what UPS coppice a little bit of time for people to get in here remember you guys like the last mapping ones so I can say what's up yeah yeah I think you have to be careful because I think if this loses the track then it's not gonna work but as long as we move it slowly and see the or features over here yeah those are the futures being streamed from the device we're computing them on the Qualcomm DSP y'all never never go to bed never sleep are me did you sleep you know who doesn't sleep now Ford sleeps man but we don't sleep and that's why we're gonna win so you can see them live streaming the video over here so you guys can see me holding the periscope with you that is meta so you can see me I'm holding you guys right you say yeah probably I mean this is the same technology that's in Apple's AR kit it's really very small here we have an actual 3d map so this is the same stuff that I was using to map the roads except here it's a map of my room so if I tilt it up you can see it tilt up okay I'll make landscape sorry I locked the rotation on my phone who doesn't lock the rotation on that phone yeah but so this technology is coming to all your yawns very soon and then combined with a great handle for the places where our map does not have good coverage this is going to give us ten centimeters yeah new chair it's squeaky I stole it I stole from someone else yeah you want to come grease the chair it's a little off it's terrible I'm sorry guys sure it's terrible I check out the comb pedal here's the comb federal development station I'm very upset with Eddie that he printed this collar pedal in black because everybody knows that comma pedals are light blue a little LED blinking here tonight look at that look so this is a common pedal yeah I've been working on so that firmer is pretty much done notice that we're using all the Collard products this here is a comedy bug there's we're using it just exploded giraffe you know what else we gonna use I mean there's taken apart kama petal good morning but ya know what's really exciting is the mapping is the mapping and uh yes here's oh I guess I need to show you guys what was actually doing the mapping here's an e on just sitting on my desk again plugged into a comedy bug yeah so now when I rotate this see it map in real time over here yeah right the mapping is exciting so I mean I showed you guys in the last late-night sundae mapping periscope about how this actually works on the roads orab slim doesn't really work on a road but if you combine it if you combine these features let's see the features over here if you combine the features it's me and orb if you combine the features with all the other stuff yeah so what we found with the radar is the problem with the radars is that they have internal Kalman filters and if we're putting that measurement into our Calvin filter you can't double Kalman filter like that unless we knew the standard deviation from the raters which we don't um obviously shame shame on these radar people you know every time like Tesla autopilot accidents where it hits a stop car it's really it's the radar like you can do a much better job with this you know radars killed a few people it's true common radar I don't know so you want you want to talk about um the visual spectrum and why lidar is stupid I kind of think actively emitting photons on any spectrum is kind of stupid what do I need to act the photons for look at what I have working right and like this isn't like this demo is not I built this demo on a signal see for you guys this one over on the left here I just piped the frames into uh into a modified version of orb slam but yeah you can see that attracted this isn't using behind you or anything we're working on the night is scary well the night work at night as well look it's me on the periscope filming you it's like a triangle yeah I've learned how to play chess you know it's like yeah yeah just last night I was reading about triangulating your queen in the endgame triangulating yeah it's gonna be functioning um dude like honestly do we build things we don't ship this is all gonna ship with with the big gray Panda update and then we're gonna start making precision maps and we're gonna start real oka lysing you and your precision maps so some of y'all are gonna be part of the vakama commuter Club the car needs to download what deta yeah needs to download map data I'm still be downloading map data from our servers like I've said our maps are gonna be open source the stuff is starting to work really well if you're an investor in a mapping company get out now get out yeah wait no I point you over there and I look over here get out now that's right don't be a mapping company when can you join the community club yeah I heard about the Iowa in the free RTK I don't know sounds like I have to yeah sure yes seriously I don't know man I shorted mobile I once lost money I'm over shorting anything on the stock market I only long clicked up which isn't doing so long right now but don't worry crypto will be back always long crypto but yeah we can we can look I'm sitting here by my by my three monitors like that to me mom there's a pretty nice right oh yeah we were going over we were going over some companies one of my slogans is convenience drives success maybe there are the three kinds of companies there's the uber - the person company which is like way mo cruising uber no mom the mom is not 4k they're 1080 you don't really want for came all of us let me do everything slow so we stand a 4-man for your map data I mean it's honestly just gonna be coordinates in ecef ecef is Earth Center earth fixed so these are these are reimagining companies and then they make cars better companies those are the two companies honestly really aren't even our competitors our competitors are just just the status quo who wants to keep cars the same or make cars worse you know I've grown a new respect for mobile over the years as I see we talked about in the last test go yeah that was that was the demo I have prepared for you guys uh oh yeah if you're with a mapping company get out I mean here's why right so what a lot of these mapping companies are doing is they are spending a lot of money to build one