Elon Musk: The lowest cost place to put AI data centers will be space ---- “The lowest cost place to put AI will be space. I think the case is a no-brainer for building AI, solar-powered AI data centers in space because, as you mentioned, it's also very cold in space. If you're in the shadow, then it's very cold in space, just 3 degrees Kelvin. So you just have your solar panels facing the Sun and then a radiator that's like pointed away from the Sun, so it has no Sun incidence and then it's just cooling. It's a very efficient cooling system. So the net effect is that the lowest cost place to put AI will be space and that'll be true within two years, maybe three, three at the latest.”

Elon Musk Elon Musk on Neuralink: “So, when I emphasized the purpose of Neuralink, like what do we, what's our goal, our goal is to solve important spine and brain problems with a seamlessly implanted device. So, you wanna have a device that you can basically put in your head and feel and look totally normal, but it solves some important problem in your brain or spine. And the reality is that almost everyone, over time, will develop brain and spine problems. These range from minor to very severe, but if you live long enough, everyone's gonna basically have some kind of neurological disorder, from memory loss to brain damage. But the thing that's important to appreciate is that an implantable device can actually solve these problems. I think a lot of people don't quite realise that, but all of your senses, your sight, hearing, feeling, pain, these are all electrical signals sent by neurons to your brain.”

Elon Musk Elon Musk about tunnels: “I'm actually quite a big fan of tunnels. Tunnels are so under-appreciated. The fundamental problem with cities is that we build cities in 3D. You've got these tall buildings with lots of people on each floor. But then, you've got roads which are 2D, so that obviously just doesn't work. You're guaranteed to have gridlock. But you can go 3D if you have tunnels. And you can have many tunnels crisscrossing each other with maybe a few meters vertical distance between them and completely get rid of traffic problems.”

Maye Musk Maye Musk on Elon Elon Musk: "He's very sweet and he's brilliant. He just has ideas that, you know, I can give you a story. So I was having breakfast with his kids...15 years ago. And, he came down from the stairs late for breakfast, and he's tired. And I said, 'Oh, you look tired.' He says, 'Well, I didn't sleep last night.' I said, 'Oh, what were you doing?' And he says, 'I designed a rocket.' And I said, 'Oh, OK. Would you like scrambled eggs?' I mean, what do you -- how do you answer? 'I designed a rocket.' And he did... It's incredible."

Elon Musk’s Elon Musk first principles algorithm: “Well, it's easy to say simplify and it's very difficult to do it. You know, I have this very basic first principles algorithm that I run kind of as a mantra, which is to first question the requirements, make the requirements less dumb. The requirements are always dumb to some degree, so you want to start off by reducing the number of requirements. And no matter how smart the person who gave you those requirements, they're still dumb to some degree. You have to start there because otherwise you could get the perfect answer to the wrong question. So try to make the question the least wrong possible. That's what question the requirements means. And then the second thing is to try to delete whatever the step is, the part, or the process step. It sounds very obvious, but people often forget to try deleting it entirely. And if you're not forced to put back at least 10% of what you delete, you're not deleting enough. And it's somewhat illogical, people often, most of the time, feel as though they've succeeded if they've not been forced to put things back in. But actually, they haven't because they've been overly conservative and have left things in there that shouldn't be. And only the third thing is to try to optimize it or simplify it. Again, these all sound, I think, very obvious when I say them, but the number of times I've made these mistakes is more than I care to remember. That's why I have this mantra. So in fact, I'd say the most common mistake of smart engineers is to optimize a thing that should not exist.”

Elon Musk: I guess I've been sort of pathologically optimistic from birth, but that's the reason all this stuff is happening anyway --- “When we were kids in school, my brother would tell me the wrong time for the bus so that I wouldn't miss the bus. And then I'd be upset with him. I like, 'Why'd you tell me the bus was going to come earlier than it was?' And he would say, 'Well, because otherwise you'd be late for the bus.' This is an actual thing that would happen. So, I guess I've been sort of pathologically optimistic from birth, but that's the reason all this stuff is happening anyway. I got to be somewhat pathologically optimistic, but I do deliver in the end. That's the important thing.” Source: Elon Musk Tesla Shareholder Meeting, June 2024

Elon Musk Elon Musk on the propaganda that the Earth is overpopulated: “First of all, I'd change the education system so that people stop being taught that we're overpopulated. This is completely false. The Earth can absolutely sustain this population; we could double or triple the population. There's a professor I was talking to at Oxford, his math says we could 10x the population without destroying the Amazon rainforest or anything terrible. So I think we should expand the human population and increase the scope and scale of consciousness so we can better understand the nature of this universe, this wonderful universe, and all the amazing things that exist. So that's one of the things I'd like, we need to stop the false propaganda that the Earth is overpopulated. I think we need to, especially with the education of women and men, is we need to stop scaring women that having a kid destroys their life. This is false. We terrify girls into saying that if you get pregnant, your life's over. This is what schools teach. And I agree, we should not have teenage pregnancies, but actually having a child is one of the most delightful, happiness-inducing things you could possibly do.”

