I have kids and I like this but as we know, prohibition only makes the drink stronger and the thirst deeper.

This is probably one of those tickets on the backlog that is constantly kicked down the road. Always superseded by a new fire.
I never understood why Tesla valuation is orders of magnitude higher than honda
Besides being a meme stock, Tesla is also in the enviable position of owning its entire stack - software, hardware, chips, manufacturing etc., unlike Honda that has many critical components built by other manufacturers and not tightly integrated with the software. It is therefore well placed to make much more revenue per vehicle, if only the owner of the company can get out of its way.
What is remarkable about it?
For me - hands free operation. I love to use them at my kids games and events. Many times parents are trying to both watch and capture that special moment and fail at both. The LLM has so much potential but hobbled by the fact that it is supported by Llama.
Meta is onto something pretty remarkable. The only problem with their glasses is that they’re built by Meta.

What a time to be alive. 3 companies competing for what might be the next trillion dollar business.
- Waymo has the advantage of launching sooner but has much more expensive vehicles which will eat into margins.
- Tesla has the advantage of full vertical integration owns their hardware and cheaper cars but also trying to do this with vision only.
- Zoox has the advantage of building purpose-built autonomous vehicles from the ground up with Amazon's deep pockets behind them, but faces the challenge of manufacturing at scale for a novel vehicle.
Yes many over-rely on LLMs, but new engineers see possibilities we've stopped noticing and ask the questions we've stopped asking. Experience is invaluable, but it can quietly calcify into 'this is just how things are done.'