map and to try to maintain it right so their overhead for mapping is is very high our overhead for mapping is actually negative we're providing value to the users who map for us in the form of open pilot right so you get open pilot for free and we get data to make maps I think that's a pretty good deal and you also get that data obviously to make your drives better you're going to see immediate improvement once you start mapping an area so if you are part of a mapping company who is now spending thousands maybe millions of dollars compatible cars are on our github at github.com slash comma AI slash open pilot it's also I think it's linked from our main site if you're at a mapping company and you're trying to make a map once if you're trying to spend a ton of money on lidar cars and then you're going to rent seek yeah yeah I SEOs I SEOs are all on hold have you heard about the new securities laws you guys been seeing that the New York Times and stuff you know I like that idea you guys know I like that idea but um no I mean look what we're clearly providing value to the users right not only to get not only get the dash cam to get shiver but like open pilot Oh pile it's a pretty good deal um we're not gonna map your garage we're gonna try to only map things that we deem are on a roads I don't want a map in your garage I don't want to know contrarily Metroid's VA knows that they're gonna be on our on our open source map and it's going to be contributed to and healed by all of our cars just driving a cross at all right and in like pokeymon mapping I mean here's the thing right this is a Ark it but for the world so if you think about it like that right you think about a are kitten a our kid can like do my one room this is a our kit for the world you want to put a real like who stole what's though who stole the a are cute guys actually doing something similar doing whose company called Napper AI I'm all the Erica people left Apple they were startup anyway who basically built that stuff is that a heatmap originated from my pandas car kid yeah mapper a I um so that's a better idea I mean you have like mapper today I and your little five Traver I mean you know it just they misunderstand what the hard problem is [Music] yeah so we're gonna start building we're gonna start building this map out you're gonna be able to get to it at a map Maps dot comma dot ai once it's done is there Pokemon or no should we put Pokemon on our map I mean it's yeah we think we can aar the world right I mean why don't we sell the advertising in the AR right toy sell advertising is that the kind of person I am what am I gonna give more details on comic commuters so maps are first first we're gonna launch the very early beta of comma map I mean everybody who has a gray Panda and neon will be able to contribute to the common map if you have two gray pandas your stuff will show up on the map instantly if you have only one gray panda it will take longer um and that's because we need to wait for for data to download from the UH from the US government and we know that they're not very fast which car did he get and he got his own car I don't know what car you got I think we might go buy a Ford Fusion tomorrow you guys know I was talking about that earlier on the slack but yeah so um if you if you are friends with someone in a mapping company you know tell them the apocalypse is coming if if if you how will I make you rich buy buy a Ford Fusion I'll make me poor around I'll give money to Ford I don't feel great about that but you know hey everyone else is using Ford fusions and you know what they say most of the time when everyone else is doing something by a semi I'm not doing Sammy's common team is 12 people apologies what ghosts driving yeah yeah fusion yeah no it turbo all those s got turbo I got a turbo in my Ford Fusion what the finance was a great man we're killing it shop down calm down oh yeah are we shield for the merch oh we show for the merchants hoodie you can't even get bro you can't even get this shit if you've got a hoodie you got in early um ml guys still there well you know ml is ml ml is a tough tough tough field guys still here yeah but you know don't expect new models I know some of your L expect the new models um you know when we come out with a new model you're gonna look at it and you're gonna be like holy shit that's like a year ahead of anything Tesla's on autopilot we're gonna crush him are we gonna crush him because we're finally doing away with the original Senate comma a I which is lanes lanes are very bad and we don't have lanes in our new model under model won't have lanes our new model will just be like go there and go there is exactly what you want from model sandbagging the new models are gonna be great but the new models are still a long ways away so yes the ml team is still here but you know ml takes a long time aha so there's there's that we have a bunch of things to do before the new models and we don't really talk about our ml strategy because it is secret but you know it's not secret our mapping strategy our mapping strategy is 100% public for open source maps and it basically looks like this we're running a super modified version let's not even orb slam anymore on the back end we're just running gto which is the optimizer orb slam uses to build maps then once we have maps will stream them back to our devices so you can localize in them and then once we have maps well when you have a map see that's the real way to do more torque safely right you don't you don't want swerving when you're on a highway oh but if you know places where you can need torque you can limit the torque based on where you are in the map and this is a great safe way to roll out higher torques so we can we can talk about that if you don't have a platform ie Tesla car itself Tech's less sticks its customers with its own property you will launch on what car brow have you followed Khamenei I do you have a Honda or Toyota go right now to come at AI github back on slash comedy I slash open pilot and you'll find that there's actually some free software out there that can drive your Honda's and Toyota so what car are we gonna launch on the Honda's and the Toyotas and maybe