    I just got access to Tesla’s Powerhub website for a client and was shocked by how poorly it formatted on mobile. Feelsbadman for the devs there, there must only be a handful?

    Right on schedule for Tesla because of their sloppy software practice to force the EU to set up a car software certification entity such that each release has to be approved.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Responding to reporting from The Information about Tesla machine learning researcher Ethan Knight going over to xAI, Musk’s latest artificial intelligence gambit, the multi-hyphenate billionaire admitted that the move came only after OpenAI tried to poach his own employee first.

    “Ethan was going to join OpenAI,” Musk said in a response to perennial reply guy Sawyer Merritt, “so it was either xAI or them.”

    As you may recall, Musk was one of the original cofounders of OpenAI and left the firm in 2018 amid reported differences in opinion regarding what direction it should be taking.

    “They have been aggressively recruiting Tesla engineers with massive compensation offers,” Musk continued, “and have unfortunately been successful in a few cases.”

    Strangely enough, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO also seemed to trash his employee after correcting Merritt’s insistence that Knight was the “computer vision chief” at the electric vehicle company.

    One odd takeaway: because both Tesla and xAI are in desperate need of AI luminaries, two of Musk’s companies are now in direct competition for the same hiring pool — and one of them is now officially poaching from the other.
