all sides in politics, running for office, podcasters, to stop with the conspiracies, to stop with the accusations, and then tell us ‘but we oppose antisemitism’. You don’t get to say you’re opposed to hate if you’re trafficking in hateful conspiracy theories.” Now, at first glance it this might read like Greenblatt is taking the entirely reasonable position that it is wrong to blame Jewish Americans for the actions of the Israeli government. But take a closer look at his use of the phrase “the Jewish state”. What Greenblatt is actually doing here is claiming it’s an antisemitic conspiracy theory to blame the state of Israel for its war crimes, while simultaneously lumping all Jewish people in with the actions of that state. That’s what he’s doing when he says “Jewish people, the Jewish state” in the same breath while talking about Israeli acts of mass military violence. It’s so obnoxious how genocide apologists like Greenblatt make a living actively telling everyone that Jews and Judaism are inseparable from the acts of the Israeli government, but whenever there’s an extremist attack by someone who doesn’t distinguish between western Jews and the state of Israel it gets blamed on the pro-Palestine left. Pro-Palestine leftists perform endless verbal gymnastics to avoid conflating Jewish people with the state of Israel, while Israel and its supporters conflate them constantly. Yet we’re always the ones who get blamed whenever there’s a terror attack on a Jewish institution by someone enraged by Israel’s actions. Zionists are the ones doing everything they can to make sure people see the state of Israel as synonymous with Jews and Judaism. That is what they are doing every time they claim a criticism of Israel’s actions is hate speech against Jews. They are claiming that the nation and its government are one and the same as the entirety of the Jewish faith and its adherents. Pro-Palestine leftists have been doing the exact opposite. We go to great pains to make sure all our arguments are carefully worded to avoid being interpreted as an attack on the Jewish faith, making it clear that our grievance is with the state of Israel and the political ideology of Zionism which supports that state’s abusive nature. And then Israel apologists come in and smear those meticulously crafted arguments as a hateful attack on all Jews everywhere. Zionists are therefore responsible for the growing perception that our Jewish neighbors and countrymen are culpable for the abuses of the Israeli government. When more attacks on Jewish institutions occur (and they will), it is Israel and its supporters who will hold the blame for this, not the pro-Palestine left. I am not saying attacks on Jewish institutions should happen. I am not saying it will be good when they do happen. I’m saying it will happen, and when it happens it will be a terrible thing. And it will be the fault of Israel and its supporters. We’ve been running around like crazy trying to stop this, falling all over ourselves to thwart the Zionist efforts to conflate Jews with Israel, but our voices aren’t strong enough. We’re not the ones getting loudly amplified by every mass media outlet, they are. It’s not people like me getting invited to appear on CNN to talk to Wolf Blitzer, it’s people like Jonathan Greenblatt. So when we lose the narrative war on this front and the next extremist attack occurs, it won’t be our fault. It will be theirs. It will be the fault of Israel and its apologists. We fought them as hard as we could to prevent this, but they won. And the consequences of this will therefore rest squarely on their shoulders.

We go to great pains to make sure all our arguments are carefully worded to avoid being interpreted as an attack on the Jewish faith, making it clear that our grievance is with the state of Israel and the political ideology of Zionism which supports that state’s abusive nature. And then Israel apologists come in and smear those meticulously crafted arguments as a hateful attack on all Jews everywhere. Zionists are therefore responsible for the growing perception that our Jewish neighbors and countrymen are culpable for the abuses of the Israeli government. When more attacks on Jewish institutions occur (and they will), it is Israel and its supporters who will hold the blame for this, not the pro-Palestine left. I am not saying attacks on Jewish institutions should happen. I am not saying it will be good when they do happen. I’m saying it will happen, and when it happens it will be a terrible thing. And it will be the fault of Israel and its supporters. We’ve been running around like crazy trying to stop this, falling all over ourselves to thwart the Zionist efforts to conflate Jews with Israel, but our voices aren’t strong enough. We’re not the ones getting loudly amplified by every mass media outlet, they are. It’s not people like me getting invited to appear on CNN to talk to Wolf Blitzer, it’s people like Jonathan Greenblatt. So when we lose the narrative war on this front and the next extremist attack occurs, it won’t be our fault. It will be theirs. It will be the fault of Israel and its apologists. We fought them as hard as we could to prevent this, but they won. And the consequences of this will therefore rest squarely on their shoulders.