also of the tasarov I see some great progress with that GM port we'd love to see it upstream get you paid out that money you know we're thinking about buying a Ford tomorrow that's gonna be Honda Tesla GM Ford lexus lexus is already supported we already support the lexus RS that's right acura Honda's are just Acuras Toyota's are just lexus lexus they're just Toyota's Acuras just Honda anymore car hacking going on right now we are always doing car hacking you guys want to see a pre CC you I'll show you guys a Prius steering controller what pothole detection well yeah who likes potholes man no not infinity check it out they're really cute actually he this is the ECU the Toyota uses for all the steering um so what you'll find if you look at this is the guy over here is where the power comes in this one here is where the motor goes out and notice how many wires it has it has two so it looks like Toyota's using like just a brushed motor um which is a little sketchy I mean the reason to brush motor is a little sketchy is because if you have that latch up that's kind of a playful torque to the motor which isn't great especially also this thing oh it does have a relay okay alright so it does have a lockout relay here you can see this relay I think that that is locking out the fats to prevent that latch up so that's a good thing um so there's a bit of safety in here which is good but you know brushless motors are inherently more safe than brushed motors because if you get fetch feta you don't you get like weird behavior but you're not going to get you know slamming the steering wheel to the left or to the right so then you see right here this port is where you plug in the torque sensor and this port here is where you plug in the power and the can and these are the little cute Toyota steering controllers that look like they're in most of the new Toyota so it's nice I don't know what chips actually in here this one looks like a FET driver this one is the microcontroller running the code so the Prius has parking assist I don't know why this is only in the Prius I don't know why this isn't in the other cars I'm so the Prius you can actually put a lot of torque on the steering wheel it's enough torque to do South Park but I don't think it's the steering column that's different but the Prius does have other weird qualities so maybe there are some differences in the steering column I didn't build this house I didn't hang the chandeliers I do like another kind of nice right yeah Prius ECU here's another Prius CCO this is a hybrid controller Prius ECU this is the one that I bricked well this isn't the one that I bricked this is the spare now in case I break it again but I own brick tit so it's all good yeah the ref will just have ultrasonic it doesn't have active Park Assist it can't like spin the wheel am I still into iDevice hacking I couldn't care less i device hacking had its time back when phones were bad in 2007 phones were bad you needed to hack them 2008 phones were bad you needed to hack them you know with bad in 2018 cars that's why we had cars gotta make cars good how did i brick it I did I forgot it I missed a checksum all the Toyota code when you add it all together needs to add to a a 5/5 I don't believe in passions I think that that's a stupid way to look at it people are always like find your passion in life that is stupid advice um just do whatever the hell you want alright work is the only thing I've ever really found satisfying I mean what else is satisfying sitting around spoke a weed I like smoking weed but you know what you can smoke weed and work that's great janna works the only thing I've ever found really satisfying in a long time so yeah I did this this is what I do women weed and working how about Nissan's any port guy smock ass Oh check out my Omaha check out my omaha sweatpants brevin gave these to me when i visited omaha um smock ass i don't know what that shit means smock ass i like yeah check out the quality sign that's too much you see you know no I don't really cook the works don't know I just I just made a mistake am i high now no what did i do today I had I had I had a mate' oh and I have one of these these things really do get me wired though no I'm not high we could have this much energy if I was hide these things man I did have one of these today they kind of do get me wired I do have more respect for mobilize yeah mobilize not as bad um yo maybe we'll go smoke weed after this maybe maybe after the scope he goes away well uh smoke we don't play some chess right that sounds like something to do um yeah I do it more respect from oh boy you know I still don't really have respect for sorry guys this is our Zuke's poster this is why we don't build cars yeah sorry zukes I don't believe in his future this is a big house you live alone right now yeah I'm the only one living here oh this is the office right like this isn't this is my house this is the company I office yes a nice poster right check out these there's this one this this is made by a micro intern check out our h-1b application forms it's really hard to give visas for people what now I'm never gonna say superglue bro but yeah so for those who aren't here at the beginning of the periscope looks like we got a few more people check out the mapping set up so this is just our I have an e on here on my desk that I'm using and now that crashed yeah it's not I like it's not really orb slam it doesn't real oka lies because what do you need to realize for when you have GPS what are our micro interns doing we have two micro interns coming this week one is interviewing for the infrastructure position and one is interviewing for the JavaScript position to work on Cabana and shiver we have two interns coming this summer which we're very excited about we have a great Android hacker coming in to improve stability and quality of knee OS really get neo s open sourced and we have a phenomenal ml intern I got this guy on the phone and he just you know he knew yeah he had similar ideas on how to actually solve this problem no we don't do remote work only in very rare circumstances on machine learning interns yet we have a phenomenal machine learning intern coming this summer