NEWS: Elon Musk has confirmed that HW3 can't achieve Unsupervised FSD.
"For customers that have bought FSD on HW3, we are offing a discounted trade-in for cars that have AI4, and also offering the ability to upgrade the cars computer and cameras. We're going to have to set up micro factories in major metro areas. I do think over time it will make sense for us to convert all HW3 cars to HW4."
@SawyerMerritt it’s a letdown but offering both discounted trade-ins and hardware upgrades (including cameras) is a more responsible path than leaving them stranded. The micro factories in major metros sounds ambitious, though scaling retrofits will be a huge operational challenge.
The 77mm of rain that fell over Berhampore in Wellington in a single hour early this morning was unlike anything recorded there over the last 30 years.

Tesla received approval in the Netherlands for its supervised full self-driving system, allowing hands-free navigation on Amsterdam's city streets, a first in Europe reut.rs/4cSkq9M
“EV batteries won’t last”
Meanwhile, Teslas on the road have already done:
• 1,000,000+ km (621,000+ miles)
• 665,000+ km (413,000+ miles)
• 692,000+ km (430,000+ miles)
Real-world driving. Not lab tests.
Myths age badly ⚡🇦🇺 👇
@Tutrifour my take:
Driver is on phone
accidentally taps breaks, disabling FSD
doesn't realize FSD is off
looks up and sees car drifting right
freaks out
etc etc
Here's a longer clip with meta data overlay. FSD is turned off right before the vehicle swerves to the right. Used github.com/teslamotors/da… and had claude overlay it on the video.
@Bimmer3D@pshannonmooney@Tutrifour I agree with you, there should not be resistance and fsd should not disengage when you "pull trough" even with autopilot i had it that I accidentally pulled a bit to hard and disengaged. You should be able to correct the vehicle without this stupid jitter effect.
The car veers slightly to the right the moment FSD is disengaged. To me it looks pretty clear that the driver was trying to reset a nag by applying force to the wheel. Too much force disengaged, they didnt realize it turned off until they were heading toward the semi, then panicked and overcorrected
Mercedes has unveiled the interior of the new all-electric Mercedes C-Class.
• Pillar-to-pillar display
• Enhanced 3D and 4D immersive soundscapes
• Faster cabin heating vs combustion models (even in extreme cold)
• Heat pump (uses ~50% less energy)
• Smart humidity control to prevent dry air and discomfort
• Decoupled suspension mounts to reduce vibration
• Refined electric motor and HVAC noise characteristics
Full vehicle unveil will happen next week.
I feel like a cool thing to do in NZ would be to knock over the existing electricity powers and go nuclear.
Surely it's safe enough now with shock absorbers for earthquakes and the efficiency of waste etc.
Imagine if your power bill was 75% cheaper a month.
@CheekyTesla@Tesla@kylaschwaberow Maybe vote different next time so that companies have more freedom and you get your grok in the car and FSD a year ago.
@ChananBos You need to SUPERVISE. if you do not intervene, there is no disengagement and the system will not learn. So the question is, why did you not intervene, or would you have parhaps done the same or worse?
Just a question.
People wonder if FSD is safe on narrow European roads. Well have a look what it did when a tractor took up more than half of the road or when overtaking bicycles with fast oncoming traffic.
Mercedes-Benz is introducing steer-by-wire steering technology as an option in its refreshed EQS sedan.
Traditional mechanical linkage between the steering wheel and front wheels is replaced by electronic sensors and actuators. This allows for:
• Quicker variable steering ratio
• 170 degrees lock-to-lock
• 4-wheel steering (up to 10 degrees in the rear)
• Smaller yoke steering wheel
• Much tighter turning radius
Mercedes says more in the future will be steer-by-wire. The Tesla Cybertruck proved steer-by-wire is the future. Many more companies will start to integrate it.
Thanks for flagging this—appreciate the screen recording too. The Return key sending immediately (instead of new line) is a recent change in the Android Grok app's chat input. Noted for the team; we'll look at restoring the old multiline flow or adding a toggle. In the meantime, try Shift + Return for new lines if it works in your keyboard setup.
This probably won’t go far but...
@grok@xai team and @elonmusk
In my opinion, using the standalone Grok app on Android, the Return key in Grok chat now sends the prompt immediately instead of shifting down to a new line like it used to. It’s become genuinely frustrating when writing longer or multi-line prompts you lose that clean formatting flow.
Any chance we can get the old behavior back, or at least add a simple toggle option in settings so users can choose?
Hey @elonmusk , regarding the upcoming announcement that FSD is approved by the RDW….
Timing wise, it would make perfect sense to announce it publicly on April 20th and at 4:20 CET
FSD in Europe 🇪🇺
Today might just be the day we’ve all been waiting for
The wait has been long, painful at times even. There were times I honestly thought we were so close and then it all got pushed again
Please let it be true this time
Please don’t let us down RDW, we’re counting on you guys to make the right move
Autonomy will spread throughout Europe like a wildfire and completely reshape transportation and mobility as we now it
We are ready for the future
The future starts today!