Here's my first drive on Tesla FSD V14.3.1. It feels polished vs 14.3 and it my opinion is ready for wide release. • With 14.3.1, you can now tap on the new "P" parking icon and bring up your different parking options • Mad Max mode on the highway feels slightly more conservative with top speed (favors low 80s more often), but will now get to the right lanes sooner to prepare for exiting the highway. In this first drive, Mad Max did not go above 83mph, despite no cars around me most of the time. Follow distance is also more comfortable. I like all these things. • I'm having zero brake stabbing issues on 14.3.1, whereas I had a couple on my first drive with 14.3 • Urban lane selection is better vs 14.3 • Navigation routes and occasional parking alignment still need some work, but that's not a reason to hold back wide release. It still surprises me how much quicker V14.3 reacts to things. If a car pulls out of a parking spot as you drive by, FSD hits the brakes before you even know what's going on. The 20% better reaction time is definitely noticeable.

Farewell to International Space Station! This is truly a special place, special mission, and special team that makes it happen. It is a bittersweet departure today – I have a keen awareness that I may never be back here, and even if I was, it would be at a different time with a different crew. This chapter is over. Spaceflight has always been a life goal, and it has turned into a life-fulfilling endeavor – but not for the reasons I thought growing up. When I was young, I pictured the launch, the incredible ball of fire and the acceleration, the spacewalks (how could you not wonder what it’s like to be in that suit?), and I was fascinated by the shuttles, capsules, and stations. But as I complete this second mission living and working in space, what draws me to this job is the people. Experiences like this are amazing, but the relationships we build that make it possible are the “why.” Every day, this mission depends on people from all over the world, of different nationalities, races, religions, and cultures. It depends on government and commercial entities, it depends on all political parties, and it depends on commitment to an unchanged goal over many years and decades. It depends on people dedicated to being part of something bigger than themselves, whose names may never be known but who wake up every day to make the world a better place and to be part of something they will be proud to tell their grandkids about. History will look kindly upon them. Humans have always had a propensity to explore … across lands and oceans, up mountains, and into the sky. We as a species will never stop wondering what else is out there, and what it would be like to go. But then, in the words of TS Elliot, “…at the end of all our exploring, will be to arrive where we started, and know the place for the first time.” Crew-10 is on its way home.

I just built a self-improving second brain in Claude Code 🤯 A brain that runs your brand: every tool reads from it, it's wired to your live data, and it gets smarter every week. All running on the Claude Agent SDK. Perfect for DTC brands and agencies whose AI output sounds generic because every new chat starts from zero. If you're re-explaining your brand to AI every single time — re-pasting the voice guidelines, re-describing the customer you've described a hundred times, re-uploading the same positioning doc you uploaded yesterday, and still editing for an hour to strip out the generic phrasing... A brand second brain fixes the entire loop: → Build 3 foundation files once: brand DNA, voice, and customer → Every skill you create reads from them automatically → Wire in live data — your ad account, competitor ads, customer reviews → A weekly routine refreshes the brain with what's actually working → Every output comes back on-brand on the first pass No re-briefing AI on every chat. No hour of editing to undo generic phrasing. No brain that goes stale the week after you build it. What a second brain gives you: → The exact 3-file foundation that runs the whole system → The skill structure that makes every tool brand-aware by default → The live-data wiring that keeps it grounded in reality → The weekly self-improvement loop that keeps it sharp → The cold-start sequence to stand it all up from zero Built 100% in Claude Code. I put together the full playbook with the file structure, the wiring, and the exact setup. Want it for free? > Like this post > Comment "BRAIN" And I'll send it over (must be following so I can DM)