I'm very excited interns sleep in the basement no you guys want to see what I could take you at an intern sleep we do have we do have intern housing would you offer intern housing a comment I of course right because I always wish that like like other things offered intern housing what kind of company do I run we r comma AI and we're gonna win self-driving cars that's what kind of company we run a winning company that's right no but like seriously you guys see what we're doing we're very open what kind of questions do I ask for ml during the interview well you got it you got an interview to find out if I tell you my questions and other people will watch the periscope and then all of the answers and then it won't be a good test you can make good lemonade listen to gucci mane song lemonade that's what i have to say to that how do you apply give me a job at Khamenei I um take more money from VCS and hire faster we have a lot of money our problems not money um the problem so like there's this myth and this is one of my contrarian positions that more people solve a problem faster I don't necessarily think that that's true yeah we can help you with visas we would definitely help with visas I don't necessarily think that like just throwing more people at a problem will solve faster I think that if you want to problem-solve faster it's really important how you set up like management structures and the way that people work together because management and I'll say the word collaboration is really really hard alright let's go up to enter in housing I'll show you guys in turn housing scobie's yeah no it is about quality it's really all about quality we hire honestly with the average IQ income AI as it's got to be insane so alright alright alright we're going into housing welcome to intern housing so we have a bunk bed here so we can fit two interns I'm gonna sit down on the intern bed here a little desk for interns to do work at that light doesn't work let's go plug the wagon oh there's no plug oh there it is there we go alright scobie's hope that was fun to join me yeah right is this intern housing umm you live right where your work so you commute it's pretty good I mean it's a few room in San Francisco guys what am i doing these days car hacking I've been on the car hacking team this week we are gonna do a pop-up shop I'm really excited about the pop-up shop but don't tell the regulators cuz we're just showing up man I don't mean like the regulator's like dish to end stuff we're cool with them now I mean the regulator's like whoever regulates pop-up shops because I heard that Logan Paul who am NOT a fan of anymore fuck Logan Paul that's too harsh - Logan Paul I think Logan Paul will get his act back together but I have a fan of pewdiepies to go out there and watch our PewDiePie Oh dev kits right yeah no no we sell deaf kids no it's not that it's just like I'm sure you need like a permit to set up a pop-up shop and you know me I'm gonna show up on a corner with like cart maybe we'll like open the back of the rav4 automatically and we will you know just start selling alright where do I see coming in five years I think we're gonna win self-driving cars um I mean okay look guys look obviously you can look at me and it could be like well I'm delusional right like how could how could we possibly win you know we have I say we have a lot of money we do have a lot of money but not compared to you know these people have poured like billions into it but I don't think that matters I think what matters in the future is like avoiding regressions and shipping if you manage to build and you manage to ship something a little bit better and a little bit better and a little bit better yeah Pass Elon is looking easier and easier where is he launch cross-country Drive I thought that's where he would be by now right I thought that that was gonna get done I'm a little bit surprised that hasn't been like I say I'm nice delusional than I were two years ago that's probably true I'm surprised it hasn't been done so yeah I mean if e1 doesn't like this year is still ahead but by the end of this year I think we will be able to do that cross-country Drive are we doing stock options to employees absolutely absolutely if you're trying to start up early stage of course stock options good eventually - um no it's not that success no community right like the community is a great asset I do love you guys I love a comma are me proud to be a member of the comma army um the community the community is great and like what it gives us is is feedback um if we're shipping bullshit you guys will tell us right if Zook spends their days doing bullshit who tells them right so by actually shipping and by closing that feedback loop it gives us a really cool advantage that I mean who else has that advantage like Tesla alright now I can talk about where Tesla stopped and why there haven't been autopilot updates lately I think what Tesla's done over the last year is built something that we've been building from day one and that's really good infrastructure to gather all the videos from the car because you know Tesla just didn't really have the kind of training data they needed yeah yeah I feel good about the current sensor suite it's not just a single camera we have another sensor that we've shipped obviously you guys know what it is who knows what the other sensor is the sensor I promised it for a while I will do that self-driving awareness to again next year and we'll have less disengagement that's I think that like that stuff's kind of gimmicky too like rice it for one GPS exactly um so we shipped the gray panda which is another sensor in conjunction with the open-source comma AI map yeah so you're gonna get that great sensor as well if you haven't if you have great panda and an internet connection you get a second sensor after the single camera no there's obviously some stuff you can't do with a single camera and we know that but we do still feel good about it till the end of the year there's a whole lot of the problem to solve on a single camera and you guys know we're cellphone company right first year the absolute first year of karma I we built the comma zero I showed it to Bloomberg the