For video, pick Premium or higher. HOW TO USE - Open Imagine in the Grok app or on the web; update the app when a new version drops. - Flow: prompt or upload, edit (Precise Edit, segments, resize), then Make Video, then upscale. - Music: add a generated song to your video, edit it, or write your own track prompt. - Video needs the Premium tier or higher of The X Subscription; Plus covers images only.

TESLA FSD Updated 2026-10-22 NEW TODAY - FSD V14.3.13 is rolling out to owners now, and V15 is expected around the end of this year or early next year. - Slovakia approved FSD (Supervised), making it the 9th EU country after the Netherlands, Czechia, Belgium, Denmark, Lithuania, Estonia, Croatia and Slovenia. - Tesla gave 25-minute FSD demo rides at the Paris Motor Show, one of only two automakers offering autonomous demos there. FSD is still awaiting approval in France. - Families say FSD is keeping parents in their 80s and 90s independent, from a 90-year-old buying a Model Y to an 83-year-old who uses it for nearly all his driving.

STARSHIP Updated 2026-10-22 374 posts (+9 today) NEW TODAY - Flight 15 aims for the first full catch: Elon says next month's flight will try to catch both Super Heavy and the Starship upper stage with the tower arms. A ship catch at the pad would be a first for any orbital rocket. - Ship 40 is home: after Flight 13's Indian Ocean splashdown and the trip back by sea, it stands in a Megabay at Starbase, the first Starship ever back at its launch site after flight. SpaceX will study its flown heat shield, Raptors and avionics. - NASA's Moon schedule lists five Starship firsts this quarter, one done. Still due: first V3 booster catch, first ship catch, first Florida launch and first reused V3 booster. Next quarter: first ship-to-ship propellant transfer. First crewed landing is set for Artemis IV in early 2028. - Starbase is targeting up to 456 Starship launches a year. At about 100 t per V3 launch, that's roughly 45,600 t a year, more than 20 times SpaceX's 2025 total to orbit (tester math). - Starbase Louisiana breaks ground in 2027, with a first Starship launch planned for 2029, possibly on V4. - Two years since the first tower catch on Oct 13, 2024. Since then, two more booster catches and a caught booster has flown again.

GROK Updated 2026-10-22 NEW TODAY - Grok 4.8 is expected soon at 2.5T and should be a noticeable improvement (tester expectation, not an official ship). - Testers expect Grok 4.8 within about 2 weeks: the first 2.5T model, the first trained on the new C++ software stack, and the first Grok under the SpaceXSI branding (anticipation, not official). - A concept for Grok project memory: keep notes with sources, link them to projects and decisions, and save approved corrections so the next draft uses them without re-explaining (an animated prototype, not a working Grok agent).

SPACEX - Official (Gwynne Shotwell): SpaceX expects the Starship Flight 15 FAA license to include return-to-launch-site tower catches for both stages; she called the Louisiana spaceport "the second Louisiana purchase." - Testers: Q3 call recap reports $14.6B revenue (up 161%) and $4.4B net income, Starship headed for weekly launches in 2027, Starlink Mobile past 22M users, 13 GW compute targeted by end of 2027, and an end-2027 ARR target of $500B to $1T. - Testers: with Q3 profit of $4.40B, SpaceX needs about $0.41B in Q4 to make its trailing four quarters positive for S&P 500 eligibility; the poster expects inclusion around June 2027 (opinion). - Testers: SpaceXSI leased a 902,720 sq ft Class A warehouse (Southaven Park 55, Building One) in Southaven, Mississippi, about 20 minutes from the Colossus data centers; use not yet known. - Testers: SpaceX launched Starfall, its own mass-produced reentry capsule (up to 1,000 kg) for returning experiments and in-orbit manufacturing to Earth. - Testers: SpaceX has launched roughly 80% of the ~2,400 tonnes of payload sent to orbit worldwide in 2026. - Testers: Dragon's abort engines have fired in only two tests, a 2015 pad abort and a January 2020 in-flight abort that deliberately sacrificed a Falcon 9. - Testers: SpaceX solves uneven launch demand by flying its own revenue-generating satellites, first Starlink on Falcon 9 and now common-chassis satellites on Starship. - Pre-earnings (Oct 17 to 20): top retail questions (HLS hardware, Tesla merger, orbital refueling, Starbase Louisiana); five numbers to watch, EPS comparison with Tesla and AI-vs-Starlink revenue estimate; live earnings show; $983B revenue target.

