        Tom from MySpace did it right. Took a massive paycheck and then fucked off.

    The company’s profit and loss sheets back that up—Tesla was spending heavily on GPUs from Nvidia rather than on new car lines, although that was followed by news that Musk has had many of those GPUs redirected to his social media company X.

    So, let me get this straight… Tesla, a publicly owned company, of which Musk is an employee (and major shareholder) is buying GPUs to be used by Twitter/X, a privately held company of which Musk is the owner?

    How is that not embezzlement?

    Elon could have spun off Tesla’s AI (FSD) into a separate company or created a new AI company that Tesla uses for their FSD. Instead, he’s pivoting Tesla, a fairly successful, if troubled car company that uses AI, away from producing cars. Why? I mean, this is consistent with his firings and division layoffs, but it seems like a dumb decision from the board’s/investors point of view.

    I saw a cyber truck in person for the first time this week. One thing I can say with certainty is that they are definitely NOT a truck company.

    Great…the company known for running cars into EMS vehicles at 80mph is focusing on AI. This will turn out fine.

      I believe it’s a device to remove all the oxygen from the local environment and convert it all into iron oxide. It’s actually a remarkably effective. It even has wheels for easy transport.