second year we built the comma neo then we called it the well we built two comma one and we called it the Neo when we shipped last year we built the comma E on so next year we'll build the comma three right yes we're cell phone company we're looking to ship new hardware every year just like any cell phone company will continue hopefully to support the old hardware for one year after that but no real promises on that but we'll try our best on the you know it's quite a good platform there's a lot of stuff that's still unused on that so like I said that thing that I showed you the vision thing was running on the DSP which is another completely unused part of the chip in your D on the depth map using camera are working on that no no no no the commentaries nothing fun but we are like a phone company we're going to ship new hardware every year why no love to BMW because it uses flex write anything that uses Flex ray is difficult no not a different smartphone no I think I think that this is going to be the last smartphone , product though the EON will be said ordered for quite a long time I mean of course there's gonna be an update you know I'm not gonna ever lie and say you know that's it that's it the Aeons gonna solve software in cars it's not right you need more hardware than that obviously but I think by the end of the year and maybe with a demo that we have coming up in a few months you're gonna be like wait did you really put that in the yawn yeah we put in the EON right um no cross country is cross country is it who cares I care about people's commutes I care about making people's computes have less disengagement making people's can be what's nicer do I think new cars will ship with some extra security people ask me that question a lot I always say Apple couldn't stop me and Sony couldn't stop me what hope to Honda and Toyota have when are we gonna run out of 1+3 never never never never never actually no I shouldn't say that what do I'll show you guys this document we have stacks and stacks and stacks of eons I should get a stock room we have a lot right now but yeah we'll probably run out middle of this year so we'll have to figure out how to get more yeah we're gonna develop our own hardware platform ah because I mean we have the EON is a hardware platform all right oh we put a phone inside of it yeah we put phone inside we're who cares what was the other question there's another question I forget what it was can you make self-driving bikes no that means you want it to pedal you want electric bike you want to steer for you you want the balance for you you know who did that though Anthony Levin to ask you right hype for auger yeah of course I'm alive trogir man I think my reps gonna fall in price but I'm still hyped for it um Snapdragon Hardware no probably not you know who will use it do you think ways actually makes people more stressed I don't think so I think it makes it less stress thank you virtually Chris thank you good to see you again yeah no we just went over we just went over mapping and yeah we talked some shit about some companies not really I think I choose a pretty positive periscope trying to be more positive positivity you guys I love positivity this is a nice fruit when interns move out I'll probably move in here and then my rooms in this house too and can move out and put more people in there tensorflow on-device we do that already what do you think that model was trained with the one that shipped envisioned a stencil off I can't even guys I'm trying to be positive on this periscope I get even room to her no no no this is the only room you guys get to see today what did I love prior to mapping we love mapping and mapping the big thing this year I'm the one from the GPUs man is Kama HQ moving to LA now I like to talk about that right you guys know team ten you know Jake Paul's thing we're gonna be team eleven we're gonna be twice as lit team eleven it's logarithmic deal eleven TV 11 bro no comma army for life make sure to hit that like and subscribe button it's no like bought on periscope if you can hit that make sure to smash that like a subscribe button move to the east coast now that moment I love these coasts but here's what they say about your company your company's valuation is 5x higher in San Francisco yeah we're mapping bro what happened take the survey will you start sending the e on with the 1 + 5 now nope yawns we'll all be one plus three T's and yeah that's what yawns will be you do a lot with that phone um when moon guys so how many eyes growth has been um well you know what they say about exponential it looks linear at the beginning but I think that these nuts right I've voted for Deez Nuts I tried to but you know I just out of the race yeah 2016 Deez Nuts no but I think I think the virality of commenting eyes a little bit different from the virality of okay alright come on man what kind of a name is that invited Bob black I love blocking people am i dating uh no No you know you just got a dating like I don't even know what that means anymore man like dating really confusing what you gotta like I don't know I don't know what it means in the modern to know in the modern tinder era what does dating mean right that's something to think about like it's not well we're gonna get married and have kids and move in together I don't know am i okay yeah I'm okay I'm good I'm good I trip to Thailand I went to Thailand I found I went to some of those places this is kind of a little shady right like you see like the kind of guys you show up at those things I'm way the name comma come from so if you want to have a successful company it's got to be two syllables and it's got to be between four and nine letters did I meet ladyboys there are yeah you see some lady voice that is real Thailand stuff who hurt you don't cry do I look sad what's sad super-shady you gonna tweet when pop-up shop happens uh yeah we'll tweet when the pop-up shot happens what does dating me guys you guys got you guys got me psyched out man Oh name was coming from um nobody understand what I'm saying right like it's oh I found one gray panda I found one gray Panda when I was cleaning the basement we of course will periscope the pop-up shop uh no