My view is it’s pure hypeware until proven otherwise.

This isn’t Tesla hate from my side either. The general consensus from enthusiasts since the beginning is Tesla is way off the mark. But the latest self driving upgrades using more LLM tech has apparently been a big step up. By that I mean going from poor assisted self driving to good assisted self driving. Getting it from there to no driver behind the wheel is another matter all together. Maybe they had a single jump or maybe it’s a new path of consistent progress, I have no idea.

I’m not expecting much from Tesla. I would absolutely love to be wrong.

Expecting more from baidu, pony.ai and zoox more than Tesla. Hell even BYD with the Chinese backing it has might beat Tesla.

I’ve been to Los Angeles and Austin. Is San Francisco seen as a bright sunny desert climate?

Was hoping at this point in time Waymo would be expanding more aggressively.

But no one else seems immediately on the horizon and Waymo is consistently expanding well so they are doing very well indeed.

I’m excited for the last mile problem to be solved and be able to cycle on roads without drivers that actually wish I was dead or playing about on their phone. Also I hate driving.

In a way.

But there was a lot of lies that represented legitimate concerns and remain didn’t really do a good enough job of bringing leave along with them. Pleanty of “we got lied too, no on told us”. No no no no. Remain clearly said the truth and you listened to the lies.

Also fish was fucking weird. Seems like people will die over fish.

But people were told immigration would go down. People have been wanting immigration to go down for 60 years and it’s never happened. First direct vote about immigration going down is obviously going to be a big factor. Didn’t happen though so far right will win soon.
