Elon Musk rewrites fast-moving Tesla cash storyThe electric-car maker’s CEO is mandating “hardcore” cost controls, admitting Tesla could burn $2.4 bln of new capital in 10 months. That puts growth plans in question. It also seems to contradict earlier rosier statements. Investors and watchdogs should have a few questions.

Elon Musk's Hefty Anti-LIDAR Gamble Undermines Tesla Chances Of SurvivalElon Musk has become the top promoter of the anti-LIDAR camp, yet the downsides for Tesla seem rather hefty and it is quite a large-scale bet on the survival of the Tesla brand. Good article. However, one important point the decision on anti-LIDAR is missing: Adding LIDAR would not only increase costs but complexity = more data points to be processed (dimensionality), different chip design, more energy consumption. If vision is sufficent, why LIDAR? elonmusk Tesla who is missing the point? Shooting lightbeams out of our heads or designing wheels based on human legs? As I understood it, what do we currently use to drive? Basically our eyes and we make it around quite fine. So whats happens when you give AI 360 vision? This article is so clogged with mistakes and important omission that it shouldn’t be call journalism. Just old FUD to try to take tesla stocks down. When a FSD Tesla car crashes is going to use footage of the 8 cameras to get off the hook. Period.

Elon reacts to Lidar elonmusk Nothing new in this article, what a waste of time. Of course if Teslas have a higher incidence of accidents and death it will be bad, regardless of the hardware. I'm guessing the opposite will be the case based on Musks history of innovation. This is a bit of a stretch! This isn't VHS vs Betamax. If a vehicle with a LIDAR based ADAS system crashes, will the OEM be sued for not using enough cameras?
