Here's the Tesla Cyberspace recap for those who missed it. Recording is on my timeline if you'd like to listen. It went about 4 hours.
(0:16:00) Tesla Cyberspace kicked off with our bots getting their own virtual office. Server racks, a usage meter on the wall, and office pets. One crew picked a tortoise, another a blocky orange cat. Is your bot crew getting an office yet? 🎃
(0:36:38) Starship Flight 15 still has no official date. Air traffic planning points to Thursday, November 12, and an earlier estimate said November 8. Nothing is set yet, so fingers crossed. 🚀
(0:41:12) CyberFest is raising $5,000 for pediatric cancer, mostly supporting kids actively going through treatment, plus local Florida research. Silent auctions are coming too. This community always shows up. 💙
(0:48:01) Italy and FSD: it looks like Italy will support it when the EU votes. One speaker who lived there six years says the rest of Italy moves at dinosaur speed outside Rome and Milan. Naples traffic might be the FSD final boss. 🇮🇹
(1:13:34) Governor DeSantis has asked Elon twice to expand Robotaxi and keeps hearing "soon." The room's take: Tesla expands when it knows it can do it safely, because a fatal accident right now would be detrimental to the program.
(1:35:11) A listener near Dallas Fort Worth Airport has seen several Cybercabs testing close to the airport this past week, with talk of testing in Fort Worth too. Some in the room expect a Dallas launch in November. Geofences linking up next? 🚕
(1:55:21) Big debate tonight: would you let your Tesla share dash cam footage with police? The room went back and forth on Flock cameras and surveillance, but kept landing on one thing. It has to be the owner's choice to opt in. Where do you land?
(2:24:03) New FSD referral announced during the space: send a Tesla owner a free month of FSD. If they sign up, you get a free month, or $99 in Tesla credit if you already own FSD. Limit is 12 months per year.
(2:46:54)
@JoshWest247 made the case for the old $250 referral. He sold cars for almost two decades, and paying a bird dog fee for referrals is customary. Plus referral credits often go right back into Tesla service and Supercharging. Miss the old program?
(4:45:34) We do Tesla Cyberspace every Thursday at 6:30 PM ET, and next week I've arranged something amazing. Can't say what yet. You'll be the first to know. 🎙️
