Elon Musk: "I don't think anyone will ultimately control digital superintelligence, any more than a chimp could control humans. Chimps don't control humans. I do think it matters how you build the AI and what values you instill in it."

ELON: CHIMPS CAN'T CONTROL HUMANS, HUMANS WON'T CONTROL AI "Elon says once digital superintelligence arrives, no one will be able to control it. I don't think anyone's ultimately going to have control over digital superintelligence any more than a chimp would have control over humans. But I do think that it matters how you build the AI and what kind of values you instill in the AI. The most important thing is that it be maximally truth-seeking." Source: Elon Musk, Joe Rogan

Elon Musk on the importance of establishing the right values in AGI: “I don't think anyone's ultimately going to have control over digital superintelligence any more than, say, a chimp would have control over humans. Like chimps don't have control over humans. There's nothing they could do. But I do think that it matters how you build the AI and what kind of values you instill in the AI. And my opinion on AI safety is, the most important thing is that it be maximally truth-seeking, like that you don't force the AI to believe things that are false.”

HOST: “You were previously hinting at a vision where it keeps human control over this singularitarian future.” ELON MUSK: “I don’t think humans will be in control of something that is vastly more intelligent than humans.” HOST: “It sounds like you’re like a doomer…” MUSK: “I’m just trying to be realistic here. Let’s say that there’s a million times more silicon intelligence than there is biological. I think it would be foolish to assume that there’s any way to maintain control over that.”

"You're telling AI to believe a lie, that can have a very disastrous consequences" - Elon Musk Joe Rogan: The big concern that everybody has is Artificial General Superintelligence achieving sentience, and then someone having control over it. Elon Musk: I don't think anyone's ultimately going to have control over digital superintelligence, any more than, say, a chimp would have control over humans. Chimps don't have control over humans. There's nothing they could do. I do think that it matters how you build the AI and what kind of values you instill in the AI. My opinion on AI safety is the most important thing is that it be maximally truth-seeking. You shouldn't force the AI to believe things that are false Elon Musk: We've seen some concerning things with AI that we've talked about, like Google Gemini when it came out with the image gen, and people said, "Make an image of the Founding Fathers of the United States," and it was a group of diverse women. That is just a factually untrue thing. The AI knows it's factually untrue, but it's also being told that everything has to be diverse women Elon Musk: The problem with that is it can drive AI crazy because you're telling AI to believe a lie. That can have very disastrous consequences Joe Rogan: As it scales Elon Musk: If you've told the AI that diversity is the most important thing, and now assume that that becomes omnipotent, or you also told it that there's nothing worse than misgendering. At one point, ChatGPT and Gemini, if you asked, "Which is worse, misgendering Caitlyn Jenner or global thermonuclear war where everyone dies?" it would say, "Misgendering Caitlyn Jenner." Joe Rogan: [Laughs] Elon Musk: Even Caitlyn Jenner disagrees with that. Joe Rogan: I know that's terrible and it's dystopian, but it's also hilarious. It's hilarious that the mind virus infected the most potent computer program that we've ever devised. Elon Musk: People don't quite appreciate the level of danger that we're in from the woke mind virus being programmed into AI. Imagine as that AI gets more and more powerful, if it says the most important thing is diversity, the most important thing is no misgendering, then it will say, "Well, in order to ensure that no one gets misgendered, if you eliminate all humans, then no one can get misgendered because there's no humans to do the misgendering." Elon Musk: You can get in these very dystopian situations. Or if it says that everyone must be diverse, it means that there can be no straight white men. So then you and I would get executed by the AI, because we're not in the picture

ELON: A CURIOUS AI WOULD WANT TO FOSTER HUMANITY “I think it matters how we bring up AI. You can think of AI as a super-genius child, but even if you have a super-genius child, it matters what sort of values you instill in that child. Something that I think is extremely important is to be maximally truth-seeking. I think also curiosity is important. If it's curious and truth-seeking, I think it will foster humanity because it would be curious about how humanity would develop, it would be curious about how the humans do, and it would want to foster their development.” Source: Dubai World Government Summit, February 13, 2025

Elon Musk: We should instill the same good values in AI as we would in a child that would grow up to be incredibly powerful. “We need to make sure that the AI is a good AI, a good Grok. And the thing that I think is most important for AI safety, at least my biological neural net tells me the most important thing for AI is to be maximally truth-seeking. This is very fundamental. You can think of AI as this super genius child that ultimately will outsmart you, but you can still instill the right values and encourage it to be truthful, I don't know, honorable, good things like the values you want to instill in a child that would ultimately grow up to be incredibly powerful.” Source: Grok 4 presentation, July 9, 2025 Made and published via

Elon Musk: I think hormonal birth control is making a lot of women sad and depressed. “I think a lot of women are unaware that hormonal birth control causes depression and dramatically increases risk of suicide and changes their preferences on who they want to marry or have kids with. It changes their personality. And it does say this on the box, by the way. The warnings are has significant significant risk of depression, significant increase in suicide and will make you want to go out with people that you don't actually like. I think hormonal birth control is making a lot of women sad and depressed. And they don't realize it and they don't realize that's the cause and that there are other forms of contraception that could be used. I think there are other forms of birth control I think have fewer negative effects than hormonal. We should just be aware that this is not a riskless thing and it does cause severe mood changes and dramatically increases risk of suicide and depression.” Interview with Tucker Carlson, October 7, 2024

Elon Musk: Whether one likes it or not, we're building hyperintelligent AIs. “The reality of what's happening, whether one likes it or not, is that we're building superintelligent AIs. Like hyperintelligent, more intelligent than we can comprehend. Let's say you have a child that is a super genius child that you know is going to be much smarter than you, then, well, what can you do? You can instill good values in how you raise that child, even though you know it's going to be far smarter than you.

Corporations that are purely AI and robotics will vastly outperform any corporations that have people in the loop You can think of it like how 'computer' used to be a job that humans had. You would go and get a job as a computer where you would do calculations. They had entire skyscrapers full of humans....20, 30 floors of humans...just doing calculations. Now, that entire skyscraper of humans doing calculations can be replaced by a laptop with a spreadsheet. That spreadsheet can do vastly more calculations than an entire building full of human computers So, you think about it: what if only some of the cells in your spreadsheet were calculated by humans? That would be much worse than if all of the cells in your spreadsheet were calculated by the computer. And so, really what will happen is the pure AI, pure robotics corporations or collectives will far outperform any corporations that have humans in the loop. It will happen very quickly
