Latest Developments 🌍

Full Self-Driving for all Tesla Buyers 🚗

Elon Musk has made it mandatory for every new Tesla buyer in North America to experience the company’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) system firsthand before they drive off with their vehicle. This initiative requires employees to install and demonstrate the latest FSD version 12.3.1 to familiarize customers with its capabilities through a short test ride. To get more users onboard, Musk has further announced a one-month free trial of FSD for all U.S. Teslas capable of the system.

Currently, Tesla offers two subscription tiers on the basis of the hardware and software configurations in the car:

• Basic Autopilot to FSD: If your Tesla vehicle currently has the Basic Autopilot package, upgrading to the FSD capability will cost $199.00 per month. The Basic Autopilot package includes features like Traffic-Aware Cruise Control and Autosteer, which assist in maintaining a safe speed and steering within clearly marked lanes.

• Enhanced Autopilot to FSD: For vehicles equipped with Enhanced Autopilot, the upgrade to FSD capability is priced at $99.00 per month. Enhanced Autopilot adds functionalities such as Navigate on Autopilot, Auto Lane Change, Autopark, Summon, and Smart Summon to the basic features.

Musk claims that “Almost no one actually realizes how well (supervised) FSD actually works.” While many FSD features are still in Beta and the features are still improving, the more customers test FSD, the better Tesla will be able to make it.

Hot Takes 🔥

1. Spoke to a Microsoft engineer on the GPT-6 training cluster project. He kvetched about the pain they're having provisioning infiniband-class links between GPUs in different regions.
   Me: "why not just colocate the cluster in one region?" Him: "Oh yeah we tried that first. We can't put more than 100K H100s in a single state without bringing down the power grid."🤯 ~

2. Cheat sheet for world domination in 2024
   > insanely hype up AI
   > claim super intelligence / AGI is around the corner
   > create hype, mystery, and intrigue
   > claim it can be very dangerous
   > insist it should be regulated
   > ensure that the regulation kills open-source
   > restrict foundational AI model development to a handful of labs
   > raise boatloads of money to establish AI dominance
   Total World Domination Achieved!! ~
