Tesla Q2 2025 sales dropped more than 13% year-over-year

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-02-11 08:27:13

Tesla sold a total of 384,122 electric vehicles during the months of April, May, and June of this year. That's a double-digit decline compared to the same three months of last year—itself no peach of a quarter for a car company with a stratospheric valuation based on the supposition of eternal sales growth. The automaker faces a number of problems that are getting in the way of that perpetual growth. In some regions, CEO Elon Musk's right-wing politics have driven away customers in droves. Anot

Elon Musk-funded xAI is skipping Grok 3.5 and releasing Grok 4 after Independence Day in the United States, and it could be the best model from the company. Grok 3.5 was originally supposed to be a huge leap from the previous models, but xAI later made several changes to the training model, and that warranted a new version. As spotted by testers on X and confirmed independently by BleepingComputer, xAI Console, which allows developers to access the Grok API, now has references to Grok 4 availa

Today we're releasing Arch-Router ( https://huggingface.co/katanemo/Arch-Router-1.5B ), a 1.5B router model for preference-based routing, now integrated into the proxy.

Researchers Uncover Hidden Ingredients Behind AI Creativity

We were once promised self-driving cars and robot maids. Instead, we’ve seen the rise of artificial intelligence systems that can beat us in chess, analyze huge reams of text and compose sonnets. This has been one of the great surprises of the modern era: physical tasks that are easy for humans turn out to be very difficult for robots, while algorithms are increasingly able to mimic our intellect.
