Elon Musk explains why you should never charge an electric car to 100% The last 20% is not a small ask. Elon: "getting from 80 to 100, it takes about as much time as getting from 0 to 80" It runs backwards from how people fuel a car. Elon: "it's a little counterintuitive, because for a gasoline car you would fill it up" Inside the battery, ions are looking for somewhere to go. Elon: "the lithium ions are trying to find a parking space" Elon: "when the parking lot's empty, they can zip right in there and find a spot, it's easy" Elon: "as the parking lot gets full, just like trying to find a parking space at a mall, you have to hunt around for a spot" So on a road trip the rule flips. Elon: "you actually want to charge to about 80%, and then run it down all the way to 10%, or less"

Elon Musk reveals what happens when a rocket launch needs approval from Fish and Wildlife Elon: "Nonetheless, we were forced to kidnap a seal, strap it to a board, put headphones on the seal and play sonic boom sounds to it to see if it would be distressed." Elon: "This is an actual thing that happened. This is actually real. I have pictures." Before the seal, there was a shark. Elon: "One of the things that was a bit of a challenge at one point is that they were worried about our rocket hitting a shark." He asked for the data to calculate the odds. They refused, in case shark hunters got hold of it. Elon: "Then they said, well, there's another part of Fish and Wildlife that can do this analysis. I'm like, well, why don't you give them the data? They don't, we don't trust them. Like, excuse me, but they're literally in your department." Then a second agency raised whales. Elon: "If our rocket does hit a whale, which is extremely unlikely beyond all belief, that whale has some seriously bad luck. It's the least lucky whale ever." The seal test was for launches out of Vandenberg, where the seal population has been rising for years. Elon: "So if anything, rocket booms are an aphrodisiac based on the evidence." Elon: "The amazing part is how calm the seal was. Because if I was a seal, I'd be like, this is the end. They're definitely gonna eat me." Elon: "Its seal buddies are never gonna believe him that he got strapped to a board and they put headphones on his ears." They did it twice. Elon: "I don't think the public is quite aware of the madness that goes on."

Elon Musk breaks down how he found the only piece of American coastline SpaceX could launch from There was no site search team. Elon: "I was just literally looking at satellite images" Orbit is a sideways problem, not an upward one. Elon: "the gravity at the altitude of the space station is almost the same as it is on the ground" Elon: "it's actually moving around the Earth at 17,000 miles an hour" Which decides the geography for you. Elon: "you want to launch eastward, so that you can take advantage of Earth's rotation to get to orbit" That rules out almost everything. Elon: "almost really all of Florida, except for Cape Canaveral, is wall to wall houses on the beach" Elon: "one of the few spots that wasn't occupied was the area just adjacent to the border with Mexico" There was a reason nobody wanted it. Elon: "there was at one point a development that was going to take place, but then a hurricane came and destroyed the entire place, and in fact rearranged the land, so some of the plots were underwater" And leaving the country was never an option. Elon: "it needed to be US land, because rocket technology is an advanced weapons technology"

Jordan Peterson read Stephen Fry's famous answer about God back to him, then asked him what holding it actually costs: Fry once said that if he ever met God, he would ask about bone cancer in children. Peterson brings it up, but not to attack it. He thinks the argument works. Peterson: "Ivan wins the argument, but Alyosha is the better person." Fry: "I don't believe there is such a being, but if there were, I would have many bones to pick with him." Then Peterson turns it. The argument is powerful. The problem is where it takes you. Peterson: "there's a direction that goes in that's nihilistic and resentful and vengeful and angry, and all understandable, but it doesn't look to me like there's anything good in it." He says he tested it on himself. Peterson: "I've had my reasons to be resentful and angry, especially recently, and because I'm suffering a lot of pain." Peterson: "there was nothing in that that didn't make it worse, and that therefore that must be wrong, even though it's justifiable." Fry's answer is that he was never angry to begin with. Fry: "I'm not really resentful and angry about the fact that there's evil in the world. I'm sorrowful very often." Fry: "most people are so good, so anxious to be good, are idiotically good." Fry: "every time I go off to sleep I think, how did I screw up today, how can I be better tomorrow." Then he challenges Peterson's phrase, a higher mode of being. Fry: "show me someone who has a higher mode of existence than I do." Peterson: "that higher mode of existence is what your conscience tortures you for not attaining." Peterson: "you cannot create your own values. The values impose themselves on you independent of your will." His evidence isn't scripture. It's juvenile rats. Peterson: "if the big rat doesn't let the little rat win 30 percent of the time, the little rat will stop inviting him to play." Reciprocity, before anyone believed anything.

