There is a Korean news video of the recent LK99 talk by Sukbae Lee. There seems be video of more the LK99 experiments. UPDATE: Link to a good transcript/translation of the full 45 minute Seokbae Lee talk. Automated Translation of the Korean Transcript: There are errors in the Korean language transcript and more errors in …
Commercial heat pump makers have developed next generation cold climate heat pumps. Next-generation cold-climate heat pumps—a key clean energy technology that can potentially save households $500 a year or more on their utility bills while also slashing harmful carbon emissions. The DOE Challenge specifies that prototypes deliver 100% heating capacity without the use of auxiliary …
Microsoft Quantum team used AI to identify around 500,000 stable materials in the space of a few days. New battery material came out of a collaboration using Microsoft’s Azure Quantum Elements to winnow 32 million potential inorganic materials to 18 promising candidates that could be used in battery development in just 80 hours. This work …
Elon will give a Tesla company talk after the 10K. The talk will probably be the first week of February. The most impactful things for the future of will be the AI (Dojo, FSD, Robotaxi and Teslabot ramps). However, there is too much uncertainty for this to get an accurate prediction. Also, forecasting these items …
A 2024 phase 1 NASA Advanced Innovations concept study will look at thin film isoptope nuclear rockets. This will enable faster probes with years of thrust capability. The years of thrust using nuclear isotopes will provide energy for course changes beyond Saturn and even in interstellar space far from the solar energy of the sun. …
The big winners of the last 200 years of the Industrial and Information revolution were ones who created previously unimagined scale to win. We went from many monks and scribes hand writing manuscripts to the printing press and eventually to the reel to reel newspaper presses. The circulation of daily weekday newspapers in the United …
On a X-Space discussion Elon Musk had with Peter Diamandis, Elon revealed that AI compute is increasing by 10X every six months and that there will be gigawatt power for clusters in 2025. The planned Kuwait cluster will use 700,000 Nvidia B-100. Each Nvidia B-100 will be about 60-100 times the power of an A-100. …
Nano-engineered oxides are very important for the development of next-generation catalysts and microelectronics. Recently, metal exsolution from oxides has emerged as a promising nano-structuring tool to fabricate nanoparticle-decorated oxides. However, controlling the size, density, composition, and location of exsolved nanoparticles remains a challenge, limiting the ultimate performance achievable by these nanostructures. The following nanoparticle production …
Tesla beat q4 deliveries with 484k. 1% over analysts who were at 480k. The other cars category is S, X, Semi and cybertruck. This has almost 5k more sold than produced. This means they sold inventory on the high end. This will mean about $100 million more for net income in Q4. This helps margin …
The Tesla 4680 production ramp has taken about two years longer than Tesla first planned. Most of the analysis has been based upon monthly or quarterly percentage increases in production. This has been while the technical problems were being solved. The 4680 technical problems should be completely solved by mid-2024. The second Texas line was …
Perseus Materials is reinventing composites manufacturing as it is currently known. Perseus Materials wants to build bigger, faster, anywhere. They are developing and applying a proprietary composite fabrication processes to the manufacturing of oversize load-bearing structures for buildings, bridges, wind turbines, and other applications in infrastructure and energy. They will bring to market a new …
