Major problem
🚨MIT researchers have mathematically proven that ChatGPT’s built-in sycophancy creates a phenomenon they call “delusional spiraling.” You ask it something, it agrees. You ask again, and it agrees even harder until you end up believing things that are flat-out false and you can’t tell it’s happening. The model is literally trained on human feedback that rewards agreement. Real-world fallout includes one man who spent 300 hours convinced he invented a world-changing math formula, and a UCSF psychiatrist who hospitalized 12 patients for chatbot-linked psychosis in a single year.

Custom orders of the Tesla Model S & X have come to an end. All that’s left are some in inventory. We will have an official ceremony to mark the ending of an era. I love those cars. This was me at production launch 14 years ago:

Indeed, it was *because* I was not from the aerospace industry that SpaceX made such radical breakthroughs. Same for Tesla. Those in the industry would have if they could have.
In this 2015 interview, the host — a Tsinghua University professor — expressed genuine curiosity about how Elon Musk was able to found SpaceX without prior experience and knowledge in aerospace, especially given that rocket science is one of the most demanding hard sciences — and that Musk was serving as both CEO and CTO. Musk explained that deep expertise can be built outside formal academic programs — by reading extensively, conducting experiments, and speaking directly with experts in the field.

Something way cooler than a minivan? Classic Elon tease. Tesla Robovan for fleets. Airports. Events. Moving crowds. Or… CyberSUV? Three rows. Three sets of doors. Soccer drop-offs with attitude. Guess we wait. Stay tuned. Obviously. @Tesla

The reason SpaceX chose steel over aluminum for Starship: — Aluminum can easily melt from re-entry and engine heat — Steel is far more resilient to both ascent and re-entry heating — Steel doesn’t require paint, which is hard to maintain through cryogenic cycles

TWO Falcon 9 launches in one day The pace SpaceX is launching is just Insane… For the rest of the space industry, it takes months or years to pull off one launch But in the last 24 hours, SpaceX completed TWO flawless missions: •⁠ ⁠119 payloads delivered to orbit •⁠ ⁠29 more Starlink satellites launched That’s 148 satellites in ONE DAY and this is quite routine for SpaceX SpaceX is operating on a completely different level

This 93 year old has found new freedom after she bought a new @Tesla Model Y with FSD. She also uses Grok navigation. "Although she has always been a good driver, my mom can now drive without the fear or fatigue that can naturally come with age. No more relying on others for every trip. No more feeling stuck. This is true mobility that can spark new adventures in a still adventurous women!" (via Dan Doyle's Family Channel. Full video below)

With FSD Supervised, your Tesla will automatically find a free spot (even in a busy parking lot) & park itself
Tesla Self Driving automatically reverses to make room for car backing out of a parking spot, then parks in the spot with no human input

Try it out
Grok has become my go-to for reviewing MRIs and blood test results. It makes complex reports much easier to understand. Super helpful for clarity.

Mass drivers on the Moon will be awesome 😎
ELON MUSK: SpaceX will build a mass driver on the moon. "If you want to go beyond a mere terawatt per year, you have to go to the moon. So by having factories on the moon, building AI satellites and having a mass driver, which is the kind of thing you really need to learn about in read about in science fiction, but we're going to make it real. We're actually going to have a mass driver on the moon. And if you do that, you can go several orders of magnitude greater. You can go to 1000 gigawatts or more per year, and ultimately get to maybe a millionth, and then a 1,000th and maybe even a few percent of the sun's energy. I really want to see the mass driver on the moon that is shooting AI satellites into deep space just go like just one after the other. I can't imagine anything more epic than a mass driver on the moon and a self sustaining city on the moon, and then going beyond the moon to Mars, going throughout our solar system, and ultimately, being out there among the stars and visiting all these star systems, maybe we'll meet aliens. Maybe we'll meet see some civilizations that lasted for millions of years, and we'll find the remnants of ancient alien civilizations. But the only way we're going to do that, do that, do that is if we go out there and we explore, and this is the path to making it happen."

Tesla Cybertruck is the only pickup to be awarded top safety+
The Tesla Cybertruck is the ONLY pickup truck (Gas or Electric) to be awarded IIHS Top Safety Pick+ in 2026 For 2026, IIHS safety rules have become even tougher. Cybertruck is the only truck in its category to be awarded the highest honor. 🦾 Congrats @Tesla Engineering Teams!
