Tesla Diner opens in LA: Elon Musk says more planned in major cities around the world
's electric vehicle company Tesla recently opened a
retro-futuristic diner
in Los Angeles, California. The new outlet, located on Santa Monica Boulevard, combines old-school American diner aesthetics with Tesla's high-tech features. Earlier this month, Musk shared an X (formerly Twitter) post where he wrote: 'I just had dinner at the retro-futuristic @Tesla diner and Supercharger. Team did great work making it one of the coolest spots in LA!'. In a latest, the tech billionaire hinted at global expansion of the outlet.
Elon Musk shared a video of the diner on X. Reposting the video, he said 'If our retro-futuristic diner turns out well, which I think it will, @Tesla will establish these in major cities around the world, as well as at Supercharger sites on long distance routes. An island of good food, good vibes & entertainment, all while Supercharging!'
Tesla Diner idea dates back to 2018
Elon Musk first announced plans for such a diner back in 2018. At the time, he posted: 'Gonna put an old school drive-in, roller skates and rock restaurant at one of the new
Tesla Supercharger
locations in LA.' Construction for the LA diner reportedly began in late 2023.
The Tesla Diner reportedly offers classic comfort food such as burgers, hot dogs, wings, and hand-spun milkshakes—served in boxes designed to look like the Cybertruck, the company's all-electric pickup. The location also includes a full drive-in movie experience with 45-foot outdoor screens. Visitors can listen to the movie audio through their Tesla car's built-in sound system.
Customers driving Tesla vehicles can order food directly through their in-car screens while their cars are being charged. The new diner features 80 Superchargers, allowing EV users to charge their cars while enjoying
food and entertainment
.
Tesla robot Optimus spotted serving popcorn at Diner
Inside the diner, Tesla's humanoid robot Optimus was seen serving popcorn, as shared in a video by content creator Jacklyn Dallas. Dallas, who reports regularly on technology updates, called the place a 'paradise for tech lovers.'
The two-storey building includes a rooftop seating area and aims to provide a blend of food, entertainment, and convenience in a single stop.

Trumps AI plan prioritizes deregulation to boost US dominance
President Donald Trump unveiled an aggressive, low-regulation strategy on Wednesday to boost big tech's race to stay ahead of China on artificial intelligence and cement US dominance in the fast-expanding field. Trump's 25-page "America's AI Action Plan" outlines three aims: accelerating innovation, building infrastructure, and leading internationally on AI. The administration frames AI advancement as critical to maintaining economic and military supremacy. Environmental consequences are sidelined in the planning document. "America is the country that started the AI race, and as president of the United States, I'm here today to declare that America is going to win it," Trump told an AI event in Washington. "Winning this competition will be a test of our capacities unlike anything since the dawn of the space age," he said, before signing several executive orders to give components of the strategy additional legal weight. In its collection of more than 90 government proposals, Trump's plan calls for sweeping deregulation, with the administration promising to "remove red tape and onerous regulation" that could hinder private sector AI development. In his wide-ranging speech, Trump insisted that "winning the AI race will demand a new spirit of patriotism and national loyalty in Silicon Valley and beyond." Trump complained that for too long "many of our largest tech companies have reaped the blessings of American freedom while building their factories in China, hiring workers in India and slashing profits in Ireland." The plan also asked federal agencies to find ways to legally stop US states from implementing their own AI regulations and threatened to rescind federal aid to states that did so. "We have to have a single federal standard, not 50 different states, regulating this industry of the future," Trump said. The American Civil Liberties Union warned this would thwart "initiatives to uphold civil rights and shield communities from biased AI systems in areas like employment, education, health care, and policing." The Trump action plan also calls for AI systems to be "free from ideological bias" and designed to pursue objective truth rather than what the administration calls "social engineering agendas," such as diversity and inclusion. This criterion would apply to AI companies wanting to do business with the US government. Trump also called for AI development to be broadly immune from copyright claims currently the subject of legal battles saying it was a "common sense" approach. "You can't be expected to have a successful AI program when every single article, book, or anything else that you've read or studied, you're supposed to pay for," he said. A major focus in the plan involves building AI infrastructure, including streamlined permitting for data centers and energy facilities that would overlook environmental concerns to build as swiftly as possible. The administration, which rejects international science showing a growing climate crisis, proposes creating new environmental review exemptions for data center construction and expanding access to federal lands for AI infrastructure development. Trump also called for the swift construction of coal and nuclear plants to help provide the energy needed to power the data centers. The strategy also calls for efforts to "counter Chinese influence in international governance bodies" and strengthen export controls on advanced AI computing technology. At the same time, the strategy calls on the government to champion US technology in conquering overseas markets, a priority that was spelled out in an executive order. These plans will help "ensure America sets the technological gold standard worldwide, and that the world continues to run on American technology," US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a statement. Critics of the plan said the policies were a gift to US tech giants that were scaling back their goals for zero carbon emissions in order to meet the acute computing needs for AI. "Trump's plan reads like a twisted Gilded Age playbook that rewards the rich while punishing everyday Americans and the environment," said Jean Su of the Center for Biological Diversity.

