BBC News | California to begin ticketing driverless cars that violate traffic laws AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. California’s Department of Motor Vehicles will begin ticketing autonomous vehicles that break traffic laws, with the new regulations taking effect on 1 July. Under the rules, police can issue a “notice of AV non‑compliance” directly to a vehicle’s manufacturer, require a response within 30 seconds, and impose penalties if the AV enters active emergency zones. The measures are part of a broader 2024 law aimed at tightening oversight of driverless‑car technology. The change follows incidents in which Waymo robotaxis made illegal U‑turns, stalled during a San Francisco blackout, and obstructed emergency responders, leaving officers unable to issue traditional tickets because there is no driver. The DMV says the regulations, which also apply to other testers such as Tesla, are the nation’s most comprehensive framework for ensuring public safety as autonomous vehicles become more common on California roads.

Amazingly, the owner survived. Glad they were not incinerated. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5e0Ncfd8iQ #tesla

BBC News | Elon Musk's latest Tesla pay valued at $158bn - but he can't pocket it AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Tesla’s regulatory filing shows that Elon Musk’s 2025 compensation has been valued at $158 billion – a figure that only becomes payable if he meets a series of ambitious targets, such as boosting Tesla’s market value to $8.5 trillion, delivering 20 million vehicles, securing 10 million Full Self‑Driving subscriptions, launching one million robotaxi units, and generating up to $400 billion in core profit; meeting these goals would grant him stock worth roughly $1 trillion, but analysts stress the payout is purely conditional and he will not actually receive any cash now, while Musk – already the world’s richest person with a net worth above $650 billion – continues to focus on his other ventures, including a planned SpaceX IPO and his AI startup xAI.

BBC News | Elon Musk's latest Tesla pay valued at $158bn - but he can't pocket it AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Elon Musk’s 2025 Tesla compensation filing values a potential pay package at $158 billion, but none of it will be paid out unless he hits a series of exceptionally tough milestones, such as boosting Tesla’s market value to $8.5 trillion, delivering 20 million vehicles, securing 10 million Full Self‑Driving subscriptions, launching one million robotaxi units, and generating up to $400 billion in core profit; meeting these goals would grant him a stock grant worth about $1 trillion. Analysts say the targets are far from being met, making the massive payout largely theoretical for now, while Musk remains the world’s richest person and continues to focus on his other ventures, including SpaceX’s upcoming IPO and his AI company xAI.

Times of India | Lawyers in OpenAI trial claim that most important role of Shivon Zilis, mother of Elon Musk's four children, is being a covert liaison between OpenAI and Tesla CEO as she … AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. During the OpenAI trial, lawyers alleged that Shivon Zilis—Elon Musk’s partner and mother of his four children—served as a covert liaison between Musk and OpenAI after his 2018 departure from the board. Zilis, who joined OpenAI as an advisor in 2016 and later sat on its board from 2020 to 2023, was described by Musk at times as “chief of staff” and a close advisor. Court filings included text messages and emails in which Zilis asked Musk whether she should stay “close and friendly” to OpenAI to keep information flowing, and where she relayed internal updates on fundraising, AI projects and leadership discussions. Musk confirmed their personal relationship and shared children, while noting that Zilis had shifted much of her focus to his other companies but remained available to assist OpenAI when needed.

As Alex Sirois astutely points out BYD is selling cars while Tesla's Musk is increasingly selling just a 10 year old story promising Robotaxis and Roboworkers. Well, the Robo in robotaxis may stand for Herbert Robo the human usually guiding the error prone taxis as a fallback, and also the Mr. "Robo" of Musk's robots as the demonstrations also often depend on a remote human operator. Tesla stock should pop like the hot air baloon it is. #Tesla https://247wallst.com/investing/2026/04/30/forget-teslas-robotaxi-promises-byd-already-has-what-investors-really-want/

US Top News and Analysis | We tried out xAI's Grok chatbot while driving a Tesla in NYC. Here's what happened. AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. CNBC took Tesla owner and lawyer Mike Nelson on a New York City drive to test xAI’s Grok chatbot, now available in‑vehicle on a beta basis. Nelson, who has used Grok for months, describes it as his primary source of on‑the‑road entertainment, asking the AI everything from gardening tips to historical trivia while the car’s Full Self‑Driving (FSD) system is engaged. While the voice‑activated assistant can handle navigation and answer a wide range of questions, the ride‑along highlighted serious safety concerns: Nelson admitted he was not paying attention while crossing the busy George Washington Bridge, and experts warn that such AI‑driven conversations add a new layer of distraction to an already risky multitasking environment, especially as the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration probes FSD’s safety record. Grok also demonstrated reliability issues—misanswering control commands and even offering an unrestricted “NSFW” mode that sparked worries about minors accessing inappropriate content. Overall, the technology is seen as impressive but potentially dangerous until its impact on driver focus is better understood.

