Shares of Chinese robotics‑component suppliers climbed after a local report said Tesla teams had arrived in the country to audit suppliers and place additional orders to boost production of its Optimus humanoid model bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

NHTSA announced today that they are developing a new federal safety standard specifically for autonomous driving system performance to prepare for larger-scale Robotaxi deployments in the U.S. Instead of regulations saying a car must have this particular physical control or design, NHTSA says it wants more regulations focused on whether the autonomous vehicle can actually perform safely. Morrison (the head of NHTSA) specifically says the standards should include measurable driving competencies and repeatable ways of testing them. NHTSA also announced that it: • Is launching the ASCEND consortium with SAE to accelerate development of AV performance standards • Is developing a national AV “competency standard” • Is updating federal safety rules to accommodate vehicles designed without human drivers or traditional controls • Has proposed changes to five major federal vehicle safety standards, with “many more coming” • Is developing new AV guidance aimed at helping the industry transition from testing to “mid-scale driverless deployments” • Is working on standards covering emergency responders, remote assistance and safety management systems • Plans to prioritize safety performance over specific vehicle designs • Will continue investigations, enforcement and recalls when AVs pose unreasonable safety risks NHTSA says the goal is to create a national framework for determining whether an autonomous vehicle is a safe driver. Great to finally see the government taking autonomous vehicles seriously and trying to make changes to old laws that were intended for manual driven vehicles.

Physical AI is the same race every time: who collects the most real-world data, then trains it fastest. Tesla won on autonomy with FSD because it had the largest vehicle fleet plus Cortex and custom silicon. Tesla will build thousands of Optimus robots this year and will win humanoids the same way: the largest Optimus swarm, trained on the same stack. This time the fleet has hands.

MI6, the Secret Intelligence Service, did not give Burnham an emphatic ‘Don’t do it’ message, but it outlined that it could risk intelligence-sharing with Israel. ‘People in 6 are pulling their hair out,’ says an influential Labour figure close to the security services. ‘They presented warnings about the consequences of doing this.’ That source even suggests that Sa’ar only took Miliband’s call after a request was passed on by MI6 via Mossad. Netanyahu routinely refuses to talk to British politicians. A non-political source with deep roots in the intelligence community has this to say: ‘If you appear like a lightweight who will selectively virtue-signal, you’re not going to be taken seriously again.’ He says that Mossad already views MI6 as competent but overcautious: ‘The relationship was difficult because we did national security, the Israelis do national survival. I think the Israelis see us as pretty professional, but a bunch of pussies in terms of the methods that we would use.’ ✍️ Tim Shipman Article | spectator.com/article/reveal… | @ShippersUnbound

We’ve had an AI breakthrough at Figure and will be showcasing this tomorrow

USA. tiene que hacer MUCHO más, reducir el consumo, la venta de armas el lavado de dinero en sus bancos y contrarrestar la distribución de FENTANILO en los 51 Estados de USA. ARRESTAR A LOS ASESINOS DISTRIBUIDORES EN USA. Atentamente los Mexicanos @marcorubio @injuryinvestor

Statement from Robert Kraft

据传，习近平在印度主办的金砖峰会上晕倒，经随行医疗团队的紧急救治后，提前结束对印度的访问，搭乘专机返回中国。飞机抵达北京机场后，北京当局没有安排大批官员接机，也没有组织欢迎仪式，而是用军用直升机，直接将习近平送到了北京301医院，进行急救。 据称，经北京301医院专家团队的诊断，确定习近平患了严重的缺血性中风，也就是短暂的脑梗死。由于习近平怕印度方面获取他的身体健康信息，所以，他拒绝在印度医院进行紧急救治，而是搭乘专机返回北京救治。由于飞行途中，没有手术条件，医疗团队只能痛殴保守型治疗，维持习近平的生命，因此，习近平已经失去了黄金急救和手术时间。在北京301医院，习近平即使能通过手术进行治疗，但很大的可能性，会留下严重的后遗症。 目前，北京当局还无法确认，习近平能否在访美前恢复健康，所以，北京当局还在等待，看是否需要取消9月下旬的访美行程。

Goldman Sachs just raised its 2035 humanoid forecast to ~$140B as cheaper Chinese robots push costs lower and volumes higher. The biggest winners will be underneath the robot itself as component suppliers win no matter which manufacturer takes share.

I keep watching the feet in @adcock_brett's silent Figure clip. The symbol is simple to understand: the humanoid that can exit a self-driving vehicle and keep walking in the open starts to look like the last meters of delivery. nitter.cf/adcock_brett/status/20…

He’s the holdout juror. I’m local and would gladly buy him a beer 🍻

There's a certain type of person who needs to convince himself that everything he's jealous of is a trade-off This is the opposite of how it works. Someone with the traits to succeed in one area very likely can succeed in another!

Have u noticed that every successful person on this app played wow
