Argo AI / Ford

ich würde sagen, auch hier tauchen die ersten Vorboten auf, was mit dem "Tesla Full Self-Driving" in der jetzigen Form in Zukunft passieren wird:

Ford reins in hopes for self-driving cars as Argo AI shuts down
https://www.marketwatch.com/story/ford-takes-big-charge-as-a…
...
After betting big on self-driving cars — including $1 billion on soon-to-be shuttered startup Argo AI — Ford Motor Co. is softening its expectations on vehicles that don’t require drivers.

Ford executives on Wednesday said they were winding down their investment in Argo, which confirmed an earlier report of its plans to shut down, saying there were too many challenges to running a profitable network of fully self-driving vehicles anytime soon. That resulted in a $2.7 billion impairment on the startup, disclosed when Ford reported third-quarter results earlier in the day.

“We still believe in Level 4 autonomy, that it will have a big impact on our business of moving people,” Ford CEO Jim Farley said on the company’s earnings call, referring to cars that are autonomous enough not to need handling from a driver. “We’ve learned, though, in our partnership with Argo, and after our own internal investments, that we will have a very long road.”

“It’s estimated that more than $100 billion has been invested in the promise of Level 4 autonomy,” he continued. “And yet no one has defined a profitable business model at scale.”

Executives described hurdles with building out technology and auto fleets, as well as the vast infrastructure of non-technological services, to turn a profit on self-driving cars. And they said the talents of the staff they have today would be better spent on less-sophisticated driver-assistance systems.

Argo AI told MarketWatch that some of its 2,000 employees would be able to continue working on the vehicle technology with Ford and Volkswagen AG. Volkswagen was Argo’s other big backer.

"I did it to try to help humanity, whom I love", Elon Musk

wer sich das von Elon Musk mit Twitter durchlesen möchte, bitteschön.

Die langjährige Erfahrung bei Elon Musk zeigt aber, daß dem vermutlich nicht so sein wird -- außer man ist Kultmitglied:

Zur Erinnerung: Elon Musk kauft nicht Twitter, weil er das (immer noch) so doll findet, sondern weil seinen Anwälten vor Gericht in Delaware zuletzt einfach die Argumente ausgingen aus diesem Deal wieder aussteigen zu können (siehe oben).

Aber sowas schreibt ein Elon Musk nicht.

Exclusive: Tesla faces U.S. criminal probe over self-driving claims
https://www.reuters.com/legal/exclusive-tesla-faces-us-crimi…
...
Oct 25 - Tesla Inc (TSLA.O) is under criminal investigation in the United States over claims that the company's electric vehicles can drive themselves, three people familiar with the matter said.

The U.S. Department of Justice launched the previously undisclosed probe last year following more than a dozen crashes, some of them fatal, involving Tesla’s driver assistance system Autopilot, which was activated during the accidents, the people said.
...

The Justice Department investigation potentially represents a more serious level of scrutiny because of the possibility of criminal charges against the company or individual executives, the people familiar with the inquiry said.
...

The Justice Department’s Autopilot probe is far from recommending any action partly because it is competing with two other DOJ investigations involving Tesla, one of the sources said. Investigators still have much work to do and no decision on charges is imminent, this source said.
...

Barbara McQuade, a former U.S. attorney in Detroit who prosecuted automotive companies and employees in fraud cases and is not involved in the current probe, said investigators likely would need to uncover evidence such as emails or other internal communications (~) showing that Tesla and Musk made misleading statements about Autopilot’s capabilities on purpose.

Elon Musk pledges to close $44B Twitter deal by Friday: report
https://nypost.com/2022/10/25/elon-musk-may-close-44b-twitte…
...
Elon Musk has notified co-investors who committed to help fund his $44 billion acquisition of Twitter that he plans to close his buyout of the social media firm by Friday, according to a person familiar with the matter.

Equity investors, including Sequoia Capital, Binance, Qatar Investment Authority and others have received the requisite paperwork for the financing commitment from Musk’s lawyers, the source added.

The move is the clearest sign yet that Musk plans to comply with a Delaware court judge’s deadline to complete the transaction by Friday.

The banks that committed to fund Musk’s buyout of Twitter have finished putting together the final debt financing agreement and are in the process of signing the necessary documents, according to a Bloomberg News report.

Musk pledged to close the deal on a video conference call on Monday with bankers who are helping fund the deal, according to the report.

Tesla’s New Battery Isn’t What They Said It Would Be
Has Tesla pulled a fast one on us?
https://medium.com/predict/teslas-new-battery-isn-t-what-the…
...
These batteries do use the larger form factor and tabless design. After all, the form factor is where they get their name from (given they are 46mm wide and 80mm tall) and manufacturing the tabless design is easy. They also use the structural battery pack, but everything else is missing.

These teardowns showed that the anode material is graphite and the cathode material is NMC 811, meaning its internal chemistry is identical to its older 2170 cell. This means no superior charging speeds or higher energy density. It also means that this cell is still making use of environmentally damaging and humanitarian-troubling cobalt mining and remains vulnerable to nickel price rises. To make matters worse, the cell walls are three times thicker than a 2170 cell, further driving down energy density.