I had one of those moments today that really showed me how much Tesla’s FSD has improved. We were heading to our next destination, and I turned on FSD in my Cybertruck. Instead of taking the obvious route out of the parking lot, it made a turn and drove straight into a parking garage. At that point, my significant other was yelling at me to disengage bc she didn’t want to waste time. Her argument was simple… FSD will probably get confused in a situation like this and we may end up going on an infinite loop FSD ride here. A parking garage is a pretty challenging environment if you think about it… multiple levels, ramps, tight turns, parked cars, limited visibility, and signs that can be easy to miss. But I told her I wanted to see what it would do. My thinking was that the latest version of FSD is much better at understanding their surroundings, reading signs, recognizing where they are, and making decisions based on what they see in real time. Sure enough, after realizing it wasn’t on the correct path, my Cybertruck kept moving, analyzed the situation, followed the garage layout, went all the way to the top floor, found the exit, and drove itself back out. Then it continued toward our destination without me touching the wheel. What impressed me wasn’t that it made a wrong turn… tbh human drivers do that all the time. What impressed me was that it recognized the situation, adapted, and successfully recovered on its own. Years ago, that probably would have been the end of the experiment bc it would go on an infinite loop, eventually resulting in a disengagement. Today, with FSD v14.3.4, it felt like watching the AI handle an unexpected problem and work its way through it. For me, that’s one of the biggest signs of progress in Tesla FSD, where it’s not 100% perfect, yet being able to make sense of a mistake, figuring out a solution, and moving forward.

Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque was asked about a comment Damian Priest made recently about the same talent being in the top spots, and answers Jamie Iovine’s question on how he feels about the current generation of stars going forward and the “changing of the guard” right now in WWE — “Look, I get that. If you’re the guy that wants to take the spot, it’s frustrating when there’s guys above you that have the spot. We’re in a period of time where there’s a lot of top performers in top spots that over time have earned those spots and are selling tickets and are incredibly popular. So you really have to do something. The narrative of ‘It’s my turn. I’ve been here for a while’. There’s no turns. That’s not how it works. You earn the spot. Believe me. If somebody is getting over more than somebody else, we move that person into the spot and move the other person down. But it’s not just that, it’s not just they’re getting the loud crowd reaction. Are they going to be good in the spot? Are they going to hold up their end of the bargain? Are they going to screw up if we give it to them? Are they going to make a mistake that we regret? — There’s all those things factored in. And I love the fact that sometimes, talent are like ‘Well, it’s frustrating.’ Great, that means work harder. Get yourself there. Figure it out. Figure out the way. Figure how it gets done. I’ve seen a million talent succeed because of what they do. Not because storyline or creative. ‘They gave them the spot’. 99% of the time in this business, the person gets over then gets the push. That’s how it works. That’s how it’s supposed to work. You go do you then we follow it, because otherwise, most of the time, they will choke on it if it’s not what the fans believe in. Big believer in if you want the spot, go take it. Whenever anybody says ‘I don’t know why I’m not in that spot’…well I don’t know, are you more over than Cody? Roman? Punk? Liv? IYO? The people that are in that spot get there. Make those crowd reactions. Whatever you need to make it happen, that’s what we’re all here to do. I love that mentality because I think it makes people work harder, and if they’re not willing to work to get the spot then you shouldn’t have it anyway.” — via #SummerSlam Post-Show

There’s something new on every page! I’ve written often about reading with your baby, noting that - at the very earliest stages - it’s okay to start small (a minute or less) and not to get too discouraged if your baby spends more time attending to your face than the book itself… Or even expresses greater interest in chewing on a board book than reading it. But today let’s see the flip side of this coin! I couldn’t help but be taken by just how engaged this little guy is with the book dad is sharing - his eyes wide and laser focused and his face lighting up with delight over the surprises revealed on every page. (Accentuated, of course, by his father’s melodic and enthusiastic narration.) It’s not where all children begin (so, again, don’t be discouraged if your baby doesn’t react with the same initial interest and enthusiasm) but it sure is fun to see. And rest assured that with age and exposure, your baby will get there too! Read, read, read with your baby. This lovely example was shared to FB by Baby Love.