Trisha Paytas gives birth just as Black Sabbath's Ozzy Osbourne dies. Coincidence? The internet thinks not!
Trisha Paytas is officially a mom of three, and her latest baby's name has everyone doing a double-take. The YouTuber, podcast host, and internet provocateur welcomed her third child with husband Moses Hacmon on July 12, 2025. And the name? Aquaman Moses Paytas-Hacmon. Trisha Paytas with her newborn son; Ozzy Osbourne Naturally, the reveal came in peak Trisha fashion, via a teaser for her Just Trish podcast. 'After a surprising and traumatic birth, baby number three is here!' the episode description read. 'It's been months of speculation, but now Trisha and Moses are FINALLY ready to reveal the name of their little boy.' She also posted about the birth on all her socials, as one naturally does. '💙AQUAMAN MOSES PAYTAS-HACMON💙 Born 07.12.25 @ 12:40 am 🙏,' read the Instagram announcement caption. Their previous two children — Malibu Barbie and Elvis — already gave the world plenty to talk about. And naming your son after a superhero is not really new…so why is the internet freaking out? Well, it's because of the Trisha Paytas Baby Theory. What is the Trisha Paytas Baby Theory? The theory began in September 2022, when Queen Elizabeth II died at age 96. Just before the official announcement, Paytas tweeted that she had gone into labour with her first child, Malibu Barbie. The timing was uncanny. Twitter spiraled. Many (jokingly, but also... not?) declared that the Queen had reincarnated into Trisha's baby. Elvis, baby number two, arrived with far less celestial fanfare. But when Paytas revealed she was expecting a third, the theory was instantly revived. This time, TikTok and Twitter kept a close watch on the elderly and famous. When Pope Francis passed away in April 2025, some corners of the internet were convinced his soul was en route to the Paytas-Hacmon household. Then came Donald Trump. News of the US president's chronic venous insufficiency in mid-2025 launched yet another round of memes speculating that Trisha was preparing to give birth to Trump 2.0. Trisha herself has never been one to lean away from controversy and truly believes in her own 'divine womb'. 'I don't know how my womb is carrying all these souls,' she said on Just Trish. Unfortunately for TikTok theorists, baby Aquaman arrived just as Black Sabbath's Ozzy Osbourne passed away. Not quite the Trump moment they were waiting for…but still pretty suspicious. What do netizens have to say? Once something happens three times, it's not a coincidence and even the internet thinks so. 'Every time someone dies Trisha Paytas gives birth. It's not coincidental anymore,' read one comment on X. Another claimed, 'Fighting for my life trying to explain the Trisha paytas baby theory to my not chronically online coworkers.' A comment on Reddit read, 'First the queen, then the pope, and now Ozzy...' Another hilariously asked, 'Is she going to have more children or are celebrities safe for now?' One more said, 'She is allowed to have children?' A particularly hilarious comment was, 'Ozzy, that you?' What now? Paytas has hinted that this might be her final pregnancy, making baby Aquaman a kind of superhero swan song. But if the internet has taught us anything, it's that a new Trisha era is always just around the corner. Let's just hope that no one has to die for it.
