CEO Elon Musk struck a downbeat tone on the economy, again.
“One day it seems like the world economy is falling apart. And the next day everything’s fine. I don’t know what the hell is going on,” Musk told analysts on the earnings conference call.

Among those returning cash to Tesla as part of the derivative lawsuit settlement are board chair Robyn Denholm, who succeeded Musk in the role in 2018 as part of an SEC settlement, along with Musk’s brother, Kimbal Musk, Oracle founder Larry Ellison, who left the board in 2022, and Rupert Murdoch’s son, James Murdoch.

While named as a defendant in the suit, CEO Elon Musk isn’t among the board members who were asked to return funds, who were separately defined as “director defendants” in the settlement.

“It’s hard to bet against Elon,” but “there’s a lot of leaps of faith you need to make about SpaceX.”
Full Speed Death isn’t working right? Throw bigger models and more processors at it!
Heh, that’s basically what one of my profs did at one point when he lost track during deriving some function or other. He admitted that he was hopelessly stuck, said “only faith can help us now”, chalked a cross on the blackboard and then the end result which he had memorized. “You’ve got to believe me here, this is the correct result.” Which, in all fairness, it was.
I don’t know anything about his brother and what he’s doing - apparently, he runs a farming startup and is now laying a bunch of people off…
Member of the board at Tesla. So, nothing much.
… what makes him think people will keep using it if he changes the name