Ok first impressions using the Trinity + comparison to MAWL C1+ Power: Very much on par with each other. The Trinity comes with instructions on how to jailbreak it, so it’s not playing by the same FDA rules as the MAWL. It’s slightly more powerful. Switchology: The MAWL still reigns supreme, but not by much. I’m very impressed with the Trinitys ability to switch between wide and narrow illuminator on the fly. While not as dummy proof and instant as the MAWL, it’s still good. I always talk about Switchology with lasers, because in real used it’s incredibly important to be able to manipulate your laser and illuminator to fit your environment. Raw power means nothing if it can’t be used (or more often it hinders you) Durability and zero retention will be something we discover over time. I can say from personal experience the MAWL has been a tank. It’s taken countless impacts, drops, direct impacts with sims, cold, freezing, submersion, extreme heat, and has never once failed or even stuttered. I HIGHLY doubt the trinity will match it, but I can’t expect it to at 1/10th the cost. BE Meyers make an incredible laser, and actually make it here in America. It’s the gold standard for a reason. And I’ll always support that. That being said, for the average prepared citizen, it’s probably worth considering options that are more affordable. We are finally getting lasers that meet a level of acceptable performance at an affordable price point, and that’s exciting.

Tested FSD v12.3 in downtown Chicago yesterday — zero disengagements / interventions in the first 30 minutes despite incredibly dense traffic & pedestrians during St. Patrick's Day festivities. Extremely impressive. A couple of my favorite moments are at 5:17 and 7:00. Overall, v12.3 seems like a major step forward and I'm excited to keep testing. It feels smoother, much more natural, and more capable of creative decision making in challenging scenarios. My camera overheated, but I tested for a total of about an hour and a half in this same environment. The most impressive moments were lost, unfortunately, but it flawlessly handled back-to-back extremely complex intersections, which were all-way stop signs with 6 lanes of traffic and 50+ pedestrians. Pretty mind-blowing. Throughout the whole drive, there were 3 disengagements and no other interventions: 1) Tried to turn one block too early, the wrong way on a one-way. Not great, but not a show stopper long-term, IMO. 2) At an intersection, shortly after the light changed to green, there was a fire truck with its sirens on approaching on the cross street. Visibility was obscured by a large SUV in the lane to the left of the vehicle. I head the sirens getting louder and the SUV stopped proceeding, so I had to brake. Without audio input, I don't know how FSD could ever properly react to this situation due to the occluded vision. 3) In heavy traffic, FSD moved out of the lane we needed to be in. It tried to get back over, but there was not enough time or space, so it proceeding to a new route. This led to a planned u-turn in extremely heavy traffic. I got a notice saying FSD could not complete the maneuver, and FSD kept going to the next intersection, which led to the same plan. It attempted to start the maneuver, but I had to take over. The video shows how crazy Chicago was yesterday, St. Patrick's Day celebrations are huge here. If you are not used to this environment, many drivers would struggle. FSD handled things calmly and confidently, with only one instance that I recall annoying any other drivers due to being too slow or cautious, something that would happen a lot on previous versions of FSD. FSD v12.3 seems like a major step forward from my early testing, and hopefully it provides the proper foundation to accelerate the rate of progress significantly. It's not perfect, and it's still going to take time, but I am excited. Congrats to the Tesla team.

I am completely blown away!!! It’s midnight and I’ve just wrapped up my first ever day on FSD v14.3.3!! I honestly am in awe at what a professional driver my car is now! It has gone from being a cautious grandma, to an assertive boss!! I doubted some of the guys on a space early this morning that it would be able to handle Australian roundabouts with expertise, and boy was I mistaken!!! This version NAILS roundabouts with ease! Not only does it enter them at a perfect speed, it accelerates out of them with full force and confidence! Legitimately brought a smile to my face. It’s now fully proactive and asserts itself with lane changes and makes sure that it gets into the right lane WELL IN ADVANCE before it has to take an exit. It now also consistently INDICATES every time 2 lanes merge into one. And the moment there’s a speed zone change it reacts immediately to either accelerate or de-accelerate without no delay! Legitimately addresses all the complaints we previously had with FSD here in Australia! Oh! And not to mention, it can find a supercharger in a basement of a building and park automatically now! When before it would bail at tight corners in underground carparks. This version feels like it now honours my time. It’s incredibly fast to react, decisive to make a move and has no hesitation in accelerating quickly to get up to speed. There’s no longer a trade-off with choosing FSD or getting to your destination in a hurry. It’ll make sure you get there safely and effectively! I freaking love FSD!!! Thank you so much to the incredible team and everyone else that made this happen! I am incredibly over the moon with this! Lots of love 🫶 Enjoy my full 2 hour video of FSD v14 here Down Under!! 🇦🇺🇦🇺

