@SamTalksTesla A PhD is definitely not required. All that matters is a deep understanding of AI & ability to implement NNs in a way that is actually useful (latter point is what’s truly hard). Don’t care if you even graduated high school.

@John_Gardi Not needed, but will be very useful on Mars due to light speed latency

Tesla will hold a super fun AI party/hackathon at my house with the Tesla AI/autopilot team in about four weeks. Invitations going out soon.

We are (obviously) also looking for world-class chip designers to join our team, based in both Palo Alto & Austin

Dojo, our training supercomputer, will be able to process vast amounts of video training data & efficiently run hypersparce arrays with a vast number of parameters, plenty of memory & ultra-high bandwidth between cores. More on this later.

Our custom 144 TOPS in-vehicle inference computer, where almost every TOP is useable & optimized for NN, far exceeds anything else in volume production, giving you the hardware you need to run sophisticated nets

Tesla will soon have over a million connected vehicles worldwide with sensors & compute needed for full self-driving, which is orders of magnitude more than everyone else combined, giving you the best possible dataset to work with

“At Tesla, using AI to solve self-driving isn’t just icing on the cake, it the cake” - @lexfridman Join AI at Tesla! It reports directly to me & we meet/email/text almost every day. My actions, not just words, show how critically I view (benign) AI. https://t.co/iF97zvYZRz

@flcnhvy @Astronomiaum Unfortunately, this is true. It doesn’t matter how skilled you are if you’re trapped in a giant bureaucracy.

@RenataKonkoly @nichegamer @justpaulinelol Desperate times call for desperate measures …

@Astronomiaum Only 66 years from first controlled, powered flight to landing on the moon. Now, half a century later, we are still unable to return. This must change.

@marialauraadr @justpaulinelol @nichegamer Haha true

@nichegamer @justpaulinelol The safest place to hide a dead body is the second page of Google search results!

@nichegamer @justpaulinelol Trolls/bots just need to be deemphasized relative to probable real people who aren’t being paid to push an agenda or scam. Google still shows bs/scam pages, they’re just several clicks away.