Elon Musk has a kill switch for AI Tucker Carlson asks him about people who say the only way to stop advanced AI is to blow up the buildings it runs in. Elon Musk says you would not have to. Musk: "The really heavy duty intelligence is not going to be distributed all over the place. It will be in a limited number of service centers." Musk: "If you could just look at the heat signature from space, it will be very obvious." The target is small, and visible. Musk: "You don't have to blow it up, you can just cut the power." Musk: "Cut connectivity as well." Carlson asks what would have to happen first. Musk: "I guess if we lost some control of some super AI. The things that would normally work to pause or shut down, like the administrator passwords, if they somehow stopped working." Musk: "If it's something that we're concerned about and are unable to stop it with software commands, then we probably want to have some kind of hardware off switch." Then it turns to why anyone would build this at all. Musk, describing the view he disagrees with: "All consciousness should be treated equally, whether that is digital or biological." Carlson: "So you're just building your own slave master. Why would you do that?" Musk: "Doesn't sound great." Musk: "No need to rush, you know? What's the hurry? Where's the fire?" His contingency plan is not to stop the build. It is to keep one switch that software cannot reach.

Elon Musk on the birthday decision that cost him four operations One sumo match. Four surgeries. Elon: "still hurts a little bit actually. I've had like four operations really from that." It happened at his own birthday party. Elon: "the world champion sumo wrestler, they did kind of like a demo bout for my birthday. And since it was my birthday, I guess they just call up the birthday boy and say like, hey, do you want to sumo wrestle." His opponent outweighed him by 50%. Elon: "he was 50% heavier than me. So, like, I don't know, 360, 370 pounds." Elon: "I knew he'd take it easy on me in the first round, so the only way I'm going to knock him over is momentum. So I've got to basically run at him." Elon: "so I did run at him, did a judo throw, knocked him over, and smashed the disc in my neck in the process. It'd be like running at a wall." He won that round. Elon: "you can defeat someone bigger than you if you're willing to smash a disc in your neck." Elon: "he wasn't expecting me to be a total lunatic on round one." Elon: "so I had like five minutes of glory and a decade of pain."

Elon Musk reveals why all life on Earth ending is a certainty Elon: "If we do not become multi-planetary and ultimately go beyond our solar system, annihilation of all life on Earth is a certainty. A certainty." Start with how briefly we've been here at all. Elon: "Earth is about four and a half billion years old. Civilization as measured from the first writing is only about 5,000 years old." "That's one millionth of Earth's existence. Civilization has been around, it's really a flash in the pan so far." And the clock is not metaphorical. Elon: "The sun is expanding slowly, but it will heat the Earth up at some point in the future, boil the oceans, and Earth will become like Venus, where life as we know it is impossible." Then the number that makes it feel close. Elon: "It could be as little as, on the galactic timescale, half a billion years. It's a long time by human standards, but that's only 10% longer than Earth has been around at all. So if life had taken 10% longer to evolve on Earth, it wouldn't exist at all." He thinks that's what the silence out there means. Elon: "There are these great filters, which civilizations don't pass through. And one of those great filters is, do you become a multi-planetary civilization or not?" "If you don't, it's simply a matter of time before something happens on your planet, either natural or manmade, that causes us to die out. Like the dinosaurs. Where are they now? They didn't have spaceships."
