WEBVTT

00:00:10.719 --> 00:00:18.960
tesla released they didn't release it they announced it tesla announced their

00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:22.000
own full self-driving chip

00:00:18.960 --> 00:00:23.519
don't look at me that's pretty good

00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:30.480
so tesla had this thing called the autonomy investor day and the main thing

00:00:26.560 --> 00:00:32.079
was the full self-driving chip aka fsd

00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:35.760
all right this is their own chip this is their own chip originally they or they

00:00:34.160 --> 00:00:40.000
have been using NVIDIA for their self-driving chips as you know not

00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:45.760
anymore not anymore later see you later NVIDIA so the fsd chip according to elon

00:00:42.800 --> 00:00:50.399
musk it's the best chip in the world objectively trillions of operations it's

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

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

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

00:01:01.760 --> 00:01:07.840
it's unknown there are tweets from elon saying everyone's going to get the

00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:11.360
upgrade and as we've seen tweets from elon

00:01:08.960 --> 00:01:14.400
could mean anything in real life so so this new chip the new chip hardware

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

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

00:01:21.920 --> 00:01:27.119
cards that say full self driving they had that for

00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:30.880
but this is a different full self driving okay this time it's real you got

00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:35.840
full self driving then you got fuller self driving okay overflowing yeah

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

00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:44.479
five autonomy by by mid 2020 by mid 2020

00:01:42.720 --> 00:01:50.079
yeah tesla drivers will have level 5 autonomy with no geo fencing which

00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:53.600
presumably means that the car can just drive

00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:58.560
without really needing to have gps or maps it just will sense things from a

00:01:56.320 --> 00:02:04.240
technical perspective it'll have no geo fencing from a regulatory perspective it

00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:05.360
could i doubt very much that by mid 2020

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

00:02:08.239 --> 00:02:14.160
wherever you want to go don't doubt okay he makes these awesome claims that

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

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

00:02:20.480 --> 00:02:22.640
they're

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

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

00:02:31.760 --> 00:02:40.239
love tesla it doesn't doesn't sound like it to me

00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:40.239
well i did sell my stock

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

00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:51.760
uh it's built by samsung in in texas so not in korea keeping it

00:02:50.720 --> 00:02:57.120
local very cool and the pcb the the actual

00:02:54.720 --> 00:03:02.319
board itself contains two duplicate systems okay everything's bigger in

00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:04.720
texas um so that means that if errors or

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

00:03:07.440 --> 00:03:14.640
redundancy allows for that now the problem is that it's a dual chip system

00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:20.879
and tesla in their presentation compared it to NVIDIA's xavier system which is a

00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:26.000
single chip setup and NVIDIA didn't like this they said that the NVIDIA one was

00:03:23.200 --> 00:03:30.239
was 21 tops but it's actually 30 tops according to NVIDIA's yes retaliatory

00:03:28.959 --> 00:03:34.879
retaliatory blog post yeah clarifying NVIDIA came

00:03:32.720 --> 00:03:38.480
out swinging what NVIDIA said that tesla should have done instead of comparing it

00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:44.000
to the xavier which is you know 30 tops instead of 21 they

00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:46.400
should have compared it to the drive agx

00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:53.280
pegasus system which is a two chip system and it's capable of 320 tops

00:03:49.760 --> 00:03:56.480
compared to tesla's 144. the problem is

00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:59.760
that NVIDIA's system also has a TDP of

00:03:56.480 --> 00:04:02.640
500 watts whereas tesla's new fsd chip

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

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

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

00:04:14.239 --> 00:04:21.519
event was that tesla will launch an autonomous taxi service

00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:24.479
and this will be up also by next year well obviously you need to have full

00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:29.280
self-driving before you can have the full self-driving taxi service

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

00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:36.560
months at least and even a few months i mean i feel like

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

00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:45.199
right now and my car is just off somewhere gallivanting you can get to

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

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

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

00:04:56.240 --> 00:05:03.040
car from you know two cities over i wonder if you have to approve the riders

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

00:05:04.479 --> 00:05:10.720
good rating maybe you could have cameras in the in the cab like their