"Elon Musk's advice to younger self: Enjoy the moment a little bit more ---- “I think there's some merit to just also not being necessarily too intense and enjoying the moment a bit more. It's like when we were developing the Falcon 1 rocket on the Kwajalein Atoll, and we had this beautiful little island that we were developing the rocket on. And not once during that entire time did I even have a drink on the beach. I'm like, well, I should have had a drink on the beach. That would have been fine."

Elon Musk's mother, Maye Musk, was a science nerd in school: “I was the science nerd at high school. I didn't really get many dates. I don't know if boys were scared of me or whatever, but I didn't have many dates, so I wouldn't date anybody who wasn't as good at math and science as I was, and no one was. Although my ex-husband was. He was better than me at math and science, and I hate to admit that, but that probably did help towards Elon being a genius.”

Elon Musk Elon Musk talks with Joe Rogan on the line between freedom and abuse of expression: Elon: Growing up when I was a kid, there was a transgender woman in South Africa. This was like where, you know, she'd get beaten up a lot because it was like back then you'd get beaten up. So, her name was Dionne, and she was a nice, kind human being and helped my mom a lot, you know, and I think that's okay, you know, that's fine. If somebody wants to make that choice as an adult, that's cool. Joe: There's a big difference between that and an intact male who wants to identify as a woman who wants to walk around the locker room with his d*ck out. Elon: Yes, exactly. So you just kind of have something which is like a, like I said, a sort of moral invulnerability or like where you can know, like even questioning them is you get attacked, you know, because obviously bad people will abuse that. Joe: Well, that's when I got thrown into this whole thing because there was a fighter who was a biological man who became transgender and was competing against women without telling them that they were a biological man. They said they didn't have to tell people because it was a medical condition. No, that's not what it is. You can't say that, and of all sports, like if someone scores more points in basketball, well, that's unfair. But if someone beats the f**k out of someone because they're lying about being a biological male, that's crazy. You're literally allowing someone to get brain damage because you want to appeal to the woke f**king crazy people. It's wrong.”

Maye Musk Maye Musk talks about Elon Musk as a teenager: “As a teenager, Elon didn't have many friends, but he read all the time, through the night. I couldn't get him up in the morning. He read a lot of science fiction. He would read through the night until he saw me getting up, and then he would go to sleep. And then, of course, I had to dress him while he was half asleep and get him to school.”

Maye Musk Maye Musk on Elon Musk: He does things to do good ---- “He doesn't do things to challenge, he does things to do good. So everything he does is to do good. For example, the Zip2, door-to-door directions. And I said, 'That's great.' Because I had big maps, I had to use them when I went anywhere. And then we did PayPal, and he said, 'You'll be able to send money by email.' And I said, 'Well, that's crazy.' And then it worked out fine. And then he went on to Tesla, electric cars. And then he found that the gas industry hated him, of course. And then the other car companies actually supported him, and then they hated him. And so every headline was negative. And now we found out that in the last few years, the government has been paying hundreds of millions of dollars to the media if they will trash Elon every day. And they do. And then once that, Reuters was paid that amount. Once they do that, then the New York Times, CNN, BBC, they can quote Reuters and trash him. And I don't know how he copes with it. It makes me furious. But the point is, people are buying Teslas. Loving it. I get upset, but he's just saying, 'You know, there are people that are not happy about electric cars.' And then, of course, when he said he's going to start doing rockets, and I thought, oh, that's cute. I mean, really? Rockets? And now it's like a rocket. Twice a week he's launching rockets. And then there's satellites that he wanted to do. He said it will save people in forests, or on top of hills, or in the middle of the ocean who are stuck. It will save their lives. And now he's supplying Cybertrucks with Starlinks at the fires in Los Angeles. So he sees the future. He sees where there's a need, and he goes against everybody else. So if you see there's somewhere that you can do better, just get out there and work on it, and you've got social media to help you.”

Elon Musk Elon Musk tells about his reflections on the meaning of life when he was 12: “I did have this existential crisis when I was around twelve about what's the meaning of life. Isn't it all pointless? Why not just commit suicide? Why exist? My motivation then was that, well, my life is finite, really a flash in the pan on a galactic timescale. But if we can expand the scope and scale of consciousness, then we are better able to figure out what questions to ask about the answer that is the universe, and maybe we can find out the meaning of life or even what the right question to ask is. Where did we come from? Where are we going? Where are the aliens? Is there new physics to discover?”
