Reason we hustled so much to get Autopilot V1 out was that someone driving non-Autopilot Tesla fell asleep, crashed & killed cyclist (Tesla driver was uninjured). Driver nonetheless sued us saying new car smell made him fall asleep (sigh). Judge didn’t agree.
"What was the reason behind the urgency in developing Autopilot V1 for Tesla?"

Indeed. Grid fin designs clearly work, but do they maximize payload? Good chance that they do not. Something with much more drag to reduce terminal velocity & so reduce landing propellant might have better performance. Not sure. Potential future optimization.
What are some potential future optimizations for maximizing payload when it comes to grid fin designs?

That’s arguably a security issue, but allowing companies to use other payment options, especially for in-app purchases would be fair. As soon as they allowed that, they would have to lower their fees. As for the cost of reviewing apps for security, a fixed fee makes sense.

Normally, competitive pressure would force Apple to lower fees, but Apple & Android have a duopoly on phones. When interface familiarity is taken into account, it’s basically a monopoly. The effective 30% sales tax Apple charges is hidden from users or there would be an outcry.

Good idea. They are not easy to move over roads, which is why the factory is close to the launch site, but we will support a museum that wants a prototype if they take care of transport.
Is it possible to move the prototype rockets to a museum if they are interested in showcasing it?

Most people have no idea Starship exists or how large this beast is! Body diameter (9m or 30 ft) is bigger than a 747 or A380. Starship thrust & mass are more than double Saturn V moon rocket. Making life multiplanetary means massive rockets. Got to be done.
Wow, I had no idea Starship was so enormous! How does it compare to other well-known heavy-duty vehicles like a 747 or A380? And is it correct that Starship's capabilities are even greater than that of the Saturn V moon rocket? I'm fascinated by SpaceX's goal of making life multiplanetary!

More of a pathfinder test. Actual payload bay door dimensions are still under debate. Volume is ~1000 cubic meters. Roomy …
Can you give me some information about the payload bay door dimensions?

The feeling is mutual. But I can’t emphasize enough that we work with an amazing team. The credit is theirs.

If Tesla is able to succeed with imported vehicles, then a factory in India is quite likely.
Do you think Tesla will consider opening a factory in India?

We want to do so, but import duties are the highest in the world by far of any large country! Moreover, clean energy vehicles are treated the same as diesel or petrol, which does not seem entirely consistent with the climate goals of India.
I heard that India has high import duties, does that apply to clean energy vehicles as well?

Good review & fair critique. In general with interfaces, all input is error. With each software update, the car’s intuition will get better. You will need to press buttons less & less & it will know when to ignore accidental button presses.
I appreciate that the car's interface requires less button pressing with each software update. Will it also learn to ignore accidental button presses?

But, much more important, is that this *design* is capable of full & rapid reusability. Long way to go from design to making it actually fully & rapidly reusable with high payload, but at least success is *one* of the possible outcomes haha.
So, how capable is this design of being fully and rapidly reusable?

Dry electrode is a key piece (one of many pieces) of the puzzle for lowering cost of lithium batteries. That said, it has required an *immense* amount of engineering to take Maxwell’s proof-of-concept to high-quality, volume production & we’re still not quite done.
How significant is the role of dry electrodes in reducing the cost of lithium batteries?

Ironic indeed, as I was at one point going to do my PhD at Stanford on high energy density capacitors for use in electric vehicles. But lithium-ion has it covered. Even with no advances in lithium-ion technology, it’s possible to transition Earth to sustainable energy.

We created our own connector, as there was no standard back then & Tesla was only maker of long range electric cars. It’s one fairly slim connector for both low & high power charging. That said, we’re making our Supercharger network open to other EVs later this year.
Why did you create your own charger connector instead of using a standard one?
