@SpacemanZients @Tesla @elonmusk Sure! I would say exactly that if it wasnt literally called 'Full Self Driving' The name should be 'Pretty good Level 2 Drivers Assistance' or PGL2DA for short.

BREAKING NEWS: David Moss gets rear-ended by woman on highway, maintains FSD streak, and now approaches 13,000 miles of hands-free driving! With @DavidMoss’s permission I’m sharing the collision clip below. Crazy stuff. 😵 I’m glad you’re OK, David. To see David hit the 13,000 mile target, join him LIVE on his stream right NOW.

Apparently Two-thirds of motorists agree that reducing motorway speed limit to 60 miles per hour is a good thing in order to save fuel. I don’t know who these people they are supposed to be polling because if I were to be asked I would definitely not agree. Does anyone else think that reducing the speed will make no difference? I wouldn’t put it past them that the reason they want to do this is a way of catching out more people for speeding.

@ZacksJerryRig Not sure why you are so focused on shitting on the hard working engineers at Tesla. Stick to making YouTube videos

I am *shocked* this tweet isn't deleted. Hw2 failed. HW3 deserves refunds. HW4 already proven insufficient. Elon is the greatest snake oil salesman of all time. 👏
Elon Musk@elonmusk

@lexfridman @Tesla This is why it’s possible for Tesla to have a million robotaxis by end of 2020 if we upgrade existing HW2 fleet of ~500k & make at least ~500k FSD cars

@SamCKx NHS lists fallen because they cleaned the list by removing those who died whilst waiting. Child poverty number…. That is a projection and not a fact. Raised and created new taxes for working people. Removed benefits from the elderly. Actively seeking to destroy privacy.

If Keir Starmer does resign, history will look back on his reign and scratch its head as to why the hell he was so hated. On paper, he's probably delivered more to working British people in such a short time than any PM for decades. After inheriting an absolute mess: NHS waiting lists fallen. Worker's rights improved. Rail operators nationalised. Improved relations with EU and improved UK's global reputation. Removed non-dom tax status. Halved childcare costs. Boosted state pensions. Lowest homicide rate in 50 years. Lifted 550k children out of poverty. Immigration vastly reduced. We are in the age of billionaire funded misinformation, whose sole purpose is to topple democratically elected leaders, and insert leadership that favours the wealthy elites over the working people. Looks like the game plan is working...

@chinds185 I know, it's just a bit frustrating waiting and not knowing when it's supposed to open up. Currently modifying the UI components of my app to match the new liquid glass and it's looking good 😁

@cpries94 @oskargroth > I trust Apple a lot more to handle "actual" tech than the EU. You do you. EU is stopping apple from gatekeeping. You can keep using Siri AI if you want to but other AIs should be able to have the same access that Siri has and other people want that choice

There you have it. Instead of Apple trying to find a suitable, compliant solution to launch Siri AI in the EU without gatekeeping competitors, Apple spent 18 months ignoring the regulations, then asked the EU Commission to be exempted from the DMA obligations.

🚨 do you understand what happened to Apple.. At WWDC, Apple confirmed that Siri's cloud layer now runs on a custom Google Gemini model with 1.2 trillion parameters, licensed for roughly $1 billion a year. Strategically, this is a reversal. The company that built its brand on privacy and vertical integration has handed the core of its AI stack to a direct competitor. The same capabilities Apple announced at WWDC 2024 and never shipped — personal context, on-screen awareness, cross-app actions — now depend on Google Cloud. → $250M settlement in May for marketing Siri features that didn't exist → debuted at WWDC 2024, delayed March 2025, ads pulled → Tim Cook's final keynote before stepping down September 1 → Siri's cloud inference now runs on Google's infrastructure Apple didn't close the AI gap. It leased it. Pragmatic move or structural capitulation in the AI race?
Polymarket@Polymarket

NEW: Apple will reportedly unveil its revamped AI-powered Siri at WWDC tomorrow.

@Keir_Starmer I agree with you, but we must also ensure our children don’t fall behind in technology. Otherwise, when they take our place, they will lose wars. We cannot afford a weak, tech-illiterate generation in the coming decades.

This government will not stand by while children are put at risk online. Today I am calling on the tech companies to introduce device-level controls to prevent children from taking, sharing or viewing nude images. And if they don’t act, we will.

@a_cucos Lovely design but most will use their thumb to press this button and won’t notice the full text change underneath. But seeing a flicker may prompt them to stop holding to see what has changed.

@tesla_jokes Some of these features were previously available for muncher cheaper than £6000 as part of EAP. This is a complete ripoff right now considering FSD in the UK offers nothing more than EAP did which was half the price. Until FSD is available in the UK this is worthless.

@ZacksJerryRig @xdNiBoR @Tesla Where is your source? Robottaxi tracker seems to see them very frequently and that's only the rides that Tesla enthusiasts log to it. Estimates say only about 5% to 10% of rides are logged to the tracker.

@Rainex116 @ZacksJerryRig @Tesla Because Mr Musk lives rent free in his head. Used to have so much respect for this man and then he turned political and his videos have just gone to shit IMO.

This baloney is so annoying. I didn't pay for 'lite' I paid for FULL SELF DRIVING. @Tesla is kicking the can down the road long enough for the cars to be obsolete, wrecked or out of warranty. Such a giant middle finger to us early adopters. You HW4 people are next btw. Watch how they treat HW3. @elonmusk is a fraud.
Tesla@Tesla

Following future rollout of FSD V14 Lite for HW3 vehicles in the US, we plan on expanding V14 Lite to additional international markets. This update ensures that HW3 vehicle owners will continue to benefit from ongoing software updates. Since international rollout is subject to several factors (completion of technical verification, regional adaptation & relevant regulatory approvals), we can't provide definitive dates at the moment, but will provide updates on a rolling basis

@ZacksJerryRig @krisco655 This is an absolute wild take. If phones now can run the current software then why are they producing new hardware and advancing chip design.

@krisco655 If HW3 was sufficient for FSD they wouldn't have made HW4. If HW4 was sufficient for FSD they wouldn't be releasing HW5. Software can't replace the lack of hardware.

@callebtc For 99%, it’s 15%, not 30%. There is a button where you can ask/claim this exemption. Offering sign-in with Apple makes a whole lot of sense for iOS users, especially as it enables anonymous sign-in, which is valued by lots of people.

The Apple App Store rules are borderline illegal. This isn’t about security. It's not about malware. It's not about user experience. It’s about control. - Use Google login? You must add Apple login - Sell digital products? You must use Apple payments - Apple takes 30% of your revenue (this is frankly insane) - You can’t tell users about cheaper prices outside the app - You can’t use a different payment system like Bitcoin - Apple can reject your app with vague reasons (or bend over due to political pressure) - You can’t install apps outside their store (most regions) They own the platform. They compete with you on it. And you still have to pay them. Is this a monopoly or a mafia gang?
