Hi Eric,

Again thanks for the great newsletter. However, on the Tesla recalls: it will be an OTA (over the air update). The media always presents it like a recall, but that's the formal "description" in the automobile sector- but not what actually happens (it will almost cost nothing for Tesla to do these updates). I think it's one of the greatest companies as of this moment, you should do a deepdive into FSD 12 Autopilot which works on end-to-end learning models and vision that is also being used in Bumblebee (the bot). The auto's and bot are basically trained on videos of e.g. other people or people's driving behavior and as such trained to behave and ride as a human. Also, the bot was never trained on reading research papers, it learned it by itself (which scared some people involved with the project you can imagine....).

Enjoy NYC!

Thanks for the thoughts and reading the Rosen Report. I am a ways away from getting into a self driving car. The AI development is scary and concerning and exciting. If the robots are trained in AI, they can take over your house!
