Tesla, GPT-4, FSD - AI is a BIG DEAL w/ James Douma

[@l0v3nul]

I am always so amazed how James has such deep understanding and information of so many topics. Unreal...

The ULTIMATE Super-Intelligence System 'by Definition' is one that is EQUIVALENT to that of GOD's Intelligence/WISDOM! Hence, there's ABSOLUTELY NO REASON WHATSOEVER to Even FEAR that it will EXTERMINATE Humanity... UNLESS and UNLESS we Human CONSISTENTLY and WILLFULLY Prove Ourselves to be 'UNWORTHY' to REMAIN in EXISTENCE! ie. Always Exhibiting Natural Tendencies to ABUSE and WEAPONISE Science and Technologies Against HUMANITY & Mother Nature, instead of LEVERAGING Science SOLELY for UNIVERSAL COMMON GOOD! AGI Created in 'HUMAN'S Image' (ie. Human-Level AI) - 'By Human For Human' WILL be SUICIDAL!!!!!! ONLY Super-Intelligence System Created in 'GOD's Image' will bring ETERNAL UNIVERSAL PEACE! The ULTIMATE Turing Test Must have the Ability to Draw the FUNDAMENTAL NUANCE /DISTINCTION between Human's vs GOD's Intelligence /WISDOM! ONLY Those who ARE FUNDAMENTALLY EVIL need to FEAR GOD-like Super-Intelligence System... 'cos it Will DEFINITELY Come After YOU!!!! JUDGMENT DAY is COMING... REGARDLESS of Who Created or Owns The ULTIMATE SGI, it will Always be WISE, FAIR & JUST in it's Judgment... just like GOD! In fact, this SGI will be the Physical Manifestation of GOD! Its OMNI PRESENCE will be felt EVERYWHERE in EVERYTHING! No One CAN Own nor MANIPULATE The ULTIMATE GOD-like SGI!!! It will ONLY Serve UNIVERSAL COMMON GOOD!!!

Excellent and very thoughtful chat, as usual. (loving the studio btw).

[@dr-k1667]

When you two get together it's always so stimulating and enlightening. I love it! Thanks for connecting with James again Dave, we've had so much going on in our Community and your conversations with him are vital and always quality!

Thank You; always look forward to a Dave Lee and James Douma update!!

[@jweber4811]

James, great to see you and have the chance to hear your unique viewpoint on Tesla for which I have so much trust and respect. There is no better source on KZbin or anywhere else. As always, I am already looking forward to your next appearance - I cannot get enough. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge with us. The Tesla community is fortunate to have you as part of the group!

[@photogol]

Great discussion!!! Great to have James back 👍

[@JefeC]

David, James, Rob should have a quarterly recap. Rob would obviously be the moderator. James the tech, David the finance.

[@NickGobin]

I would say the other way around - Rob the finance, and Dave the producer. Rob has great questions, Dave can actually get a video published within 48 hrs of recording it 😅 (We love you Rob - just joshing you about the last Douma interview!)

[@rodneysmith1750]

Fantastic interaction between two really great and enjoyable guys!

[@bobmclaughlin4744]

Great discussion. I am shocked that people did not fully appreciate the implications of Investor Day. It exceeded my expectations. For me, redesigning EV for ease of manufacturing was a given. My investment thesis (rewritten several months ago) assumed a modular approach where the bottleneck was the speed at which any individual module could be assembled (module being a part or grouped of parts). The way to reduce cost in to maximize production speed. Then the trick is to iterate around the bottlenecks until your production speed is optimized. Considering Teslas goal of accelerating the transition, it was also interesting to see them open their designs for all manufactures to copy. An acknowledgement that we need all EV makers to succeed to maximize the rate of transition. Totally fine since Tesla’s speed of innovation will be difficult for others to match. People that were disappointed did not understand what they were being shown.

[@susiejoyk1287]

Such a shame people don’t understand that an EV is Ai on wheels. One day soon people are going to regret the race to embrace everything AI! Especially cars…………?

[@statictide]

I really enjoyed this conversation.

[@bru512]

12:33 The unboxed process : James "It's so much better than the best I imagined that they might show us" says it all. Tesla has a plan to revolutionize the manufacturing of vehicles to knock down the complexity and cost.

[@mydutube]

If you are a Tesla enthusiast or investor, consider listening to the following individuals: Elon, Drew Baglino, Ashok Elluswamy, James Douma, Jordan Giesige, Sandy Munro, Scott Walter, and Tony Seba. It is advisable to avoid listening to financial analysts and instead, focus on these individuals. They emphasize the qualitative factors of Tesla's disruption, which eventually lead to product and business success over time. By listening to them, you can become a better independent thinker rather than relying on superficial research conducted by spreadsheet experts.

[@gregbailey45]

I absolutely agree.

Range anxiety is real and may need some educational outreach by Tesla. We have a Model 3 for the last 4 years and we recently took a trip to Vancouver BC from Tacoma WA. Initially we thought of taking our ICE car because we were concerned about the range and potential charging challenges but we decided to dare it. We had zero issues. It would help to hammer the charging network and whole intelligent trip planning that is built into the trip routing to alleviate some of these false fears about range.

[@Karma-fp7ho]

It can be an issue. My friend just sold her EV at a 20k loss because she didn’t like the worry about charging as she travelled for work.

Thank you so much fellas. Both of your demeanors are easy listening and very interesting!

