1
00:00:10,719 --> 00:00:18,960
tesla released they didn't release it they announced it tesla announced their

2
00:00:15,679 --> 00:00:22,000
own full self-driving chip

3
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:23,519
don't look at me that's pretty good

4
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:30,480
so tesla had this thing called the autonomy investor day and the main thing

5
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:32,079
was the full self-driving chip aka fsd

6
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:35,760
all right this is their own chip this is their own chip originally they or they

7
00:00:34,160 --> 00:00:40,000
have been using NVIDIA for their self-driving chips as you know not

8
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:45,760
anymore not anymore later see you later NVIDIA so the fsd chip according to elon

9
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:50,399
musk it's the best chip in the world objectively trillions of operations it's

10
00:00:48,480 --> 00:00:54,960
just if you are if you are an objective you know that it's the best okay so this

11
00:00:52,800 --> 00:01:00,399
chip is going to be in all new teslas going forward you can drop it into old

12
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:04,000
tesla's as an upgrade because i saw that you would have to pay for the upgrade

13
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:07,840
it's unknown there are tweets from elon saying everyone's going to get the

14
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:11,360
upgrade and as we've seen tweets from elon

15
00:01:08,960 --> 00:01:14,400
could mean anything in real life so so this new chip the new chip hardware

16
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:19,439
level three what is that gonna let people do what it'll let you do james is

17
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:24,240
have full self driving so they've had an option on their site right now to order

18
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:27,119
cards that say full self driving they had that for

19
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:30,880
but this is a different full self driving okay this time it's real you got

20
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:35,840
full self driving then you got fuller self driving okay overflowing yeah

21
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:42,720
what it sounds like is that the fsd chip will give you the ability to have level

22
00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:44,479
five autonomy by by mid 2020 by mid 2020

23
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:50,079
yeah tesla drivers will have level 5 autonomy with no geo fencing which

24
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:53,600
presumably means that the car can just drive

25
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:58,560
without really needing to have gps or maps it just will sense things from a

26
00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:04,240
technical perspective it'll have no geo fencing from a regulatory perspective it

27
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:05,360
could i doubt very much that by mid 2020

28
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:10,160
you'll be able to drive this thing in self-driving mode anywhere in the us hey

29
00:02:08,239 --> 00:02:14,160
wherever you want to go don't doubt okay he makes these awesome claims that

30
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:17,760
make you excited but my guess would be if it hits 2020 at all it would be the

31
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:22,640
end of 2020 in december you'll be able to be in nevada and nevada alone because

32
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,640
they're

33
00:02:23,599 --> 00:02:28,959
and then as soon as you cross the border you got to be driving it uh james you

34
00:02:26,959 --> 00:02:33,040
know that we get in trouble from tesla uh fans they think we're tesla haters i

35
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:40,239
love tesla it doesn't doesn't sound like it to me

36
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,239
well i did sell my stock

37
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:48,160
so like let's talk a little bit more about this chip okay so we know what we're talking about so

38
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:51,760
uh it's built by samsung in in texas so not in korea keeping it

39
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:57,120
local very cool and the pcb the the actual

40
00:02:54,720 --> 00:03:02,319
board itself contains two duplicate systems okay everything's bigger in

41
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:04,720
texas um so that means that if errors or

42
00:03:02,319 --> 00:03:09,280
damage on one chip is detected the other one can uh take over and you know that

43
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:14,640
redundancy allows for that now the problem is that it's a dual chip system

44
00:03:12,159 --> 00:03:20,879
and tesla in their presentation compared it to NVIDIA's xavier system which is a

45
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:26,000
single chip setup and NVIDIA didn't like this they said that the NVIDIA one was

46
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:30,239
was 21 tops but it's actually 30 tops according to NVIDIA's yes retaliatory

47
00:03:28,959 --> 00:03:34,879
retaliatory blog post yeah clarifying NVIDIA came

