@teslaeurope This requires HW4? What about us HW3 owners who paid for FSD upfront many years ago?

Together with RDW, we have officially completed the final vehicle testing phase for Full Self-Driving (Supervised) and have submitted all documentation required for the UN R-171 approval + Article 39 exemptions. The RDW team is now reviewing the documentation and test results package internally. They have communicated the expected approval for Netherlands date of 4/10, shifting from 3/20 previously and we look forward to successful completion of this cooperation.  Following the Netherlands’ approval, European countries will be able to recognize this approval nationally. We are anticipating a possible EU-wide approval during the summer. Over the past 18 months, this approval has involved a series of intense documentation, development, testing, research & audits. Including but certainly not limited to: – 1,600,000+ km of FSD (Supervised) testing on EU roads – 13,000+ customer sales ride-alongs – 4,500+ track test scenario executions – Thousands of pages of written documentation for 400+ compliance requirements – Dozens of research studies into safety performance/results We're extremely proud of the work conducted with the RDW team up until this point. We very much look forward to the approval in April, and sharing FSD (Supervised) with our patient EU customers!

@AlexFinn @yashhsm What do think of NemoClaw?

@yashhsm openclaw is a dead product? on what planet? I talk to hundreds of people daily that are using the hell out of it I just went to GTC and every person here is using OpenClaw and it's all Nvidia can talk about

@agingroy Any data to support a recurring vaccination every x years?

A single shot that slows your biological clock. Five aging markers improved. Benefits lasting 4+ years. New study (n=3,884, US Health and Retirement Study) Shingles vaccination was associated with: -> Lower inflammation (p=0.003) -> Slower epigenetic aging (p=0.0001) -> Slower transcriptomic aging (p<0.0001) -> Lower composite biological aging score (p=0.0002) The mechanism: chickenpox virus hides in your nerve cells for life. As you age, it reactivates silently, fueling chronic inflammation even without causing shingles. Suppressing that reactivation removes a hidden accelerant of biological aging. The shingles vaccine is recommended for adults 50+ and covered at no cost by most insurance plans. Vaccines aren’t just for preventing infection anymore. They’re longevity tools.

@adcock_brett Impressive Hardware. Still true that progress in robotics is mainly limited by software?

@alexwg Really cool. I will be waiting for the non-invasive BCI though.

@DavidtherealDJ That's my expectation, yes.

@alexwg Would the human whole-brain emulation also inform how a BCI connection can be achieved? Is it more likely that a second, artificial brain can be successfully connected when the architecture is the same?

@DavidtherealDJ Thanks! Human whole-brain emulation, to start.

@AlexFinn I would love to learn if OpenClaw can automate text research/analysis of very large file sets.

OpenClaw is the greatest AI tool ever made, but I still hear SO many people say 'there are no good use cases' That ends now In this video I go over 5 use cases that will be helpful to EVERYONE No matter who you are, if you watch this video, your life will be 5x more efficient

@adcock_brett Still no one?

UPDATE: zero people have solved this

@PeterDiamandis Not at all, because Plus users will not see any ads!

Ads are coming to ChatGPT... Will this impact your usage?

@carolemadge Thanks! Sounds interesting. I will make one and see how delicious it…

In keeping with tradition, I baked Hadrian a birthday cake. 🎂 This year, I chose Cato’s recipe for savillum (a kind of cheesecake), one of my favourite sweet cakes from antiquity. #Hadrian1950 Savillum recipe in Latin (from LacusCurtius): Cato’s De Agricultura 84: Savillum hoc modo facito. Farinae selibram, casei P. II S una conmisceto quasi libum, mellis P. et ovum unum. Catinum fictile oleo unguito. Ubi omnia bene conmiscueris, in catinum indito, catinum testo operito. Videto ut bene percocas medium, ubi altissimum est. Ubi coctum erit, catinum eximito, melle unguito, papaver infriato, sub testum subde paulisper, postea eximito. Ita pone cum catillo et lingula. Translation: Take ½ pound of flour and 2½ pounds of cheese, and mix together as for the libum; add ¼ pound of honey and 1 egg. Grease an earthenware dish with oil. When you have mixed it thoroughly, pour it into a dish and cover it with a crock. See that you bake the centre thoroughly, for it is deepest there. When it is done, remove the dish, cover it with honey, sprinkle it with poppy seed, place it back under the crock for a while, and then remove it from the fire. Serve in the dish with a spoon. Ingredients: 200g plain flour 250g ricotta cheese honey 1 egg poppy seeds 1 tsp olive oil bay leaves Add the cheese to the flour and combine the two. Beat the egg and add it to the mixture with a tablespoon of honey. Knead into a dough, adding a little more flour if necessary. Use olive oil to grease a round cake pan. Add the bay leaves over the oil. Press the dough into the bottom of the pan and cover it. Bake in the oven at 180°C for 45 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, spread two tablespoons of honey over the top of the bread and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Replace it in the oven for a further 10-15 minutes. Serve warm or cold.

@jasoncrawford Age of Progress

Need your ideas: what should I title my book on the philosophy of progress? The Techno-Humanist Manifesto is the title of the essay series, but we can retitle it for book form. What would convey the core idea and be compelling/intriguing?

@iruletheworldmo I am have been recently doing side-by-side comparisons of 5.2 Pro and 5.2 Thinking. In my opinion 5.2 Thinking delivers 80-90% of what 5.2 Pro can.

there’s a lot of hype around right now so just to make something very clear. if you need world class expertise at a wide range of things. finance, health, legal, learning, etc etc. nothing is comparable to GPT 5.2 Pro it’s not even close.

@lexfridman How can privacy be protected? Local LLMs?

Doing a long, super-technical podcast on the state-of-the-art in AI. Let me know if you have question, topic suggestions. Everything from details of LLM training pipeline & architectures, to coding, robotics, scaling, compute, business, geopolitics, etc. Besides topics & questions... add papers, blogs, posts, rants, perspectives that you'd like to see covered.

@alexwg I love to come here to read the most positive things of the day. Thanks!

@alexwg Super interesting update and beautifully written. Thanks!

@adcock_brett Out of the box usefulness for a wide range of tasks is definitely the goal to shoot for and will feel magical to people. People are general purpose but still greatly benefit from an on the job training to really know their way around things.

@DavidtherealDJ I want to ship a robot that is truly general purpose or very close

It’s true - everyone is talking about manufacturing, but that’s not sizing the timeline The ~100× harder problem is solving general robotics - building a robot that’s truly autonomous and general-purpose It’s hard for the public to see real progress when most humanoids today are actually teleoperated behind the scenes without disclosure - basically a “self-driving” car secretly steered by a remote driver. Consumers can’t tell the difference between full autonomy and a human puppet. I really hope this stops as it’s peak deception and is harming the entire industry Our focus is on full autonomy; it’s incredibly difficult but a tractable problem. It’s the only path to a sci-fi future Solve general robotics, and you win

@adcock_brett Will Figure 03 be receptive for training by the end user? Can I easily train it in new tasks? This would greatly minimize the time for your team to cover by training all the edge cases out there.

@DavidtherealDJ The answer is as soon as we can do e2e work that we're proud of...we will then ship I left my meeting with Jensen in D.C. early and on a jet back to HQ now to make my EOD engineering standup. We are max speed on this exact problem - let us cook

@adcock_brett Awesome! Super appreciated.
