The documentary "Elon Musk Unveiled" explores whistleblower accounts and internal controversies surrounding Tesla, offering a critical look at Musk's leadership and the company's AI ambitions. Former Tesla employees, analysts, and insiders raise concerns about safety, transparency, and the pace of innovation. It highlights Tesla's push toward autonomous systems, the Optimus robot, and its evolving AI stack - while questioning whether Musk's vision is outpacing reality.12 Nov 2025 | Synopsis
Australia is accelerating its energy transition with long-duration batteries and solar replacing coal and gas. Projects like Stanwell's 8-hour BESS, AGL's 2 GWh Tuckeroo battery, and Victoria's Meadow Creek solar-battery hybrid show scalable, cost-effective storage. These systems repurpose fossil infrastructure, stabilize the grid, and support renewables - marking a shift from extraction to clean energy deployment.12 Nov 2025 | Synopsis
This editorial suggests the 2027 Chevy Bolt or future GM electric cars could benefit from the quirky charm of it's 1970s 512E concept car, which featured Pac-Man styling and bold design choices. While the Bolt remains practical and efficient, the article argues that adding visual flair and personality - like the 512E's playful weirdness - could help it stand out in a crowded EV market and appeal to drivers seeking more than just utility.

Wastewater electrolysis offers a promising path to green hydrogen, using contaminants to boost efficiency while reducing freshwater demand. Though still at lab-scale, projected costs of $2.50–$5.00/kg are competitive with other green methods. Industrial sectors like steel, fertilizer, and chemicals will adopt first. FCEVs and aviation need purer hydrogen, limiting near-term transport use. Contaminants are managed via pre-treatment and electrochemical breakdown.

Veteran nuclear engineer Arnie Gundersen warns that restarting Michigan's Palisades Nuclear Plant could mirror the Challenger disaster, citing severe corrosion, degraded steam generator tubes, and safety oversights. He argues Holtec's dormancy missteps and political pressure risk a core meltdown. Gundersen urges the NRC to halt approval, warning that reactivating aging reactors may set a dangerous precedent for U.S. nuclear policy.

Elon Musk calls Tesla's Optimus robot an "infinite money glitch," claiming it could work nonstop, perform surgery, and help end poverty. While Optimus uses Tesla's advanced AI stack and shows real progress in mobility and dexterity, its capabilities remain far from Musk's vision. The robot is promising for industrial tasks, but autonomous surgery and global economic impact are speculative. Optimus is a prototype - not a panacea.

Xpeng's P7+ EREV blends a 49.2 kWh battery, turbo engine, and fast-charging 800V platform to deliver up to 870 miles of range. Marketed as “AI-defined,” it features camera-based Hawk Vision, an X-GPT voice assistant, and XOS 5.4 software. But it's not autonomous, and its AI claims echo existing EV tech. The car is smart, efficient, and well-designed - but the “AI-defined” label leans more on branding than breakthrough.