like there was this storm and when I showed you guys this door and I thought about I thought about going there papa periscope oh yeah no I did that's the last girl I dated I did I did I dated a girl uh two years ago before before the company no it's it's I'm not sure if the world's changing her arm changing see that's something you always have to think about who's changing is you or is it the world you don't know cuz there's only one world there's only one you these are the things I think about the world I mean the world is changing right but you see that's the thing like can you really know that I think we're both changing right there's a there's a real friends you know you're good thing you abandon I know this place is the same and I'm just changing right and it's about going back to like your you know your suburban home that you grew up in and you know the place is the same and you've changed is the bounty mechanism for supporting more cars a long-term plan bounty is one of the strategies using the Deep Web no he's to do drugs I don't really do drugs that much anymore so what am i buying on the Deep Web I smoke weed you know Slee Galia the California uh y know South by this year they didn't invite me to speak um I probably would have went it's kind of fun to use a thing right the first year I gave this and you can see The Verge article about it the first year I gave this speech where it's like I'm gonna hand capitalism who thought leadership right and then the second year I'm like okay wait number like this is actually what we're doing um you smoke weed and are able to code and run a startup I don't smoke I don't like wake up in the morning and I'm like smoke weed right um why don't you use eye glasses why do I need eyeglasses have perfect vision Bros anymore car hacking tools for the community coming out cabanas gonna get improved what phone am i using you guys know what phone I'm using what phone am i using those very much check is pretty sexy right um no in trucking in trucking way most strategy makes sense I don't actually use tinder tinder is a terrible terrible dating app shipper is ship is a better app to news it's tackle um let's play there's plenty of women if you know where to lock you know but they so got yelled at me for not being politically correct on my periscopes last time he sent me a message on twitter is like be politically correct bro and here's what I said back to him like if we live in a world where people are too afraid to speak their mind then I don't know what kind of world we live in but that's not an excuse to be a sexist or racist don't do that that's that's bad beautify I think we talked before crying I'm not gay sometimes I wish I wasn't be pretty cool I think being gay in San Francisco be a pretty cool experience um this is this is personally guests a real personal periscope telling you deep thoughts you know it's more personal than like Apple or Amazon Amazon Amazon because Apple has already dominated their markets Amazon actually still has a lot more to grow I have investors in both though I do believe that both will grow but I do think Amazon will beat Apple to be the next trillion dollar company um I also think that Apple is I mean look are they trillion topples not trillion um Tim Cook is great at running things and that's the kind of person he is but like will Apple be the leader in the next thing I don't know I kind of don't see it whereas Amazon you know you still have Bezos they're right jobs Ian Apple would be an Amazon any day cookie and Apple maybe not we did use AWS until we ran out of the free money and now we use our free money on Azure I'm not touching anything Sony you know guys have a permanent injunction and allowed to hack any Sony products um I couldn't care less about the Sony products either what I sell to Jeff here's the thing about selling right if I thought some company could help us could being bought by that company could help us achieve kamas mission faster which is winning self-driving cars then I would be good with that um but I mean you gotta you got a win right okay I won't tell anyone you're good bro um test your software hardware outside the USA we ship worldwide bro we don't test we ship we simply test a little bit we test them in the basement of the testing closet can we trade in a white pen of a cheaper gray pen and a bro cave Jeep oh my god integrating with a large clubs better than selling for a chunk of change yeah maybe what's winning for comma I mean wouldn't it be nice if we could sell a box that you put no those refunds within 30 days if you don't like the product if you just want next year's product I mean you can't like buy the iPhone 7 and then the iPhone comes out you're like Apple could I trade in my iphone 7iphone is not a good example I think that's actually true am i a good programmer I mean you can read my code I'll go my github github.com such geo hot um I guess I don't know be doing that recent up there Kiera's probably the last big thing I wrote so you can read my code and you can judge for yourself whether you think of a good program or not okay better hacker than programmer yeah I do I submit connect I bought the dip I bought the dip I thought big connect might rebound and I lost that eat so let's just say that's one you don't never see again oh my Amazon Prime now order will arrive soon sweet about some hard drives her computer we had a micro intern coming tonight don't get to get him a computer uh Toyota firmware hack soon TM yeah PCI max soon why pandas so expensive panda not expected a pen a not expensive only $99 cheap umm what language do i code in Python mostly um I'm pretty good at C as well no I bought SSDs of course I want access to is what is the hard drives these it's just an SSD I'm pretty good at sea I can read C++ you asked me to code anything and C++ I'm a lot worse at it I realize I don't know any modern JavaScript anymore um you know I know like jQuery or JavaScript so that's true I spent like two weeks learning rust um yeah I built some things takes a long time uh I made this one thing in go and realized absolutely hated go I like rust I like the idea of rust just winning mean always staying open source and not staying to