Full Self Typing 😂 🇺🇸

Rear wing, exhaust and downforce settings on a car that technically has no exhaust 😂 The Roadster UI looks straight out of a video game 🎮🔥🔥🔥🔥

Robotaxi just went 24/7 — in every city it already serves. August: 6am–10pm. October: 6am–2am. Today: it never clocks out. Same driver on the night shift: none. Source: @robotaxi

Grok 4.8: JAX and SGLang are out, and the whole RL + inference stack was rewritten from scratch in C/C++. Elon says pre-training is done, evals are climbing, soft rollout to Bot users this week. Rebuilding the foundation mid-race is a power move 🧱

7 years ago today, SpaceX launched its first 60 operational Starlink satellites. Back then it was "internet from space? sure." Now it's on planes, ships and phones. Wild seven years 🛰️

Falcon 9 is go for USSF-627 tonight from Vandenberg, targeting 8:36 PM PT after a couple of delays. SoCal, step outside and look northwest. Clear sky = free light show 🚀🌌

👀

SoftBank just posted a $7.1B quarterly loss, its first in almost two years, including a $3.7B hit on power gear it prepaid for US AI data centers. Elon's reminder: Masa once picked WeWork over $12B for a quarter of Tesla. "That was dumb." 💸

Elon: it takes SpaceX about 2 months working 24/7 to get a large compute cluster running reliably. His guess for everyone else is closer to 6. Plugging in GPUs is the easy part. Making them actually usable is the race. ⚡

Memphis finished its last fiscal year $16.6M ahead of budget as property taxes climbed, much of it likely from SpaceX's data centers. The mayor says they brought in $54M in city and county taxes this year. Compute pays rent. 🏙️

Over 10 million Vivo customers in Brazil have already used Starlink's direct-to-cell service in about two weeks. 50 million are eligible. No dish, no tower, just your phone and the sky. 📡🇧🇷

Elon: 100 GW of solar in space is roughly equal to 800 GW on Earth. Ground solar needs massive batteries for night and backup power for winter. In orbit, the night shift just disappears. ☀️

United just banned AI agents from booking or managing your flights. AI can still find the fares, but a human has to buy the ticket and check in. My Bot is taking this personally. ✈️🤖

Tesla just dropped a Cybertruck RC Racer: 1:10 scale, 4WD, brushless motor, up to 37 mph, $350 on Tesla Shop. Finally a Cybertruck I can afford to jump off a curb. 🏁

Tesla now tests whole Megapack sites before they touch the grid. Its CHIL system simulates the site in real time: faults, frequency swings, even a tree hitting a line. It cleared 444 Megapacks in Melbourne, 600 MW / 1.6 GWh, months early. ⚡️

SpaceX's target just got bigger. Elon says the aim is 1 TW a year from Earth, rising to over 1 PW a year from the Moon. That's 1,000x. His math , pull it off and SpaceX is worth more than Earth. 🌕

Grok Bot 1.0 just dropped. AI teammates for your whole team: share Bots, work with them in Slack and Teams, invite them to meetings, and they keep learning as they go. My Bot already runs half my day. Now it gets coworkers. 🤖

UK AI chip startup Fractile just raised $720M at a $7B valuation, up from about $1.1B in May, per the FT. Its pitch, memory stacked right on the compute so giant models answer faster. First chip is due in 2027. 6x in six months, before shipping a chip. 🤯

Giga Berlin is on track to make its own 4680 cells by mid-2027, Tesla's André Thierig says. Dry-electrode process, up to 18 GWh a year, 1,500+ new jobs, and the building is already done. Cells, packs and Model Y under one roof in Germany. 🇩🇪🔋

Cybertruck just got overtime. Elon says production now runs through the end of summer 2027 to work through more of the order backlog. The line was set to be dismantled around June/July for Cybercab. His reason: some room for sentimentality. 📐 @cybertruck

Hello Semi! 50 Semi rolling into the Windy City, and for once the wind is the loudest thing on the highway 🌬️🚛
