Tesla had faced a couple of hurdles to offering the latest level of autonomous driving, which it calls supervised Full Self-Driving. It has needed approval from Chinese regulators, who questioned whether the company took adequate precautions to protect data. And it has needed access to extremely high-resolution maps across the country.

The timing of Mr. Musk’s trip was significant. He arrived in China days after he identified self-driving technology and artificial intelligence as critical to Tesla’s future. Tesla is not just a car company, Mr. Musk told investors last week, saying, “We should be thought of as an A.I. robotics company.”

Five seconds. That's all it takes for workers at the Tokyo's Tsukiji fish market to turn a wildly struggling sea bream into seafood bound for market.
Go Maeda, a 20-year-old worker at fishery products wholesale company Yamafu Suisan, has a remarkable skill. Despite his young age, he handles up to 1,000 sea breams a day.
After inserting the tip of a knife into a fish near its gill, he thrusts again to make an incision near the tail, from where he puffs air into the body before dropping the fish into icy water.
The technique is called "shinkei nuki" (nerve- pulling). It is used by fishery products wholesalers to delay the process of rigor mortis and keep fish fresh.
