Eh. It was a leading model for a few weeks, it was a real effort, but they never built a real revenue model around it. It wasn't SaaS, it wasn't for governments, it couldn't get B2C payments. Made it hard to justify the training cost to stay at the frontier.

So like the 4D Chess Trump is playing with us?

Come on, the most logical thing is that Musk overestimated the compute he needs and got lucky with the secondary usage of it.

As soon as the IPO is done and if it didn't fail, he will buy curser and try to push again if he hasn't given up on it.

He also needs some compute for the robotics stuff and for Tesla in-car entertainment and for training FSD.
