didn't he literally say they were going to boost profits by outsourcing all that idle processing power in all the Teslas on the market to some investor meeting a while back? Like sure it was a fuck dumb thing to say but I didn't doubt they'd do it

Maybe this is why owners are restricted from reselling/returning their trucks — Elon retains an ownership stake in them to collect the mined crypto 🤔

As someone who owned a Model S in the past I can confirm that Sentry Mode has always been a huge battery suck. I’m not saying Musk wouldn’t do it, but I am saying that if he is doing, he’s probably been doing it all along.

Yep, Musk said that the robotaxi fleet (and by tacit inference other idle Tesla vehicle stock) could use spare compute to run his AI Grok. Specifically talks about 'inference tasks' (responding to prompts). Frames as turning the fleet into his own AWS. So many questions.
