Tesla Engineer Says Grok Tuned the Cybercab's Rearview Camera View

📍 TeslaNorth

Yun-Ta Tsai, senior staff engineer at Tesla Super Intelligence, Tesla's AI team, said on X that the human camera view tuning for the Cybercab is optimized with Grok. According to his post, Grok let him program the fixed-function hardware directly, a step that usually requires checking the chip's datasheet. Sawyer Merritt wrote that riders can now open the rear camera view during a ride, and mentioned a possible quiet mode that darkens the screen, though he described it as 'sounds like'. Tesla has not published release notes for either feature.

🔎 Why it matters: A senior engineer at Tesla Super Intelligence says on X that Grok tuned the Cybercab camera view and programmed fixed-function hardware without checking the datasheet. The claim comes from the engineer's own post, and Tesla has not published release notes that back it up.
📈 Upside: Cybercab riders can now open the rear camera view during the ride, one of the first rider requests since rides began in Austin.
📉 Risk: The quiet mode that would darken the entire Cybercab screen is mentioned only by Sawyer Merritt with 'sounds like', and Tesla has not published release notes.