a single car company winning means shipping um I don't really open source is nice I think open source has a lot of strategic advantages that are really underappreciated how old am I'm 28 if pandas expensive comply dad's a lidar Java programmer program I have a wait like do people not like think I'm a programmer I mean obviously I'm a programmer right UI mods it doesn't really work that well uh-oh yeah you can bet it knob you can buy a knockoff you can buy a cheap China oh btw dunno then like try to use it for like driving your car and I like won't work bro like this fine I don't know like you got to ask yourself do you buy nice things if you buy cheap knockoff things you can buy cheap knockoff things don't work well some cheap knockoff things are good to buy it when someone makes an actually good knockoff panda for $30 tell everybody to buy it no that's the thing like what do you think I am some kind of like business CEO I could certainly code am I like a great like programmer like Jeff Dean I don't think so uh neither publishing papers is kind of overrated what I consider common level three by December probably not I think level three is more like a year and a half away um to actually be level three I think that we need I mean okay I think you get the kind of reliability you need for level three you're gonna need both a really good ml model and you're gonna need maps and with those two combined I think you can get to level three does open pilot work well in Europe try it yeah I think so not not know they drivin left Germany right now I kind of work see today I'm gonna left - I think Carmack is better than Dean maybe a cart Carmack Carmack's a good programmer as well yeah he's you know he wrote fine he's kind of doing small like stuff to us you know writing there I think if you are can yawn get to level three probably not maybe depending on the car lane change part of level three it doesn't have to be I'm so level three basically just means looking for the best programmers guys I think I have a set of skills I think are very good systems thinker like it is Elon Musk a good programmer I don't know coming not that good um I think I could probably go better than him but you know it's not like programming is a it's it's a it's a almost a rote skill to some point like systems architecting is where it's really at but if you can't like prove yourself programming which I think Ilan did and I think I did when I was younger if you want to see if you want to see some good code of mine I wrote this I wrote this exploit I wrote a the Chromebook exploit and Google made it open source you can find like geo hot zip and he can read an exploit of mine and it's it's quite well liked commented and document it and stuff like I'm handing this code you know I want to impress it right that's what I kind of still respected Google it's sad we're good to go but that's that's a topic for another day that's definitely topic for another day it is sad that Google uh I think they've lost away Chromebook Expo yeah just come back x-play I want $150,000 for it back in the day back in uh 2014 I don't talk about my past much can you use it for open Network attacks knowledge I handed it to Google I I responsible disclosed it right not that I think responsible disclosure matters but um I will responsibly disclose an exploit if you'll pay me $150,000 now I haven't done a CTF in a while and this CTF says good at them no I didn't reserve a model three I don't think Tesla wants people buying their cars what do I do now you said an intern housing in periscope what about Google would that Laffy Taffy's I wish I could scroll back in the chat I can't yo guys you want to hear something that's actually like shitty Mars Chris I got seven years in jail like that's not even like a joke because super shitty for for not losing anybody any money like I I don't want a billion dollars I think we talked about that last time I don't know what I would do with a lot of money I don't really want money I don't care I want to build better stuff are you ADHD what does that mean why did I leave project zero um project zero I was an intern there I don't want to do that as a full-time career free scrolly I agree I agree I you know I was with some people we protested outside the Twitter building when he got banned from Twitter uh have I drank alcohol not tonight have I drank alcohol with my life yes um you could go skiing every day with the billion dollars yeah you guys don't understand like I'm already rich I go skiing every day already it's not what I want to do with my life um are you OCD I don't know what these things mean bro I did go to CMU and my OCD and my ADHD you mean some like quack who went to like like that darah you know school they studied how to like when the marketing reps come and offer you a free trip to Hawaii for marketing wa tughda say yes that's what they learn in med school baby I don't know yeah chance again weird net worth I never very low maintenance leak on the floor it's just not that kind of stuff doesn't matter to me I'm comfortable enough that I could live off the interest of what I have are you soap my son of a bitch no don't dairy dare insult my mother like that um battery died I think my battery's alive everyone's keen on figures huh you know I was younger ah what neural thing yeah I've been here two years and we got three more now let's go you guys being rich is a scam I've always felt that you know actually if you haven't seen check out my raps soundcloud.com slapped Tom Cruise that's Tom Cruise with two zeros inspired by James Dean with two E's damn I'm feeling okay it's really getting late I'm shilling for my rap account we saw 66 people will go to an hour in here what are my thoughts about Facebook's platform Facebook's a media company but actually I have seen some sort of like self awareness this year which I like from Facebook and from Mark Zuckerberg I don't know I mean maybe he doesn't know what it means to make the world more open and connected and he really is trying yeah the Kolar more track is pretty good I did put a lot of effort into that new tracks oh man I did oh all right all right all right all right you want to go get my laptop I'll do a rap track