It now also consistently INDICATES every time 2 lanes merge into one. And the moment there’s a speed zone change it reacts immediately to either accelerate or de-accelerate without no delay! Legitimately addresses all the complaints we previously had with FSD here in Australia! Oh! And not to mention, it can find a supercharger in a basement of a building and park automatically now! When before it would bail at tight corners in underground carparks. This version feels like it now honours my time. It’s incredibly fast to react, decisive to make a move and has no hesitation in accelerating quickly to get up to speed. There’s no longer a trade-off with choosing FSD or getting to your destination in a hurry. It’ll make sure you get there safely and effectively! I freaking love FSD!!! Thank you so much to the incredible team and everyone else that made this happen! I am incredibly over the moon with this! Lots of love 🫶 Enjoy my full 2 hour video of FSD v14 here Down Under!! 🇦🇺🇦🇺

Robots will bring billionaire living to a lot more people. I had the blessing to eat with Guy Savoy several times. One of the best chefs in the world. He, and other top chefs taught me about the importance of getting fresh ingredients. Here is how robots and World Models will bring that and what do I mean by “everything as a service?” In three years I will have this conversation with my 1X Neo humanoid robot: “Hey Neo I want to upgrade our food to billionaire level.” “I can do that. Food as a service costs $500 a month. I will buy only hand grown fresh organic food and I will prepare amazing meals for you and your family.” Where is the supply chain for such food? Farmers’ markets where everything is fresh and organic. You gotta stop buying at grocery stores to upgrade your diet. “Hey Neo here are the keys to Tesla Robotaxi. And here is my credit card. Start up food as a service.” Neo will take an autonomous car to the market. “But Neo how do you know where to go?” “Well a guy on X did a video of the farmer’s market nearby.” “I watched it, and now know roughly the kinds of things I can get there.” We are too late to start today, the market is closed now, but we can start next week. Look at this video the way Grok does. I am playing humanoid today. In one visit my Neo will ingest all of this into its World Model. In the second visit it will get even better. In the third visit even better. World models are going to be real time by the end of next year from a variety of companies. فيصل Tesla Robotaxi already serves both our home and the market. Our Tesla drove us there and already knows where it is. Grok is already a world model. In a few minutes it can tell you what it learned by watching this video. It watches all my videos before distributing them to you. So it knows how not to overwhelm @jason’s feed with my prolific posting. It will get a lot better soon. But after three trips to this farmer’s market my robot will know everything about this market including the names of the farmers. Watch this video, you meet one. Grok can do a RAG search and learn everything about him, including that he doesn’t have a Website, and only posts on Facebook. Also that he takes Apple Pay. It already knows everything it sees. The names of the vegetables, fruits, nuts, and what is ravioli. One vendor sells fresh ravioli made early this morning. If you are freaked out by privacy have your Neo stay in the garage until it is time to do something for you. In three years I will be eating fresh food with my brother in law while football is on the TV. If you don’t have a robot you won’t eat as well unless you are a billionaire who can afford to pay the human to shop and cook for you. The Robotaxi network starts up next year (without humans). The world models get good next year. By 2030 every one of you will have a robot in your home, at least part time. Who has the best world model? Tesla. Who understands the real world better? Grok. (I didn’t give this video to anyone else). Who soon will have the best humanoid? Tesla. Which company already has a Robotaxi in my driveway? Tesla. Which company has the best video ingestion engine? Tesla. Which company is about to turn on a real time world model? xAI. Which company would you want to invest in? Tesla and xAI. Which is why, if you are a Tesla investor and you didn’t vote for Tesla to invest in xAI you hurting yourself.. Everything as a service is about to arrive. Everyone who can afford a $20,000 robot, which can be financed will have it next year. I will. Anyone worried about privacy has no idea how useful this all will be to make your lives better. And how much money it will make for a robot company to put it all together. And only Tesla has all the pieces to make the meal.
