@georgetakei yeah it is. It is time for the younger generation. Said as an X. This is something that I know is hard to understand for many boomers. But it is good to pass on the baton when it is time.

@arstechnica really hope they can recover it. At the same time if they can not wow, what a run Voyager 1 had.

@arstechnica It was a mistake for GM to kill of PHEV, they are far more practical for people who do not have access to daily charging facilities.

Elon Musk gives Tesla ultimatum: Another 12% of shares or no AI, robotics

Although 95% of its revenue is automotive, Musk says Tesla is a robotics/AI company.

@arstechnica It is fairly simple. No. Can’t blackmail the company into doubling Elon’s shares. All AI and Robotics so far built under Telsla is their IP not his. Also this would be a flip from Musk’s statement that Tesla was an energy company to AI/Robotics… Sorry Elon, if ya want to start a new company that is a different question all together.
