Well said. Tesla is a unique place with concentrated talent, resources and motivation.
Don't sleep on Tesla in humanoids just because they've gone quiet. Tesla bet on solving driving intelligence from vision alone, put a powerful inference computer in every car long before FSD was solved or profitable, and built the biggest robotics data flywheel. General-purpose humanoid needs the same systems, but on steroids. Debate the AI model architectures and actuator designs all you want. They definitely matter for setting the right direction. But what ultimately decides the outcome is the organizational strength that powers every decision. The trifecta: • Engineering: fast iteration, bringing new work in-house, pivoting quickly • Physical ops: manufacturing, data collection, supply chain, repairs, fleet management • Inference and training compute infra at massive scale Few companies can bring all three together at scale as well as Tesla.
