My productivity with agentic tools is roughly 33% higher than last year without them, measured by models, features, and milestones delivered. Concept to deliverable is roughly 3x faster, with better quality—not limited to coding, but also decision-making. What matters most is not whether the tools are agentic, but rigorously following the “algorithm”: - Make requirements less dumb - Delete the part or process step - Optimize - Accelerate - Automate Agentic is the last step. Deploying it too early only increases the velocity of slop. Routine housecleaning keeps agentic tools effective. Given the pace of model improvements, I cannot imagine what work will look like soon.

Yet another industry being disrupted
One million-mile trucker @adamlwingfield in new interview after going to the Tesla Semi launch event a couple weeks ago: “The trucking industry has adopted technology so much slower. As we toured the @Tesla Semi factory, I’m just like, wow, this doesn’t feel like trucking. It feels like transportation innovation. I’ve been in this industry a long time. I am an old-school industry veteran. You can’t tell me nothing about trucking that I don’t know. But walking away (from the event), I was like, "This industry is going to be changed."

Any technology advanced enough is indistinguishable from magic 🪄
“I'm in a Model Y L, and using [FSD Supervised]. This is the most unbelievable technology I have ever experienced in a car.”

Model S & X changed automotive history forever by proving that an EV could be the best car possible – of any kind. By inspiring other automakers to believe in EVs, they pushed the industry from 50k cars total in 2011 to 21 million sold per year. Many automotive firsts: Model S – first EV to achieve a 400-mile range, first production car to do 0-60 in <2 seconds & first production sedan to run a 9.23 second quarter mile. It was also the first vehicle with a roof so strong that it broke NHTSA's testing machine. Model X – quickest production SUV & the first to not roll over in regulatory tests. Model S & X also initiated real-world AI! We never stopped refining either vehicle. Both have 40% fewer parts today & share only 3% of parts with their original version. 60 years of evolution (by conventional car development standards) squeezed into 14 years! 750,000 Model S & X built. Your support – from our earliest days to now – made Tesla into what it is today. Thank you to each of our owners ❤️

Tesla is at a tipping point. FSD is going viral. BUT: Some Wall Street Analysts don’t think people are buying Teslas for FSD. Let’s give them the receipts! Know someone who bought a Tesla because of FSD? Did you buy FSD with a car attached? Add your story below. Prove them wrong.
Replying to @Amy787
Here is the receipts: many more stories of people that bought FSD - with a car attached. 1) Severe case of EDS, still bought FSD.

There are people who leave a mark on the world, and then there are people who change it entirely. Steve changed the world and so many lives in the process. He certainly changed my life forever. His spirit lives on in everything he created and everyone he inspired.

Tesla and some of the largest Australian power companies have united to fight a controversial plan to pass the cost of building public EV chargers onto all households through electricity bill increases, even if or those who do not own an EV. In a joint letter to local authorities, Tesla and more than a dozen industry players are warning that a recent decision allowing monopoly power-grid owners to expand into the EV-charging market risks saddling households with higher costs for uncertain benefits. smh.com.au/business/consumer…

FSD NEWS 🇪🇺 Following talks with German regulators, Tesla has offered to drop the "Full Self-Driving" (FSD) label in Europe and rename the software "Tesla Assisted Driving" (TAD) 🔥 The concession directly tackles a major regulatory sticking point: European officials argue that calling it "FSD" is misleading. Because the system functions strictly as a driver-assist tool rather than a fully autonomous platform, the driver remains 100% legally responsible behind the wheel and must stay alert at all times. German Transport Minister Steffen Bilger confirmed that Berlin and Tesla reached common ground back in September after hashing out key technical and liability details. Bilger announced he will now actively champion swift, EU-wide approval so drivers across the continent can finally get access. The negotiations also yielded an interesting compromise: the German Ministry and Tesla agreed that the system can slightly exceed posted speed limits, by up to 10%, to keep traffic flowing naturally. Ditching the controversial "FSD" name in favor of "Tesla Assisted Driving" shows Tesla is ready to play ball with European regulators to finally secure a green light.
FSD NEWS 🇩🇪 Germany is considering approving Tesla’s FSD Supervised on its own national territory if an EU-wide consensus cannot be reached 🔥 Transport Minister Steffen Bilger confirmed that while an EU-wide framework remains the ideal route, Germany will explore its own path if European negotiations stall, prioritizing innovation and potential safety gains despite open technical and liability questions. This unilateral move is legally possible under Article 39(5) of EU Regulation 2018/858, which allows individual member states to adopt provisional technology exemptions already granted by the Dutch vehicle licensing authority (RDW). Because formal EU committee decisions have been delayed until at least December, taking this step would align Germany with a growing list of nations that have already opted in: 🇳🇱 the Netherlands, 🇧🇪 Belgium, 🇩🇰 Denmark, 🇨🇿 the Czech Republic, 🇪🇪 Estonia, 🇱🇹 Lithuania, and 🇸🇮 Slovenia. Before giving any green light, the Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA) plans to conduct independent vehicle tests. German regulators want concrete answers regarding driver-attention safeguards, legal liability, and an identified software flaw that can cause vehicles to exceed posted speed limits. Going solo, however, comes with a ticking clock and significant legal exposure. If the European Commission ultimately vetoes the broader EU framework, any German national exemption would automatically expire after six months. While conventional rules allow previously built vehicles to stay registered, it remains entirely unresolved whether Tesla would be legally forced to remotely revoke over-the-air software features from existing owners. A national approval would also trap the feature inside German borders. Because neighboring transit hubs like France and Austria have not adopted the exemption, German drivers would face a fragmented patchwork where FSD operates domestically but must abruptly disengage the moment they cross an international boundary.