ELON MUSK Updated 2026-10-22 Sources: your Elon Musk bookmark folder (1680 posts). Not Elon Musk Algorithm. NEW TODAY - Elon (via Testers): SpaceX is pointing the team behind about 90% of all mass to orbit at building AI compute; he says power, cooling and infrastructure, not chips, are now the limit on deploying superintelligence, and called it "the New York Yankees playing in Little League." - Elon (via Testers): SpaceX will try to catch both the Super Heavy booster and the Starship ship on Flight 15; if it works, it would be the first fully recovered orbital launch vehicle. - Elon (SpaceX Q3 2026 earnings call, via Testers): Terafab aims for a first working test chip, probably SRAM, at the Research Fab in Austin around May or June 2027, with volume production at the main Gibbons Creek site around Q3 or Q4 2028. He called these "insanely fast timeframes" and thanked ASML and other suppliers. - Elon (via Testers): his so-called wealth is mostly a percentage ownership in SpaceX and Tesla that he keeps for voting control; it will be taxed heavily, and a few generations from now his descendants would have a tiny fraction of it. - Testers: Elon's view of philanthropy as "reality of goodness over perception of goodness," with Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink and The Boring Company framed as engineering a better future (from his TED talk with Chris Anderson), plus a recap of his 2021 exchange with the UN World Food Programme over a $6B hunger plan. - Testers: Oct 15 recap covering the next-generation Tesla Roadster unveiling near Waco, Falcon 9's USSF-481 launch from Vandenberg, and the Dragon CRS-35 ISS docking. - Testers: Argentina's President Javier Milei called Elon the tech GOAT and a real-life Iron Man.

Updated 2026-10-22 (America/New_York).

MULTIPLANET CIVILIZATION — 783 unique (+11 today) NASA's HLS update at IAC 2026: Artemis III is still targeted no earlier than Q3 2027 as a low Earth orbit rehearsal, with Orion docking to a Starship HLS test article and no Moon landing. SpaceX's lunar steps run from a first Cape flight (no earlier than Dec 10) to a propellant transfer demo in Q1 2027 and an uncrewed lunar landing demo in Q4 2027. The first crewed landing is still aimed at Artemis IV in early 2028. Five Starship firsts are due this quarter with one done: the first V3 booster catch, first ship catch, first Florida launch and first reused V3 booster are still to come. NASA's Jared Isaacman is set to brief on speeding up the return to the Moon. Starbase Louisiana is set to break ground in 2027, with a first Starship launch planned for 2029, possibly on Starship V4. Starbase itself is targeting up to 456 launches a year, roughly 45,600 tonnes to orbit, more than 20 times SpaceX's 2025 total. Ship 40 is back home at Starbase as the first Starship to return to its launch site after flight, and Flight 15 next month will try to catch both the booster and the ship. Not Starship-only. Settlement / Moon / Mars / NASA / economy / energy / probes.

Ming highlights Elon Musk with Walter Isaacson on The Builders: if AI and robots outdo us, what gives life meaning? Musk admits he struggles with it, but growing vegetables and cooking for friends is a hopeful start.

Fireside Alpha shares Elon Musk on Optimus: Tesla plans 10,000 to 20,000 bots doing self-play at an 'Optimus Academy.' No car-style fleet for data, so like a toddler, they learn 'by playing.'

Sawyer Merritt shares Elon Musk on Optimus: early production has started and most of the 1 million unit/year Fremont line is installed. He believes it'll be the biggest product on Earth, but says to temper expectations for about a year.

Teslarati shares Ferrari CEO Benedetto Vigna on the Tesla Roadster: 'We have to keep dreaming,' innovating and daring 'even in an old world.' His score: '10 for technology and 10 for communication.'

Outer Space Today on NASA's lunar timeline: SpaceX is targeting an uncrewed Starship Moon landing in Q4 2027, and NASA is aiming for its first crewed Artemis landing in 2028. The road back to the Moon is taking shape.

Herbert Ong shares Lars Moravy: 'We're trying to get Cybercabs to customers by the end of this year, 2026.' Customer cars could join the robotaxi fleet around Q2 2027, a goal worth watching.

X Freeze's recap of Tesla's Q3 2026 update covers a lot of ground: cars, FSD, Cybercab, Optimus, Semi, energy storage and chips, plus the 10 millionth Tesla built. A lot happening at once.

DogeDesigner shares Elon Musk on Tesla's Q3 call: 'The biggest driver for demand is full self-driving.' In Musk's view, there's really no competitor for FSD in any car you can buy today.
