Counter-point: Tesla is rumored to be working on a phone. That team could be very interested in Twitter for shareholder-value reasons.

Do we have any reason to believe it was Tesla’s AI engineers?



I hear they're rumored to be working on a Cybertruck as well.


I hear they're rumored to be working on a self driving as well.

How is this a counter point? How exactly doing superficial review of code they've never seen of a social network will help them with developing a phone?


Who has a better notification / messaging system at scale, that isn’t already a phone maker? I suspect the Tesla phone team would be thrilled to review that code.


> Who has a better notification / messaging system at scale

1. Apple. Facebook. TikTok. It's a somewhat simple problem that at scale is often solved by simply spinning a PubSub channel per user because you no longer care.

2. To review that code you don't just grab people to spend an afternoon doing superficial reviews of code they've never seen.
