@vicentes @EvaFoxU @PPathole @mirojurcevic @TashaARK @Space_Station There will always be upgrades

@EvaFoxU @PPathole @mirojurcevic @TashaARK @Space_Station It will be better than human vision by quite a margin

@enn_nafnlaus @mirojurcevic @TashaARK @Space_Station Reality looks like a strange ghost-world at radar wavelengths. Almost everything except metal is translucent.

@PPathole @mirojurcevic @TashaARK @Space_Station Exactly

@mirojurcevic @TashaARK This is a misperception. SpaceX developed & continues to use lidar for Dragon docking with @Space_Station. Just pointless imo for self-driving. If you’re going to do active photon generation, use an occlusion penetrating wavelength, like precision radar at ~4mm.

@PhilippeCROIZON @SpaceX One day we will fly you on Starship

@Peter_J_Beck Well done!

@hisdirtremoves @SpaceX I can’t comment on turbopump internal details, but you’re roughly in the ballpark. Wow, rocket turbopumps, especially if oxygen-rich, are insanely hard! Arguably, the hardest mechanical/fluids/combustion problem known to exist.

@TashaARK To be clear, this was just an XPeng problem. Other companies in China have not done this.

@IsaacLatterell @TashaARK @karpathy Andrej is awesome, but it should be said that we have a very talented Autopilot/AI team at Tesla. Too much credit comes to me & Andrej.

@spacetouristuk @TashaARK Yeah. They stole Apple’s code too. https://t.co/gy4DT7Pq9N

@TashaARK They have an old version of our software & don’t have our NN inference computer

@levie Wild times!

@RocketLab Congrats!
