U.S. auto safety regulators closed its investigation into Tesla’s remote parking feature, known as “Actually Smart Summon,” after finding crashes were rare, at low speed, and not severe. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said in its update on Friday that its closing of the investigation does not constitute a finding that a safety-related defect does not exist, and said it can reopen it. The remote parking feature, which was released via a software update in September 2024, allows owners to use their Tesla app to direct the vehicle to drive itself to them at low speeds, using only the…

Four astronauts aboard NASA’s Artemis II test flight around the Moon made history at 12:56 p.m. CDT on Monday, traveling 248,655 miles from Earth, surpassing the record for human spaceflight’s farthest distance previously set by the Apollo 13 mission in 1970.

Google on Monday quietly released an offline-first dictation app called “Google AI Edge Eloquent” on iOS to take on the likes of Wispr Flow, SuperWhisper, Willow, and others. The app is free to download, and once its Gemma-based automatic speech recognition (ASR) models are downloaded, you can start dictating on your phone. In the app, you can see the live transcription, and when you hit pause, the app automatically filters out filler words like “um” and “ah” and polishes the text. Below the transcript are options like “Key points”, “Formal”, “Short”, and “Long” to transform the text. Image Credit: Screenshot…

But, if SpaceX moves forward with its highly anticipated public listing that’s filled the headlines in the last 24 hours, it could fundamentally reshape what that “exit” actually means. And that would be not just for founders, but for the entire tech and startup ecosystem. According to multiple reports, SpaceX has confidentially filed for an IPO that could value the company at up to $1.75 trillion, potentially making it the largest public…
