@decampkev @nishkidoonoo @elonmusk No. Valuing the company. Longs on this name almost universally have not done the actual work on it. If you don't understand ML you can't own this name. If you don't have a thesis around Wayve you shouldn't own this name.

@decampkev @nishkidoonoo @elonmusk "variants". If they aren't the same model you aren't validating. Do you have FSD? Go test between even small releases. They are post training & simulating the geofence targets. These are no longer the same models.

@Xav_Swift @nishkidoonoo @elonmusk Ashok Elluswamy on last call: “I’d like to note that the version of Robotaxi that’s running in Austin, Dallas, Houston, et cetera, those are essentially 14.3 variants”

They are and just had a significant update that hasn’t even rolled out to the whole fleet. @elonmusk partly agrees with you, ““I think it’s not going to make sense for us to deploy unsupervised FSD or Robotaxi at large scale when we know that there are major architectural improvements to the software that can improve safety.” Tesla scale is orders of magnitude higher than Waymo scale - of course it doesn’t make sense yet…

@decampkev @nishkidoonoo Tesla hasn't scaled because they aren't safe enough yet. You can run unsupervised at low miles and be statistically very unlikely to cause severe issues. That's what they're doing. The real question you should answer is why aren't they validating on the consumer fleet

Tesla recently did an architectural rewrite of FSD using MLIR (Multi-Level Intermediate Representation) for multiple reasons including faster reaction time, faster model iteration speed, and most importantly - safety. Tesla can produce the entire Waymo fleet in an afternoon. Why truly scale when significant safety improvements are in the pipeline? More details: grok.com/share/bGVnYWN5…

Nope. They did not include the Bay Area ride-hailing service. Why? Read the 2025 Q3 call transcript. Ashok mentioned that the Bay Area had already logged over 1M miles at that time. Later, in the Q4 deck, Tesla reported only 650K cumulative paid Robotaxi miles. Mathematically, there’s no way the Bay Area was included in “paid Robotaxi miles.”

Tesla Robotaxi was at least ~1.81x safer than humans in April 2026. With the latest NHTSA crash report, and thanks to Robotaxi Tracker, I can finally report that Tesla Robotaxi in Austin surpassed average human safety in April 2026 (last month). 1. According to NHTSA, I estimate the human crash rate, including both reported and non-reported crashes, is ~249K miles per accident. 2. I collected all Tesla-reported mileage, as well as 7-day active fleet size from Robotaxi Tracker, and found the mileage is pretty predictable. This allows me to accurately estimate monthly Robotaxi mileage in Austin with <5% error. 3. Using the latest NHTSA crash report, I calculated the 3-month rolling crash rate, since Tesla sometimes has 0 monthly crashes. It clearly shows that in April, the 3-month rolling crash rate surpassed humans for the first time.

@raines1220 I don’t think there’s any evidence that “paid Robotaxi miles” is solely Austin (SF included also). Therefore, Austin miles are much lower than you assume and crash rate is higher. I hope I’m wrong, but where is the evidence?

These people aren’t looking out for Tesla shareholders’ best interests. They manage funds and actively trade the stock. If SpaceX and Tesla announce a merger, whatever the Tesla Board and Elon offer IS the BEST OFFER for shareholders. You either vote YES, or you will see the biggest rug pull in history as Elon walks away from a company that doesn’t support his vision. Look at OpenAI example, and the past 5 years without a 2025 comp plan in place. Tesla was not founded with dual-class shares, so a merger is the only way for Elon to secure permanent control of his companies. If you’re a long-term shareholder, you’ve stuck it out through the Twitter drama, DOGE drama, Trump feud drama, the 2018 comp plan re-vote, the Texas relocation, and the 2025 comp plan. Voting NO on the merger is the same as voting NO on all of the above. Wake up, people. Now is not the time to get distracted by this stupid fight among the community. If you really back Elon, stand with him 100%. Or just sell your shares. There is no compromise in Elon or his companies. This stock is not for you—there are plenty of other stocks without this level of drama. Haven’t we all learn? @CernBasher @TeslaBoomerMama @TeslaLarry

@TeslaBoomerMama She said they likely will be “taking it down” when it goes public - so the reason for $TSLA shareholders is to buy @SpaceX at greater than 100X sales from @ARKInvest?

Agree 100% But, at this multiple and a ~$1.5 trillion MC a good amount of AI/robotics is already priced in. We can debate how much of it, but I don’t think we can deny it’s significant. @bradsferguson @LimitingThe

Well articulated. I'm a fan of SpaceX and Tesla and a future merger. But I am also heavily invested in Tesla and want to see the decade of investment adequately represented in the deal. There are two companies that are valued very differently.

@DKThomp You may like it, but it’s dumb: Vision only AVs - unknown/impossible Steel reusable rockets - unknown/impossible Wiring 100K GPUs coherently - unknown/impossible Could go on, but xAI is behind for now because it was formed years after the others.

I don’t think I’ve seen this take before but I like it. Musk has been world-leading at compressing money, resources, and time to make “known/hard” things at scale—make an electric car, make batteries, make a cheaper bigger rocket, all of which already existed but worse, at less scale, or more expensively —but he’s less than world-leading at cracking open breakthroughs in more unknown spaces. So it would make sense that XAI is lagging the frontier labs on new AI agents, but also that he’d have built a neocloud to power those models once they run short of compute
rohit@krishnanrohit

Also, fwiw, I pointed this out 4 years ago. That Elon's unique talent is suited better to some things than others. Getting a neocloud up and running is a known but hard thing to do, getting a model to be as good as the frontier labs is an unknown and hard thing to do. strangeloopcanon.com/p/on-thinkers-…

This is the greatest interview in the history of television. This man, Ryan Cohen, is worth an estimated $5.1 billion dollars. He’s the founder of Chewy, the e-commerce pet food brand, and current CEO of GameStop. You can just do things, guys!

@JesseTinsley Massive dilution (especially when the CEO is trying to hide it from his ape shareholders) is massively bullish 🚀 Few understand this 🤡🤡🤡

People fundamentally dont understand the financial system. You can leverage the combined equity value of the businesses to offer say ~ $55B with ~$10B of your own combined cash and $20B debt and $25b equity as the combined entity is worth ~$65b. One of the greatest interviews of all time. Ryan is just not having any of it haha
