I don't think this works very well. I tested with a pretty popular reddit userMrPennywhistle, aka Destin from Smarter every day:
"write a reddit post about monitors in the style of reddit user MrPennywhistle"
and the response it gave me was incredibly generic and didn't sound like Destin at all:
"Hey there fellow Redditors!
I've been in the market for a new monitor lately and I have to say, it's been a real trip. There are so many options out there and it's hard to know what to choose. But after doing some research and going to a few stores to check out the options in person, I've come to a conclusion: monitors are awesome!
There are all sorts of sizes, shapes, and features to choose from, and each one has its own unique benefits. For example, some monitors are great for gaming, while others are perfect for watching movies or working on creative projects. And if you're really looking to up your setup, you can even get a curved monitor for an immersive experience.
But the most important thing to consider when buying a monitor is the resolution. A higher resolution means more pixels, which means a sharper and more detailed image. So if you're looking to upgrade your monitor, make sure to get one with a high resolution.
Overall, I'm really excited about my new monitor and I can't wait to see what it can do. Have any of you guys recently gotten a new monitor? Let me know in the comments!
The people you've linked to were all banned on twitter for impersonation, in contravention of a rule that predated Musk's acquisition. They were banned for pretending to be someone they are not, not for making fun
Twitter started more aggressively enforcing the rule after the rollout of paid verification.
There are plenty of people on twitter who make fun of and/or disagree with Musk... including the engineers that publically disagree(d) with him
Seems like that point only applies to the first link? More than a couple of accounts I follow have been banned in the last weeks for just making jokes about Tesla or Elon.
But it isnt, I would say, conspiratorial or personal, its just galvanized fan boys reporting accounts. And I assume with the diminished staff they are just airing on the side of banning then going through thorough reviews or whatever. Which is still pretty bad.
Exactly, the tweet is basically factually incorrect. It implies Tesla is mostly about the credits when in reality it's a nice cherry on a really big cake for them. And it's not like they are getting favorable treatment here (which is another thing implied by the tweet). A lot of those credits exist because companies like GM receive them too and the US government just decided to inject a lot of dollars in renewable infrastructure. Only fair that Tesla gets a chunk of that given that they do invest a lot in exactly that kind of thing.
Also, people keep talking about Tesla as if it is just a car company. They now have several booming businesses related to grid batteries, domestic batteries, solar panels, charging infrastructure, and a few other things. They are becoming a virtual power plant even. And they are about to become a major semi truck producer (planning to ramp up to 50K trucks per year over the next few years). The cars are still a huge chunk of their revenue and profit of course but they have healthy growth in their other businesses as well. I think grid batteries are about 1 billion $ revenue per quarter at this point for example.
>Thread time. Here's the thing about @tesla It's not a car company. Tesla is a company that has to make cars in order to sell its real product: Emissions Credits.
It uses 'is' not 'was', in three different places. In English that means they're claiming it's currently the case, not a historical account like you're mistakenly thinking.
Because Tomlinson starts out by talking about 2012?? The company got to where they were on the basis of regulatory credit exchanges for the majority of its relatively long history. It is no longer some startup darling, mind you, it's got years on it comparatively: https://www.businessadministrationinformation.com/news/the-t... If another 10 years pass where credits do not significantly contribute to its profits, then we can make a case for a fundamental change.
You are comparing the revenue from the credits to the profits (or that's what the Bloomberg links you are giving do). That's specious. The credits aren't given to Tesla for free, they earn them by building and selling the cars. The credits are now and have been a small part of revenue.
Everyone is acting like this is a totally unintentional reduction in headcount...
Let's wait to see exactly how many people are left (if we ever even hear this number?), but it seems nobody remembers the reports from a month ago saying he wants to reduce it by 75%?
That video is from 2020, but Tesla didn't remove radar until 2021. Meaning that the crash occurred with radar still active, which I feel just backs up what Karpathy was saying.
Mr. Rajkumar of Carnegie Mellon, who reviewed the video and data at the request of The Times, said Autopilot might have failed to brake for the Explorer because the Tesla’s cameras were facing the sun or were confused by the truck ahead of the Explorer. The Tesla was also equipped with a radar sensor, but it appears not to have helped.
“A radar would have detected the pickup truck, and it would have prevented the collision,” Mr. Rajkumar said in an email. “So the radar outputs were likely not being used.”
Tesla later said that during the crash, Autopilot’s camera could not distinguish between the white truck and the bright sky. Tesla has never publicly explained why the radar did not prevent the accident.
Very impressive reaction from the guy in the video, but I don't think he's using this to tell the heading. It looks like he also has a compass on his watch band as you can see at 1:03.
> 37% greater pixels-per-inch. And 1.3x larger color gamut
Is referring to the display resolution inside the headset
> Full-color mixed reality, with resolution 4X higher compared to Quest 2
Is referring to the camera resolution on the outside of the headset
> slimmed down the optical stack by over 40% compared to Quest 2
The are using a new technology, pancake lens, giving effectively the same (or better?) performance but taking less space to do so.
> Real-time expression tracking
You can turn it on or off as a user. I don't know if they've optimised it to only "run" when the software you're interacting with is setup to use it or not.
Tesla counts any incidents that occurred within five seconds of FSD/Autopilot disengaging as being "under autopilot". Given the driver is meant to be paying attention and ready to take over at any time 5 seconds is plenty of time to take over (and come to a complete stop from ~70mph)
Oh cool, it'll point your car at a child and give you 5 seconds to fix its own mistake! How generous! What a great system! Fully autonomous driving except for when it makes a mistake...
