I’m excited to announce a partnership with @Uber. As part of this, Uber plans to invest up to $1.25 billion in Rivian and deploy up to 50,000 R2 robotaxis. This partnership accelerates our path to Level 4 autonomy and supports our goal of building one of the safest autonomous platforms in the world—across both shared and personally owned vehicles. The combination of Rivian’s rapidly growing data flywheel, our in-house RAP1 inference platform (800 TOPS), and our multi-modal perception stack provides a powerful foundation to scale autonomy quickly and responsibly over the next couple of years.

NEWS: Jeff Bezos' rocket company Blue Origin has filed an official request with the FCC to launch and operate a constellation of 51,600 AI satellites (orbital datacenters), just two weeks after Amazon filed a formal petition calling on the FCC to deny @SpaceX’s 1 million-satellite proposal for orbiting datacenters, going as far to claim the project would take “centuries” to deploy. Blue Origin's project, called “Project Sunrise,” would include up to 51,600 satellites in low Earth orbit, designed to run AI and cloud computing workloads using constant solar power. The system would primarily use laser (optical) links between satellites. Blue Origin says "space-based data centers could relieve pressure on Earth’s power grids and water usage."

Long TSA lines at Newark Airport this morning



My wife returns the Kia EV9 today. She is sad because she loved the color and practicality it had. She did really like “Bluey” lol. Overall we had no problems with it. No battery issues as some had. We were thankful. She’s not going to miss how it handled in the snow or bad weather. It had all season tires but seemed to slide around and she didn’t like that. The range was ok. We didn’t really travel with it. She mainly used it around town, but I think the range was maybe around 250 miles, she only supercharged it a few times at Electrify America Tesla only recently opened up charging to Kia, but we never needed it. Most times we would just take my Model S when traveling, especially because of the FSD. She wanted to possibly buy out the lease but Kia wanted way too much money for this thing. I think it was around $54,000, 2 years old with 23,000 miles. No thanks, we see used ones with less miles in the $30,000 price range. Now we play the waiting game, what she really wants is the Tesla Model YL She is going to drive my Model S for now. She’s OK with driving it, but she doesn’t like how low it sits and really hopes the YL comes soon. Please @tesla bring the Model YL to the US soon before she decides to go buy a legacy SUV that is inferior and cannot drive itself and the software is trash but just adds more buttons to try and make up for it. 🙏🏼
