Tesla CEO Elon Musk unveiled a new electric vehicle dedicated to self-driving, a possible milestone after years of false promises and blown deadlines.

Tesla Cybercab announced: Elon Musk’s robotaxi is finally here
The robotaxi is a purpose-built autonomous vehicle, lacking a steering wheel or pedals, meaning it will need approval from regulators before going into production. The design was futuristic, with doors that open upward like butterfly wings and a small cabin with only enough space for two passengers. There was no steering wheel or pedals, nor was there a plug — Musk said the vehicle charges inductively to regain power wirelessly.
Musk said that autonomous cars are expected to be 10-20 times safer than human-driven vehicles
Musk said that autonomous cars are expected to be 10-20 times safer than human-driven vehicles and could cost as low as $0.20 per mile, compared to the $1 per mile for city buses.
Tesla plans to launch fully autonomous driving in Texas and California next year, with the Cybercab production by 2026 — although he said it could be as late as 2027. Additionally, Tesla is developing the Optimus robot, which could be available for $20,000-$30,000, and is capable of performing various tasks.
“This is a very big deal,” Musk said. “It’ll save lives, a lot of lives, and prevent injuries.”
Musk revealed the prototype robotaxi at Tesla’s “We, Robot” event held at the Warner Bros. film lot in Burbank, California, with a lot of non-public roads for the demonstration. Tesla has reportedly been mapping the area in advance of the demonstration, even though the company says it doesn’t rely on high-definition maps to power its Full Self-Driving (FSD) driver-assist feature.
Musk is attempting to steer Tesla away from its core business of making and selling EVs toward one that produces robots and AI. Tesla’s market cap is equal to almost all the other global automaker’s value combined. Much of the company’s stock price is based on Musk’s yearslong promise to solve autonomy by releasing a truly revolutionary vehicle that can drive itself anywhere it wants.
Whether Tesla’s robotaxi will accomplish that steep task is anyone’s guess. Musk has a reputation for defying the odds, but AV experts have routinely questioned Tesla’s approach to the technology, especially with regard to the company’s aggressive push for Level 2 advanced driver-assist systems like Autopilot and Full Self-Driving (Supervised).
Those features, which are not autonomous and require a driver to stay vigilant at all times, can be impressive but have also been known to make critical errors. Earlier this year, a 28-year-old motorcyclist was killed by a Tesla driver allegedly using FSD. Tesla has been forced to recall both of its driver-assist systems in the face of increased government scrutiny over the company’s autonomy claims.
But Musk has a track record of coming from behind to pull off impossible victories. The Model 3 production and the early success of the Cybertruck are two recent examples of Musk defying expectations.
“Think about the cumulative time that people spend in a car”
During the event, Musk pitched the idea of autonomous cars as primarily a time-saver. “Think about the cumulative time that people spend in a car,” he said, “and the time they will get back that they can now spend on their books or watching a movie or doing work or whatever.”
Still, Tesla is lagging behind companies like Waymo and Cruise, both of which have racked up millions of miles of on-road testing with their driverless vehicles. To be sure, robotaxis have had a bumpy rollout, with numerous incidents of blocked vehicles, traffic jams, and even a handful of injuries. Federal safety regulators are probing several major players to discern whether the technology powering these vehicles is safe or should be recalled.
The families of Tesla drivers who have been killed in crashes involving Autopilot have sued the company for wrongful death. And Musk’s tenure as head of X, formerly Twitter, has alienated many of Tesla’s progressive-leaning customers, who have watched in horror as he promotes right-wing conspiracy theories on the platform.

A major call center service provider in the Middle East has lost an enormous amount of private customer data after being hacked.
Researchers from Resecurity spotted the hackers trying to sell the stolen database on the dark web, via a new thread on the infamous Breached forums, where threat actors usually share resources, buy and sell information, and communicate.
In the thread, the seller said they breached a major AI-powered cloud call center in Saudi Arabia, and accessed its management dashboard, where they found more than 10 million conversations between consumers, operators, and AI bots. These conversations, the researchers further explained, contained things like national ID documents, which the crooks can easily exfiltrate and sort, creating a powerful database of fresh, relevant information.
Selling access
“Selling: 1k enterprise customers, 1m end users (not customers, but users who use their chats on various services, like banks, airlines, etc.), 10m+ chat messages/communications, GBs of documents (sent by customers and attached when chatting with AI assistant) – will give as a bonus, access to admin panel + VPN ( engineer)”, the ad reads.
This is incredibly valuable information for threat actors, who can later use it in phishing attacks, identity theft, social engineering attacks, and other malicious activity.
“Big data and access useful (sic) for social engineering and other maneuvers, especially when you are in session with client. VPN is needed to access it under engineer,” the ad concludes.
The database is being sold for $15,000, to be paid in either bitcoin or monero.
Resecurity said that the attackers were spotted and quickly removed from the systems, so the access being sold with the database is most likely not valid any more. However, the damage from the stolen database remains.

