Elon Musk in China to discuss enabling full self driving

[Elon Musk is visiting Beijing with media reports
saying he aims to discuss enabling autonomous
driving mode on Tesla cars in China.
Mr Musk wants to enable Full Self Driving (FSD)
in China and transfer data collected
in the country abroad to train its algorithms.

FSD is available in countries including
the US but not in China.

The news came after a US report tied Tesla's
autonomous driving modes to at
least 13 crashes, involving one death.

During a meeting with Chinese Premier
Li Qiang, Mr Musk was quoted by state
media as saying Tesla was willing deep
cooperation with China to
"achieve more win-win results".

In response, Mr Li told Mr Musk the
Chinese market would "always be open
to foreign-funded firms,"
according to the reports.

China is Tesla's second-biggest market.
Other carmakers such as Xpeng - headquartered
in Guangzhou - have been attempting
to compete with Tesla by rolling out similar
self-driving functions in their cars.]

Sun 28 Apr 2024 13.45 BST

Tesla CEO Elon Musk arrived in Beijing on Sunday
on an unannounced visit, where he is
expected to meet senior officials to discuss
the rollout of Full Self-Driving software and
permission to transfer data overseas,
according to a person with knowledge
of the matter.

Chinese state media reported that
he met Premier Li Qiang in Beijing,
during which Li told Musk that Tesla’s
development in China could be seen as
a successful example of
US-China economic and trade cooperation.

The US electric vehicle maker rolled out
Full Self-Driving, or FSD,
the most autonomous version of
its Autopilot software,
four years ago but has yet
to make it available in China,
its second-largest market,
despite customers urging it to do so.]

Remember when he said, in response to whether his Tweets were damaging his business, 'Give me money, give me power, I don't care.'



Whatever happened to that?

"Whatever happened to that? "


Yes James
he is letting all on Twitter
even if they are Extreme.


His freedom view is dangerous.


But my Twitter feed of Professional Musicians
and Politics has not changed.