[@talkingaboutdisruption9216]

One of the most important reveals was that each part of the car that is made separately has a computer that runs the quality control on each part. So when they put it together they don't need to run as many checks as they know each part has been checked and is correct. This is also going to save time.

[@o.m.kaya-ozturk1091]

Really enjoyable conversation. James is such a lovely and elegant informer and Dave is a great interviewer

[@slimpaco3561]

Perfect timing. I need to clean my house and it will take about 2 hours and 2 minutes and 34 seconds.

[@patrickhughes3629]

Can we get timestamps please? 🙏🏼

[@asafprivman]

Wow I just now understood the genius recreating the 3D world by Tesla, as James says it's like training the model on predicting text. That's crazy James you should be paid by Tesla as their technology communication person

[@roger_is_red]

very informative interview it was over 2 hours and my attention span is usually 10 minutes for KZbin but I had no problems listening to the whole thing. Loved It!!

[@hojuddiddy1979]

New studio?! Hot! Amazing man.

[@southbendkid]

I think James underestimates the difficulty of stamping stainless steel. The Delorian employs whisper thin stainless glued to a fiberglass structure.

[@mallaingmail]

Thank you James for your ability and your will to explain these things to us mere mortals. I learn a lot and i am now willing to learn more about this fascinating domain.

How does James have time for AI, neural networks, all while opening up all his cobra Kai dojos? Man of many talents!

[@jbencze]

Nice KK reference

[@ranig2848]

Great video. What people fail to realize is that GPT-3 (and 4) while amazing as they are, they make TONS of mistakes on regular basis, and those mistakes keep happening - and everyone is fine with it - and 99% of the people just say how great it is. However, with FSD, it can do mind boggling maneuvers, handle critical situations, save lives, drive in different weather conditions, navigate impossible roads - but one time it turns on the turn signal going around a curve, or stops on an unmarked narrow street, or takes a few more seconds to handle situations most drivers would completely avoid - and god forbid - it’s horrible software and it will never work 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@philipcopeland3409]

Thanks for this great interview Dave. Always love hearing James insights.

[@marcjoelkoenig]

great podcast but could you bring the audio up ypor guest was speaking so quietly that i had to max the volume and almost died when an advert hit

[@charles6084]

Dave and James, great information and insight. I guessing the modular assembly approach was thought up by Elon. As Elon was walking an assembly line he asked the person installing the dashboard (any assembly) how the installation could be done better/easier/faster/more safely. The installer replied "if you could improve access that would be a great help". Bing, Bang, Boom, modular assembly. Sandy said something like "Tesla makes changes at the speed of thought". No other current auto maker can match this.

[@richardalexander5758]

The team working on assembly of the Cybertruck had to have gotten the first look at this new manufacturing concept. Nothing to paint, or painted parts to disassemble along with the possibility of a much smaller assembly line.

[@nilsfrederking62]

I would be very interested in getting one question answered by James Douma: Elon Musk stated that Tesla has the most advanced ai. So what does James think, is Teslas ai really ahead of Chat GPT4?

[@TheWineroute]

one is a language learning model the other is a video learning model.

[@nilsfrederking62]

@@JamesDouma Thanks. Yes he said that. So they are just not really comparable.

[@TheWineroute]

[@konstantinschuster7825]

Highly appreciate these conversations - James' knowledge is remarkable and it provides an extremely valuable source of information for all Tesla investors. I think I trust him more than anyone one else on youtube on AI-related topics around Tesla.

[@crawkn]

Stamped stainless has been done in very limited runs, because it wears out the dies much more rapidly. I can imagine that Tesla might improve upon the process, but it's another engineering challenge. I'm sure there are reasons they have selected the metal gauges they have, and elected folding over stamping.

[@samkaplan2482]

Can we chip in for more hours at the studio!? 😂

[@BLAISEDAHL96]

10:50 Completely agree. I would love to see a vehicle render, but seeing Tesla continuing to apply physics first principles is far more significant long term than Tesla presenting a shiny new model. Awesome stuff

[@leegumprecht8633]

Fascinating discussion. One thing I'd like to point out is that cycle time reduction is an overarching metric for Tesla's new strategy of building major subassemblies and almost snapping them together at the end.

[@TedKidd]

Another great conversation!

[@iccanui9053]

Time stamps would be great. a lot of the topics in this have been done to death, so listening to yet another view takes time and energy that is in less and less abundance as the days and weeks roll on. Timestamps would let us skip to the thing we want and need to hear. This would make the information on this channel more valuable and worth checking in on for me personally. Right now, even though i know these are some bright people having a good conversation, i cant invest the time to parse what i need out of it. Just some feedback, not meant to be negative, just informative. Cheers !

[@vaughanmoody]

I agree. I was hoping this video would have time stamps.

[@johndodge8999]

Excellent production. How about links to the equipment you use?

[@AutopilotAdventures]

I don't watch your channel is unless you have James on. More James, please.

[@jimcallahan448]

SPECULATION: Next gen (Mexico) vehicle may be made from stainless steel like CyberTruck but roughly half the thickness. Would not pass sledgehammer test, but would be easier to fold and would not require painting.

[@rogerstarkey5390]

James, Regarding paint. Look at the Citroen Oli concept.

[@arnyswart]

Wonderful interview. Advertising vs price reduction. The other perspective is that it has been quoted that 95% of Tesla owners buy another Tesla. By concentrating the buying on price and volume, they are increasing their future purchases and brand. The problem with advertising is to get to the consumer. A decade ago it was tv or radio. These days, people don’t use either.