I got this is this is something most I was I was writing right because of those work enough I'm not gonna release it on a on soundcloud so I figure I can just get my laptop and perform a few guys you know like the quavo style rap yeah if you care about self-driving cars this is nothing to do with self-driving cars this is this is just getting late it is late though I'm waiting for my Amazon Prime look it's still running how stable so stable all right chop it up no one lets the other rap track although I got here no no it's not it's not self-driving [Applause] what Amazon Prime package yeah I'm his longtime delivers late we love Amazon Prime all right I have it I have like I have this song according to Roger no we're really gonna do the rap I don't think we're really gonna do the rap should we really do the rap here's the beat I got if it doesn't come I'm going to be very upset with Amazon look we got like a quavo be right that I his we got yo I just I download these beats off the internet and I'm a terrible I'm like a YouTube rapper II know this is not where my talents lie we're gonna put in video in every car maybe I'm flipping a gremlin - spatula down in Atlanta with Georgia's the Capitol I made a pinky from my pan and I'll bring back a spatula poured and flap it up time to go merry-go-round people don't marry the ground the dirt is so this isn't sleeping around I hear this because people will sleep with you now Seraphim brother don't wrap it up look what I'm making to stack it up you can all watch it go put some ice cream on that bitch and some fruit like bananas and outta there got a few jets in my haters back to the kitchen in the break you know I got so much money wondering what they will say now I find them and ask if they want a pancake and they eat but they all look so big now know which is good but they gotta admit that y'all can see just be getting paid now looks like I got the way now you can tuck it with a pole now y'all be my pancake I'm the king of the playground alright that's very shkreli ish play with that like quavo shit right I can't want to go sit in the room boy yeah thanks thanks Bros I'm sorry me alright alright I think on that note we will leave it now I gotta finish the track right maybe maybe I'll finish the track I have a lot of Blake unwritten wraps that are kind of like crappy only wait you see on Tom Cruise's Ali scrappy which is really not saying much man I wanna be a rapper when I grow up but you know what I got better things to do you know what you know I realized today and we'll leave it on this note the sky's funny man no but here's what we're gonna leave off with today but I'm not a rapper alright um know what we gonna leave off with today is guys I'm down to do this you know for the last like last year I was always like okay how do you put the board away right you play the game of chess you know it's great about chess whether you win or lose you put the board away board goes away you shake hands good game we can all appreciate a chess a little bit more right but companies don't end that way companies either last forever or die and it sucks it sucks and but you know what like if I want to live forever then why shouldn't I make the company last forever this is this is this is what I want to do and this is um I wanna look forever I gotta make the company last forever I don't know guys like uh when's the next big product release it's all coming in time right we're a lot like a cell phone company we're gonna come out with new hardware every year um just print two organs I mean no it's just about it's about the future I want to live in right and I think that there's way too much just so much negativity in the world that I really and I'm just not I don't feel negative anymore I think that we can build a great world I think that things are really exciting I think that crypto is really exciting I think that self-driving cars are really exciting I think that AI is really exciting I think that these things are gonna I'm not gonna say like like people talk about people talk about like empathy and stuff and then you read like there's a book like again so much has it oh my oh my friends been delivered whoa yo let's go get it boys oh I love packages man you know that's what they say never never grow up and never stop being excited when your packages arrive let's go let's go see what I got yeah boy look at that look at that oh by the way I don't think you guys can really see it but it's beautiful out here I don't think you can see it all but it's really beautiful um packages like Christmas presents exactly right when you're an adult Christmas is all about like that person from the family's coming right but that's Christmas I got to see people I got to interact I got to be polite Wow Christmas I love my family guess you got a lovely folder let's see what I got okay right here this isn't that exciting I have a three pack of HDMI cables I got him a brand new hard drive Samsung SSD 580 Evo it was on sale and I also got us every system Amazon does trihard I also got another ebo you see this whole area we're throwing these couches away we're gonna we're gonna put some desks there this is H not hard drive it is an SSD it's SS these are hard drives but what is it okay it's hard man like it's hard hard drive PC but I don't guys honestly I play Age of Empires Super Smash Brothers 64 and Jess these are the games I play I'm old I'm old but no I'm the note we were gonna leave it on is you guys we're on an amazing journey where they are and I don't know I mean they always say look for me yeah smash of the night play I go 64 I got a second floor I got a CRT TV it's never that good at Starcraft I was good when it first came out and then everybody like just memorized build order isn't like I don't play this game anymore yeah that's it's exciting and from an outside perspective you look and you're like okay I mean look I got a seer I like like like how can uh how can you win right how can how can how can calm a win but then again from the outside perspective like who's shipping nobody we're you know I drove I drove autopilot ooh and a model 3 I mean it's some parts it's better than open pilots some parts it's worse it's a mat