48
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:38,480
out swinging what NVIDIA said that tesla should have done instead of comparing it

49
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:44,000
to the xavier which is you know 30 tops instead of 21 they

50
00:03:40,879 --> 00:03:46,400
should have compared it to the drive agx

51
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:53,280
pegasus system which is a two chip system and it's capable of 320 tops

52
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:56,480
compared to tesla's 144. the problem is

53
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:59,760
that NVIDIA's system also has a TDP of

54
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:02,640
500 watts whereas tesla's new fsd chip

55
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:05,439
has 100 watts oh very low they didn't mention that on their blog they didn't

56
00:04:04,159 --> 00:04:11,439
no they didn't want they were saying it would be more apples to apples comparison yeah tops wise or at least

57
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:16,799
die ones yeah yeah so one of the more bold claims that uh elon made during the

58
00:04:14,239 --> 00:04:21,519
event was that tesla will launch an autonomous taxi service

59
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:24,479
and this will be up also by next year well obviously you need to have full

60
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:29,280
self-driving before you can have the full self-driving taxi service

61
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:33,040
there's no way that they're gonna launch the same day yeah there's gonna be a few

62
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:36,560
months at least and even a few months i mean i feel like

63
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:41,120
there's gonna be some troubleshooting if i own a tesla i can be at work like i am

64
00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:45,199
right now and my car is just off somewhere gallivanting you can get to

65
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:48,479
work you can be like thanks a lot tesla i love you so much go give me some money

66
00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:53,360
right when you get to the building you just toggle it on your app to say now you're part of the network yep and then

67
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:58,560
you can i guess see where it is on the map hopefully like somebody didn't call your

68
00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:03,040
car from you know two cities over i wonder if you have to approve the riders

69
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:06,400
like when you're an uber driver yeah you see someone else like hey they've got a

70
00:05:04,479 --> 00:05:10,720
good rating maybe you could have cameras in the in the cab like their

71
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:14,080
profile come up they're like you're not getting my car stinky

72
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:18,320
someone's like yeah i'm looking for a ride dude no no no no i also read that

73
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:22,639
uh tesla is gonna be taking a cut

74
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:28,000
even if you own the car and it's your car and it's out there right being a

75
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:30,320
taxi tesla gets 25 to 30 percent i mean

76
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:34,400
who cares if it's a 25 to 30 cut if you could make 30 000 a year that's what he

77
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:38,800
said with a model three you can make 30 000 a year well yeah or that's the

78
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:41,919
example you used model three presumably if uh there's it's gonna be like uber

79
00:05:40,479 --> 00:05:46,479
where there's insurance or same with airbnb if someone gets in my car and gets blood all over the seat or

80
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:49,840
something like that right i would expect that that's gonna be covered by tesla

81
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:54,720
that's a good point i didn't know and i will pay for that right i will pay tesla

82
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:57,919
to take care of that stuff you wait i would love to pay tesla to take care of

83
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:01,759
that stuff for me oh that's what the cut is for that's what i mean i see yes

84
00:06:01,840 --> 00:06:09,759
so musk says that this service will have 1 million cars on the road so that would

85
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:14,240
be all the cars that they've shipped so far well they hit 300 000 in 2018 so we

86
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:17,600
don't know exactly all the cars that they make over the next year you know

87
00:06:16,479 --> 00:06:23,360
what they probably will have a million cars on the road by the time this launches really well if it takes them

88
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:27,919
five years to launch it by the time this launches so partially

89
00:06:25,840 --> 00:06:32,160
because of the luxuries that are being afforded to you by the full self-driving

90
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:37,039
chip and partially because of the money you could make by renting out your car

91
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:41,360
as a robo taxi musk said during the stream that it's financially insane for

92
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:44,800
someone to buy anything other than a tesla right now

93
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:48,400
they will be like owning a horse in three years i mean fine if you're an a

94
00:06:47,039 --> 00:06:53,759
horse but you should go into it with that expectation next year and it seems like three years

