FY26 projection is how to interpret current run rate, though this is a shallow estimate if growth exceeds 50% or 100% in some periods

The jobs data has said there’s 4% unemployment for the last 28 years. The unemployed people just don’t count.

Agree. Most requests are not complicated and can route to something cheaper. The routers are going to be so important to manage agent cost

Disney is a more advanced robotics company than Tesla. Let that sink in

Wow I can take a driverless Tesla on NYE in SF again for the 9th year in a row!

They were ordered to use Phi to write them so they can get back to Teams meetings and not waste any time on IC work

5th year in a row of 1 million robotaxis and we have 10 cars deployed with safety operators in a factory town with no laws. Regulation is not the problem. It’s bad hardware, bad software, bad labels, failed training runs, and over 40 dead customers who believed a Tesla could drive itself.
Tick tock.

I’d put them about $250 million on revenues, $250 million in Anthropic or frontier bills (0 gross margin) and 250 people with 50 cranking out fine tuned models that can cut the frontier bill in half.

TSLA is supposed to be at a 50% CAGR. It’s down 20% on automotive growth. So it’s 46% off course. Those are the consumers who think the CEO is a Nazi. That’s how bad it is.

Anyone who has FSD purchased should get free rides on the Tesla Bozotaxi within 20 miles of their house. We paid for autonomy and got really good eye tracking software.

"Email exchanges between Tesla & CA regulators obtained by Politico reveal a comical discrepancy between what Elon Musk is saying his Robotaxi services can do publicly, & what the automaker is actually telling authorities behind closed doors."

Try not to act shocked.

AI is not a bandwagon. It’s dozens of warring tribes, cribbing each others research. It’s hard to find your tribe in this, mostly you get conscripted into one that opens the door for you.

The Biden administration had wire and securities fraud charges in motion against Musk for doing this.

Elon Musk bought the election for Donald Trump because doing this, lying about the current and future capabilities of the vehicles he sells, is the foundation of his entire fortune.

On this, you mostly want to put GPU in 3 data centers in 3 US regions. Spreading it out is not what the customers want. Most of them need East and West and a 50/50 split. So, no new sites needed. Just larger sites.
