Unitree is better than Optimus.
Qwen et al is better than Grok.
BYD is better than Tesla.

I don't know about the other comparisons mentioned, but Hotz himself said comma is/has always been about 2 years behind Tesla.
Are you aware of the recent issues with BYD and other Chinese EV brands? Entire dealerships have gone up in flames from dangerous vehicles. Not lone incidents but tens of dealerships at least, in just this month.
Tesla cars may have flaws but there is no way a BYD can be compared to them even on the basics. And Tesla’s software is simply way better and makes it clear that it was designed by a competent tech company not an old car company. Other brands aren’t on that level yet.
No, but I'd like to know more.

Wow! Here's one: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c2544ndvkepo
( Although no brand is given and it's a " possibly " on being caused by an EV )
Can you provide links to 19 more such incidents this month?
Cheers.

translation seems to be mostly accurate, but i can't be arsed into researching the locations listed.
but yes, tens of dealerships per month seems like a bit of an exaggeration
Certainly an extraordinary claim requiring evidence :-)

Oops.
Last October, it was claimed that an electric or hybrid vehicle had started a huge blaze at Luton Airport’s car park, which destroyed 1,400 cars and much of the building structure.
However, an investigation later revealed that the fire was started accidentally by a diesel vehicle.
I heard on social media that a witch turned someone into a newt.
This type of snark isn’t in the spirit of HN. If you’re actually intellectually curious, go search social media for yourself. But spare us the mocking replies and false equivalence.
And perhaps try to read about the role of government censorship on this and similar issues.