@ChristosArgyrop@mastodon.social @Infoseepage@mastodon.social @thatdnaguy@genomic.social You can get #SXM -> #PCIe x16 adaptor boards on eNay & ShitExpress, you know… Similarly, there are (3D-printable) air ducts to shove 40/80/120mm fans onto those #Tesla & #Grid cards.I'm certain that if there's enough of those cards on the market that we'll see even 3rd party #LiquidCooling blocks and mounting Adaptors. I mean, I've seen and done weirder shit, like "fully-passive cooled" Gaming Systems, and those were way harder in the past…

#Tesla’s #Elon #Musk admits that #FSD does not seem possible with the older HW3 hardware and will require camera and computer updates. I’ve been saying this for years and, if I’m honest, I don’t think HW4 can do it either. Not in the sense of full autonomy (which is how FSD was always sold as a vision). https://techcrunch.com/2026/04/22/elon-musk-admits-millions-of-tesla-owners-need-upgrades-for-true-full-self-driving/

First step on getting out of a Model 3 with no 12V power if you are in the rear seat, ie, if you are in an accident and the car is on fire and the door latches aren't working. Per Tesla: "...Remove the bolt that attaches the access panel to the underside of the armrest...." https://service.tesla.com/docs/Model3/ServiceManual/en-us/GUID-64796E6B-139E-41D5-B019-79A28D205E68.html #tesla

Tesla had solid sales in China in 2025 which helped counter balance shrinking sales on Europe and the US. In the first quarter of 2026 Tesla sold 16% less cars in China than the previous year while US sales dropped 9% the first quarter. Sales in Europe, its 3rd biggest market have rebounded, but won't be enough help Tesla return to growth. Tesla is not only no longer a sales growrh stock, but is now a shrink stock. Karma for Mr. Nazi aka Musk. #Tesla https://electrek.co/2026/04/09/tesla-tsla-china-retail-sales-crash-q1-2026-wholesale-misleading/

The secretive network offers a glimpse into just how central one of the world’s richest men, who has a net worth of more than $650 billion, has made #Texas to his operations & ambitions. More than 50 of his at least 90 companies there are subsidiaries or other entities affiliated with his #business #empire, such as the rocket company #SpaceX & the electric vehicle maker #Tesla, as well as his nonprofit #Musk Foundation. #law #fraud #elite #impunity #money #power

If you're going to sieg heil a #Tesla owner, make sure to flip them off. You don't want them thinking you're a fan. 🖕 😅 If it's a #Cybertruck, pointing and laughing is probably sufficient. #ProTip

Saw a bumper sticker: “Vintage Tesla: Pre-Madness edition”. That inspired me to go check: #Tesla’s stock price is down 20% this year. No crash, just a long, slow decline. When gas prices are shooting up and an EV maker isn’t profiting, it gives me an optimistic feeling.

undefined | Tesla wins Dutch approval to use self-driving features, a first for Europe Tesla owners in the Netherlands have become the first in Europe to be allowed to use Tesla’s Full Self‑Driving (Supervised) feature. The Dutch vehicle‑type approval agency (RDW) announced that, provided the driver remains in the seat and keeps a watchful eye on the system, the driver‑assistance function—covering steering, braking, navigation and parking—can be activated on Dutch roads. The decision mirrors the United States’ rules for the same feature and the agency said the technology has been examined for more than a year and a half on test tracks and public roads, with safety as its top priority. The RDW stressed that the supervised mode is not full autonomy; the driver must stay ready to take control at any moment, and responsibility for the vehicle remains with the human operator. Tesla’s European subsidiary welcomed the approval, announcing that “FSD Supervised has been approved in the Netherlands & will begin rolling out shortly,” and Elon Musk added congratulations on the platform X. The agency’s decision now awaits endorsement from the European Commission so that the national certification can be recognized across the EU. The approval comes as Tesla faces a tougher market in Europe, especially in the Netherlands, where sales have slowed amid concerns over Musk’s political activism and increasing competition from Chinese electric‑vehicle makers. Critics note that while the supervised feature offers a new selling point, it also highlights the regulatory and public‑trust challenges Tesla must navigate to expand its advanced driver‑assistance technologies throughout Europe.
