Exclusive: Musk Cut Basic Autopilot From New Vehicles to Boost FSD Subscriptions
Sources say Musk personally made the call to drop Autosteer from new Teslas, a move that pushes buyers toward FSD and closer to his 10 million subscription goal.

Jensen Huang must go
We argue in @TheEconomist that his position is untenable
"Like many powerful leaders, he came to believe that he was too important for the normal rules to apply to him."
But he is not the only one. Howard Lutnick has failed to stem the flow of chips to China. More heads should roll
This is very cringe. We have enough anti Elon/Tesla coverage.
Teslas vehicles are the safest ones you can put your famines into and that hasn’t changed.
We'll have some exclusive news later today that highlights Elon chasing profits and self interest over better/safer vehicles.
Stay tuned...

The claims that livestock are dying around data centers is a conspiracy theory based on totally unproven claims from a single TX farmer. Data centers are also not obliterating the bee population globally as is claimed in this video
JUST IN: The House of Representatives has voted to BLOCK Thomas Massie’s resolution to impeach Pete Hegseth.

An open offer to Tesla: We fully support putting Cybercab first, and we’d be glad to take the Cybertruck line off your hands.
We’d fund it with a consortium of investors and run it at no cost to Tesla’s floor space, headcount, or focus. All of that goes to Cybercab. Cybercab gets first call on battery cells too. We’ll wait our turn.
Tesla gains incremental profit: a license fee, plus FSD and Robotaxi network revenues on every vehicle built.
We’d build the Cybertruck, a three-row CyberSUV, and an unmanned CyberCargo hauler. More autonomous miles, across every surface of this planet and beyond.
Worth a conversation?
“Musk” director Alex Gibney says he doesn’t believe Elon Musk “switched votes” in the 2024 presidential election, but suggests Musk used Starlink to intercept election reporting signals “to intercept signals of reporting from ballot places” to learn the results early:
“It puts in your mind this idea that Starlink is not just a means of communication; it’s a means of surveillance and control.”
In the doc, Gibney highlights a text chain between Musk and Ashley St. Clair where Musk appeared confident about Trump’s victory before the results were known: “I found an anomaly in the matrix, and I have 10,000 space lasers that help me understand this.”

Fundman is having a 0.1%er crash out this morning. Did someone put too much caffeine in his skinny mocha cappuccino latte this morning?
Replying to @JCChristopher
You totally missing the point. Do you want to force everyone to use ride share and pay per ride? Or give people choice to own and use rideshare? Such bad take, this is what Robotaxi network was supposed to solve, plan was we could use our car when we want and put it on Robotaxi network.

Notice that the cybertruck announcements came from Elon and not Tesla? Seems like he had a temper tantrum over something emotional and lacking logic and pulled the trigger without referring to the board, the customers, or anyone else.
When the tech guy who doesnt own a Tesla Cybertruck tells you that its a mistake to cancel it. Its because I recognize its significance to our culture, our country and more importantly what it symbolizes to our future leaders.
The Cybertruck is so much more than just a vehicle. Its hardcore Americana at its finest and we should do everything possible to preserve it! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Replying to @elonmusk
If you do that brother, you will permanently fracture Tesla supporters. The Austin Mayor & new Texas Gov both sign executive actions banning the Cybercab from Austin and Texas. Then what? At that point we have no Cybertruck, nor Cybercab.
Need to let things stabilize with the new Congress and most importantly. You created this sexy iconic, American truck. You have inspired a generation of kids who see the Cybertruck for how great it is. The problem is they may never have the chance to experience it. Am I wrong when I say the Cybertruck embodies American Exceptionalism, Innovation & technological supremacy??
America & Americans need the Cybertruck because it gives us something material that we can aspire to own, aspire to engineer & most importantly aspire to make. Here we have the SR71 of ground vehicles & you want to cancel it! Dont do it bro, let the American icon live! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Uber has Lyft. iOS has Android. Boeing has Airbus. And somehow Bing still exists. Thinking Waymo, which is already running thousands of real paid commercial rides a week, is just going to "drop dead" because Tesla got a new city with a bigger geo fence is pure delusion man.

RIP TerraFab
Replying to @OwenSparks
It is insanely fucking hard to build a high-volume factory. That’s why.
Prototypes are trivial by comparison.
I have serious doubts that he could have even pulled off TeraFab. He's bluffing the investors.
Advanced chip manufacturing is not something you brute-force with floor space. ASML's current EUV order/customer picture already stretches years out, and SpaceX is not on that list.
On top of that, Tesla/SpaceX do not appear to have the semiconductor leadership needed to run this. One director-level hire from Intel is not a TSMC-style manufacturing organization. The real bottleneck is experienced lithography, process, yield, metrology, equipment, packaging, and supply-chain people. That talent pool is tiny, and most of them are already inside existing fabs and tool vendors.