00:05:08.400 --> 00:05:14.080
profile come up they're like you're not getting my car stinky

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

00:05:17.440 --> 00:05:22.639
uh tesla is gonna be taking a cut

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

00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:30.320
taxi tesla gets 25 to 30 percent i mean

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

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

00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:41.919
example you used model three presumably if uh there's it's gonna be like uber

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

00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:49.840
something like that right i would expect that that's gonna be covered by tesla

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

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

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

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

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

00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:17.600
don't know exactly all the cars that they make over the next year you know

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

00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:27.919
five years to launch it by the time this launches so partially

00:06:25.840 --> 00:06:32.160
because of the luxuries that are being afforded to you by the full self-driving

00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:37.039
chip and partially because of the money you could make by renting out your car

00:06:34.560 --> 00:06:41.360
as a robo taxi musk said during the stream that it's financially insane for

00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:44.800
someone to buy anything other than a tesla right now

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

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

00:06:51.840 --> 00:06:58.800
is the benchmark that he puts forward for going to mars full self driving

00:06:56.720 --> 00:07:02.560
everything he wants to do meanwhile other experts are saying that

00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:06.880
fully autonomous cars could be as much as 10 years away

00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:11.520
so i mean here's a question from this should we fault him for

00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:16.080
trying to push the industry forward in in such an intense way as he does should

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

00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:23.840
about or should we be like that man's a visionary i want to marry

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

00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:31.919
makes these dates does he actually believe he'll hit those targets i think

00:07:30.080 --> 00:07:35.440
they're super optimistic i think if we lived in a world where everything goes

00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:39.039
right and he doesn't hit any unforeseen engineering or regulatory snags then

00:07:37.039 --> 00:07:43.360
maybe we could make those dates if everything lined up they could probably

00:07:40.960 --> 00:07:47.280
make it but that just won't happen so yeah at this point investors and the

00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:51.280
public large know to take those dates with a grain of salt bloomberg has this

00:07:49.280 --> 00:07:56.879
very helpful graphic of all of the promises that elon musk has made in

00:07:53.919 --> 00:08:00.720
regards to his various ventures and uh it's very interesting to see to go down

00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:06.080
the list and see which ones were two years late three months late canceled 10

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

00:08:07.919 --> 00:08:13.360
care about model 3 release date announcement he hit it

00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:16.479
on schedule and i should say wait wait wait wait the announcement was on

00:08:15.039 --> 00:08:20.720
schedule yep but i should say

00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:25.440
but i should say that the full self-driving chip the fsd chip is on

00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:29.680
schedule the announcement of that so uh he said six months ago that it would

00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:35.440
come out today or yesterday and they hit that so if they can hit that

00:08:33.839 --> 00:08:40.080
they can hit anything going to mars baby we're going to mars let's go

00:08:38.959 --> 00:08:44.159
i think that should just be the end of the show let's go

00:08:47.040 --> 00:08:53.120
wow we're here already oh this is mars i

00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:58.480
can't breathe so deadlines aside though this is an exciting announcement i mean

00:08:56.000 --> 00:09:03.040
it has a lower TDP and higher performance than it appears anything on

00:09:00.959 --> 00:09:06.800
the market today correct me if i'm wrong people in the comments and also people

00:09:04.880 --> 00:09:09.519
in the comments you can let us know would you rent out

00:09:08.560 --> 00:09:14.480
your tesla vehicle to complete strangers to

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

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

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

00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:30.320
would i definitely would i yeah i'm buying one

00:09:28.160 --> 00:09:34.880
yeah i'm gonna do that i feel like i would

00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:38.720
do it once as a test and then that's stupid

00:09:39.920 --> 00:09:46.640
you get one good person or one bad person that doesn't inform the future

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

00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:55.760
hit us up in the comments would you let strangers put their gross greasy or sexy

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

00:09:57.519 --> 00:10:03.279
about this format because it's new

00:10:01.360 --> 00:10:08.080
and we don't know what it is as you might be able to tell

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

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

00:10:15.680 --> 00:10:22.000
no times different people dennis anyone you want dennis

00:10:19.760 --> 00:10:22.000
not