95
00:06:51,840 --> 00:06:58,800
is the benchmark that he puts forward for going to mars full self driving

96
00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:02,560
everything he wants to do meanwhile other experts are saying that

97
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:06,880
fully autonomous cars could be as much as 10 years away

98
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:11,520
so i mean here's a question from this should we fault him for

99
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:16,080
trying to push the industry forward in in such an intense way as he does should

100
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:19,280
we see these claims and and be like ah musk you don't know what you're talking

101
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:23,840
about or should we be like that man's a visionary i want to marry

102
00:07:21,919 --> 00:07:28,319
him i would say a bit of both i think uh well do i think does he mean it when he

103
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:31,919
makes these dates does he actually believe he'll hit those targets i think

104
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:35,440
they're super optimistic i think if we lived in a world where everything goes

105
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:39,039
right and he doesn't hit any unforeseen engineering or regulatory snags then

106
00:07:37,039 --> 00:07:43,360
maybe we could make those dates if everything lined up they could probably

107
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:47,280
make it but that just won't happen so yeah at this point investors and the

108
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:51,280
public large know to take those dates with a grain of salt bloomberg has this

109
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:56,879
very helpful graphic of all of the promises that elon musk has made in

110
00:07:53,919 --> 00:08:00,720
regards to his various ventures and uh it's very interesting to see to go down

111
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:06,080
the list and see which ones were two years late three months late canceled 10

112
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:09,680
days late he has made deadlines before he can do it which ones any of that i

113
00:08:07,919 --> 00:08:13,360
care about model 3 release date announcement he hit it

114
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:16,479
on schedule and i should say wait wait wait wait the announcement was on

115
00:08:15,039 --> 00:08:20,720
schedule yep but i should say

116
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:25,440
but i should say that the full self-driving chip the fsd chip is on

117
00:08:22,879 --> 00:08:29,680
schedule the announcement of that so uh he said six months ago that it would

118
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:35,440
come out today or yesterday and they hit that so if they can hit that

119
00:08:33,839 --> 00:08:40,080
they can hit anything going to mars baby we're going to mars let's go

120
00:08:38,959 --> 00:08:44,159
i think that should just be the end of the show let's go

121
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:53,120
wow we're here already oh this is mars i

122
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:58,480
can't breathe so deadlines aside though this is an exciting announcement i mean

123
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:03,040
it has a lower TDP and higher performance than it appears anything on

124
00:09:00,959 --> 00:09:06,800
the market today correct me if i'm wrong people in the comments and also people

125
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:09,519
in the comments you can let us know would you rent out

126
00:09:08,560 --> 00:09:14,480
your tesla vehicle to complete strangers to

127
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:19,360
use as a robo taxi would you would i lend out my car for someone else to use

128
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:22,959
my current car no because i don't want them driving it hard and ruining it but

129
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:26,080
they don't have to drive that car that's a good point so i think uh i think i

130
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:30,320
would i definitely would i yeah i'm buying one

131
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:34,880
yeah i'm gonna do that i feel like i would

132
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:38,720
do it once as a test and then that's stupid

133
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:46,640
you get one good person or one bad person that doesn't inform the future

134
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:50,320
i don't want to i'm not screwing around here all right people who aren't stupid

135
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:55,760
hit us up in the comments would you let strangers put their gross greasy or sexy

136
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:58,959
butts in your car seats we want to know and we also want to know what you think

137
00:09:57,519 --> 00:10:03,279
about this format because it's new

138
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:08,080
and we don't know what it is as you might be able to tell

139
00:10:05,279 --> 00:10:11,519
do you have an outro for this show nope love you so much subscribe i guess if

140
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:18,399
you want we don't know whether we're gonna make more of these we could do this twice a week we could or once or no

141
00:10:15,680 --> 00:10:22,000
no times different people dennis anyone you want dennis

142
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,000
not
