Im calling it now. Nikola is done. Trevor is exposed. If the research report wasn't true, he could have destroyed it by simply releasing unedited video of the test. He didn't. Instead, he lawyers up. Begining of the end.

- Elon Musk couldn’t get control of OpenAI - Elon left OpenAI - Elon pushed Tesla, deeply under his control, to advanced its AI effort - going as far as saying it would play a role in AGI - Elon impulsively offers to buy Twitter, but he tries to back out when he realizes he is

I'm having real issues with this one. We have been hearing Elon hammering and shaming OpenAI about its move to for-profit for months when he, in fact, agreed that a for-profit move was the way to go – though only if he was in control either directly through a new entity or

Another record month for @ElectrekCo with over 23 million visits from over 9 million readers. People's interest in electric vehicles keeps growing. We are basically mainstream now haha. Over 400 million visits to date. When do we hit a billion?

I am not one to generally complain about mainstream media not reporting on this or that, but this is one that is going under the radar right now that shouldn't. Decentralized energy storage is replacing peaker plants in real-time and it's incredible:

@elonmusk Tesla should offer the possibility of getting a refund to everyone who ordered the Full Self-Driving package.

The 23rd Tesla car ever made (owned by @chrispaine ). It was made a decade ago. 10 years later, Tesla has now put well over 500,000 all-electric cars on the road and kickstarted the rEVolution in a big way. I believe They’ll make over 500,000 EVs next year alone. @Tesla @elonmusk

The way mainstream media is treating @elonmusk following the @joerogan interview is ridiculous. Based on those standards, guests are having meltdowns on JRE every week.

@elonmusk I think a lot of people talking about "refresh" refer to DESIGN refreshes, which Tesla has done in the past (Model S 2016), and not necessarily hardware improvements.

Another @ElectrekCo exclusive: Tesla has hired a top manufacturing executive from Bosch to help Zhu with Gigafactory operations. The guy is a doctor in physics, right up Elon's ally, and he spent the last 25 years leading engineering and manufacturing programs at Bosch,

@elonmusk I've always defended Tesla when it comes to fires after crashes and the investigations that followed, but I think coverage of fires starting seemingly on their own without crashes (like when parked or charging) is fair. Those fires definitely need to be investigated right?
