All manufacturers have for some time been required by regulators to report any accident where an autonomous or partially autonomous system was active within 30 seconds of an accident.

That is not correct. Tesla counts any accident within 5 seconds of Autopilot/FSD turning off as the system being involved. Regulators extend that period to 30 seconds, and Tesla must comply with that when reporting to them.

No matter how many times it's posted, it doesn't change the fact that it's just a large bunch of hallucinations.

It's a one-time performance based compensation package split into multiple tranches, with options worth 1% of stock being provided as payment for each one, with up to 12 in total.

The AI didn't leak anything, it's hallucinating and connecting dots that don't exist, like the the US exit of the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty. It's putting it up there right next to the founding of SpaceX and writing a

Autopilot did not even exist as a public feature in 2013. It was first mentioned as being in development then, but the cars didn't even have any hardware for it until September 2014.

There is a reason accidents are done on a per mile basis, so let's make a quick example to show why. There is two cars, car A and car B. Each driven by 1000 drivers each year. Car A: The drivers drive a total 10000 km each year, and 20

They did not say Starship was a requirement for Starlink, they said they could use it when ready to speed up the rollout. SpaceX has been launching the Gen2 satellites, originally intended to be launched on Starship, on Falcon 9 instead.

I also got it, but when I did a hard refresh two minutes ago it worked again.

TL;DR Yes, the numbers work out. Starlink is not intended to replace terrestrial connectivity. It is intended to provide service to everyone on the planet that can not get terrestrial connectivity, and those areas that can never get terrest

Not necessarily. Tesla actually developed a proprietary alloy for their giga casting that removed the need for heat treatment, as the large castings tended to deform during it. On the plus side, also meant they could remove that process ste

While I don't know about the details of what all the other EVs have, most of the legacy auto EVs model year 2020 and earlier were basically built on ICE platforms, and mostly have the same features except having an EV drivetrain. Many

> In contrast, Tesla redacts all narrative and does not confirm injury severity. In over 700 cases, around 95% of their reports, they choose not to investigate whether an injury or fatality occurred. The primary reason why all those Tesl

The secret sauce isn't in the batteries themselves but the engineering of the entire drivetrain, the battery management system and so on. Tesla is consistently in the top of EV drivetrain efficiency for their models, allowing them to g

The only source for that is a single blog post on tumblr, with zero actual proof of anything stated in it. It's gossip at best.

It is very important to note that that website has a clear bias against Tesla by its very nature, it's trying to pain Teslas as death machines. I've never heard of any page like this for any other manufacturer. Case in point, Case