The Tesla Cybercab has no steering wheel and no pedals
Tesla
At a glitzy event held at Warner Bros. Studios Burbank in California, Tesla CEO Elon Musk unveiled the Cybercab: a robotic, self-driving taxi. Musk said that the vehicle, which has two seats, no steering wheel and no pedals, would be available before 2027. “I think it’s going to be a glorious future,” he told the crowd on 10 October.
Meanwhile, just a few kilometres south in Los Angeles, people are already being ferried about by autonomous vehicles operated by Waymo. It seems that the future is already here…

It’s not an exaggeration to say that Warner Bros. is not happy right now. Still reeling from its expensive action prequel Furiosa disappointing at the box office over the summer, the legendary studio suffered further embarrassment when its long-awaited, $190 million follow-up to the billion-dollar-grossing 2019 hit Joker, Joker: Folie á Deux, flopped, grossing an embarrassing $37.8 million over three days. To put this in context, just over a month ago, the movie was projected to make over $100 million in its opening weekend.
What happened? Well, that’s a topic for another article, but the simple version is this: if it isn’t good, and no one is asking for it, people won’t see it. Period. Now the problem for WB is this: if few people wanted to see Joker 2 on the first weekend, what makes them think more will come on the second weekend?
That’s what may happen in the next three days as Joker: Folie á Deux is expected to drop at least 70% at the box office. That’s roughly in line with last year’s comic book flop The Marvels, which also debuted with a soft $46 million before dropping a massive 78% in its second weekend with a meager $10.1 million gross. For non-math nerds out there, that’s around $8 million to $10 million for the DC Comics sequel. Ouch.
What makes this worse is that the Joaquin Phoenix-led musical will be knocked off its first-place perch by a horror sequel that cost around $5 million to make. Terrifier 3, the latest chapter in the increasingly popular, and increasingly gory, franchise, is projected to gross at least $10 million, with an expectation that it will overperform and may hit $15 million by the end of next Sunday. That’s stunning for any film, much less one like Terrifier 3, to supplant a heavily hyped studio movie in its second weekend. That just doesn’t happen, ever, and it’s likely it will happen now.
It’s a bit poetic that a movie about a man who puts on clown makeup to mobilize an army of anti-social misfits will be defeated by a horror movie starring Art the Clown, who mainly appeals to the audience that the first Joker brought it all the way back in 2019. I just hope Terrifier 4 doesn’t have any musical numbers with Art tap-dancing on someone’s spleen.
Joker: Folie á Deux and Terrifier 3 are playing in theaters. Skip both and watch The Dark Knight again on Max instead.
More details regarding the upcoming Vivo X200 series have been confirmed. The Vivo X200 series will be the first to see brand new LPDDR5X Ultra Pro RAM, along with the new Sony LYT-818 camera sensor.
The Vivo X200 series to use world’s fastest RAM, while the ‘Pro’ models are getting a new camera sensor
This RAM was announced back in April, and it offers “over 25% improvement in power consumption and performance”. Back then, Samsung mentioned the MediaTek Dimensity 9400 chip too, as this RAM was validated for use in collaboration with that chip. Yes, LPDDR5X Ultra Pro RAM is the world’s fastest RAM for smartphones.
That will not only make the Vivo X200 and Vivo X200 Pro the first phones to ship with the MediaTek Dimensity 9400 flagship SoC, but be the first to utilize this RAM from Samsung as well.
Another detail that Vivo confirmed is the use of the new Sony LYT-818 camera sensor. Vivo said that the Vivo X200 Pro and Vivo X200 Pro Mini will end up using this camera sensor. That probably means that the Vivo X200 will use something else.
The Sony LYT-818 is a 1/1.28-inch camera sensor a successor to LYT-808
In any case, the Sony LYT-818 camera sensor is the successor to the Sony LYT-808 sensor that can be found in the OnePlus 12. This is a 1/1.28-inch sensor which has an 86dB HDR dynamic range per frame. It also comes with a 0.95e signal-to-noise ratio and real time HDR preview capability.
It’s still technically not the flagship sensor from Sony, though. The Sony LYT-900 still holds that position, it’s a 1-inch type sensor from the company. It will likely be used in the Vivo X200 Ultra next year, as it was used in the Vivo X100 Ultra too. Well, unless Sony comes up with its successor, which is a possibility.
The Vivo X200 series will become official on October 14. The three devices will launch in China, though a global launch is expected at a later date. We’re still not sure when, though.
In addition to all this, some new real-life images of the Vivo X200 have surfaced. The device is depicted in a blue color in the gallery below. As you can see, onde the sun hits it, it truly does look very interesting and eye-catching.
