Could a Tesla sense when a driver is in distress? Like if they black out. That happened to a friend of mine today--she was on a heavy mix of heart meds and she passed out behind the wheel. She's fine--but her van is messed up.

Operating on a prime directive of crash avoidance, it could automatically intervene when crash probability is approaching 100%

I just heard that @elonmusk told @joerogan he wants to trial patients for Neuralink by next year, and thus begins my campaign to get on either man's radar in order to be a trial patient.
This is exactly the sort of technology that might give chronic pain patients a new life.
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · May 8, 2020
Pain can certainly be turned off, but we’re not sure what the best initial test case (max goodness for least risk to patient) would be quite yet

Could a Tesla technically sense a baby left in a carseat? Give a warning?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · May 8, 2020
Teslas automatically maintain their internal temperature to within safe limits in case a pet or child is left in the car

Can we also get side view cameras on the main screen when we use a blinker?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · May 8, 2020
That’s harder than it sounds. Will check with team.

can you add a section in the odometer to show how many miles the car has driven on autopilot

Ok

Has the Super Heavy build been started yet?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · May 8, 2020
No, but it’s mostly the same as the ship, except for the thrust bulkhead (31 engines vs 6)

You think there would be more top notch engineers if there were less law/finance people?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · May 8, 2020
It’s not all about engineering, although that is my personal favorite. Striving to make products or provide services in excess of what you consume is the noble goal.

To be clear, I do think finance & law are important, but too many smart people in the US go into those fields. Also, too many MBAs.

So possibly 2-3x for moon?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · May 8, 2020
Yes, mostly because you can use the ship every week going to the moon instead of every two years for Mars (best case)

Starship + Super Heavy propellant mass is 4800 tons (78% O2 & 22% CH4). I think we can get propellant cost down to ~$100/ton in volume, so ~$500k/flight. With high flight rate, probably below $1.5M fully burdened cost for 150 tons to orbit or ~$10/kg.
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · May 8, 2020
Would be about 10 times that cost for payload to surface of Mars

That’s pretty much what happened. The cows weren’t sure what to do (not having encountered a rocket before), so first ran one direction, then the other.

Big Brother arguments against contact tracing apps miss the point: governments can already track mobiles (which is why criminals change them frequently) & the entities that know where you are & what you think already exist, they're called Facebook & Google quillette.com/2020/05/07/the…

A mandatory tracing app would be insane

Can we get miles and range to show up on the app and in the car?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · May 7, 2020
Probably makes sense to have a “Details” section of the app that mirrors everything in the car. Would also allow phone to be used in lieu of car screen if car screen faults for any reason.

@elonmusk @Tesla can we get the option to turn off auto-lock when you walk away from the car if you’re at home? We’re packing for a road trip and my wife gets frustrated when I’m not right next to the car and needs to put something in.
