I hope they're not hoping for mass adoption with an attitude like that. Not exactly inspiring confidence in the longevity and maintainability.
Every engineering company releases stuff like this. It’s not meant to change the world. It’s marketing to recruit other engineers who would find that problem interesting.
I'm not so sure about that.. FRom the repo :
> Tesla also announced joining the Ultra Ethernet Consortium (UEC) to share this protocol and work to standardize a new high-speed/low-latency fabric (be that TTPoE or otherwise) for AI/ML/Datacenters
Also it's a protocol, personally I will only use a protocol that's fully spec'd. It's a pain sometimes to have consensus among all contributors but it's valuable.

That's how things usually get done right ?
This is currently the state of much modern documentation from huge tech companies.
..which also does not inspire confidence.
Why does it have to be perfectly documented in a public github? Are all other car companies "properly" publically documenting things in github?
Does it inspire more confidence in VW's software stack if they don't share it? Is VW's confidential stack some big competitive advantage? I've used a VW ID electric vehicle. I did not come away that impressed.
This is the way it goes here in HN for anything related to Musk.
No, spec bad. Protocol unknown. Poof

Nobody mentioned Musk ... Except you.
