  2. If you accept his prediction of 2029 for Turing then given that FSD is effectively a subset of that, FSD should succeed before then?

  6. It’s not the gross unit cost of the device that matters, it’s the cost of accessing it per unit of time (or maybe per byte).

  7. It just means they have bugs to be ironed out, the worry is they might not bother.

  9. Yes, his comments on that haven’t aged particularly well (other than the compute now available).

  21. If you can’t tell the difference then nobody will care.

  22. Autism seems to be largely the lack of filters.

  23. It’s hilarious how the comments written ALL IN CAPS are usually the most deranged.

  24. It’s a pointless question. Having a guaranteed demonstrable ‘after life’ is a separate issue.
