Elon Musk: “The reason I went so hardcore for Trump was because, to me, this was a fork in the road. If they had another four years, they would legalize enough illegals in the swing states to make the swing states not swing states, they would be blue states. Then they would win the House, the Senate, and the Presidency. And then they will keep importing more illegals to cement that outcome. Basically what happened in California. It would have been the end. That's why I went so hardcore for Trump. I invite people to do their research. The more they do their research, the more they will see that what I'm saying is absolutely true.”

Elon Musk: “You’d think that if you’re going to be appointed as a judge, you have to have proven that you have an excellent knowledge of the law and that you will make your decisions according to the law. That’s what we assume should be a requirement. You’ve got to know what the law is, and then you need to make decisions in accordance with the law. Not vibes. You can’t be just vibing as a judge.”

Elon Musk: "We want to have empathy that is deep, not shallow. I strongly believe we should care about humanity and we should care about the future. But we need to have empathy that is deep, not shallow Shallow empathy is caring about criminals, but deep empathy is caring about the victims of the criminals.”

Elon Musk: “Nothing any of my companies have done has been to stifle competition. In fact, we've done the opposite, At Tesla, we have open-sourced our patents. Anyone can use our patents for free. At SpaceX, we don't use patents. Once in a while, we'll file a patent just so some patent troll doesn't cause trouble. But we've done nothing anti-competitive.”

ELON MUSK: “If you're a normal human being and you speak freely, there are times when you will say things that you subsequently regret or are foolish, of course! But if you're constantly going through a filter, now you're not being real. So I think it's better to be real than to go through a filter”

Elon Musk: “You think that someone like Bill Gates who started a technology company that’s one of the biggest companies in the world, Microsoft —you think he'd be really quite, strong on the sciences, but actually, he's not strong in the sciences, He came to visit me at the Tesla Gigafactory in Austin and was telling me that it's impossible to have a long-range, semi-truck. And I was like, 'Well, but we literally have them, and you can drive them, and Pepsi is literally using them right now’ This was really surprising”

Elon Musk: “You can always learn something from a competitor, but strategically, they(legacy automakers) are just headed in the direction of the dinosaurs. They are not headed for a good place - dinosaurs are not around anymore We are certainly going a very different path. Electric and autonomous driving has been blindingly obvious to me for 20 years plus We need to do what is sensible and logical. At Tesla, we are essentially creating the future, and it’s a good future.”

Elon Musk, “I was getting demotivated and losing sleep over AI danger. I became fatalistic and thought, ‘Even if annihilation was certain, would I choose to be alive?’ I decided I would, because it’s the most interesting thing. I’ve been banging the drum the hardest for AI danger, and the biggest reason these regulations are happening is because of me.”

Elon Musk: "Satellites are just solar panels and a battery. That’s how all satellites work. With the Starlink satellite network, there’s 7,000 (now ~10K) satellites orbiting the Earth, and all they use is solar panels and a battery My prediction is, long-term, a majority of power on Earth - in fact, eventually it might be like 90% or more- will be solar panels with batteries That's my prediction. My predictions have a pretty good track record"

Elon Musk: "I thought the self-driving problem would be hard, but it was harder than I thought. It's not like I thought it would be easy, I thought it would be very hard, but it was actually way harder than even that. I mean, what it comes down to at the end of the day is to solve self-driving, you basically need to recreate what humans do to drive, which is: humans drive with optical sensors (eyes) and biological neural nets. That's how the entire road system is designed to work, So for actually for full self-driving to work, we have to recreate that in digital form."

Elon Musk: "We’re in the final stages of completion of Optimus 3, which is really going to be by far the most advanced robot in the world, nothing's even close. In fact, I haven’t even sent any demos of robots that are as good as Optimus 3, frankly. We’ll start production on Optimus 3 this summer, but very slow at first. And then probably reach high-volume production around summer next year. We’ll have Optimus 4 design complete by next year like, we will try to release a new robot design every year, an improved robot design every year."

Elon Musk: “The next step beyond Earth data centers is Earth orbital data centers. We’ll be launching SpaceX orbital data centers at the 100 to 200 gigawatt per year level — not cumulative, per year. Ultimately we see a path to maybe launching as much as a terawatt per year of compute from Earth. But if you want to go beyond a terawatt per year, you have to go to the moon. By having factories on the moon building AI satellites, and having a mass driver — something you usually only read about in science fiction but we’re going to make it real. If you do that, you can go several orders of magnitude greater, to 1,000 gigawatts or more per year, and ultimately maybe even a few percent of the sun’s energy. It’s difficult to imagine what an intelligence of that scale would think about, but it’s going to be incredibly exciting.”

Elon Musk: “My mind often feels like a very wild storm. I have a fountain of ideas. I have more ideas than I can possibly execute, so I have no shortage of ideas. Innovation is not the problem, execution is the problem. I’ve got an entire design for an electric supersonic vertical takeoff jet, but I just can’t do that as well. I’ve had that for 10 years. I think to some degree I was born this way, and then it was amplified by a difficult childhood. I can remember, even in the happy moments when I was a kid, that it feels like a rage of forces in my mind, constantly. Now this productively manifests itself in technology and building things for the most part. I think on balance the output has been very productive.”

Elon Musk: “If you want to recruit talented and driven people, you must state the mission, the problem to solve, and show you’re willing to pour blood, sweat, and tears into it with a convincing reason why it matters. Motivation comes from three things: enjoying the work itself, fair financial rewards, and knowing the work will make a real difference in the world.”

Elon Musk:”I am the reason OpenAI exists, it wouldn't exist without me. I came up with the name. The name 'OpenAI' refers to open source. So the intent was: what's the opposite of Google? It would be an open-source nonprofit. Because Google is closed-source, for-profit.”
