Elon Musk: In the future, working be like playing sports or a video game. “My prediction is that work will be optional. It’ll be like playing sports or a video game or something like that. If you want to work you can, in the same way that you can go to the store and just buy some vegetables, or you could grow vegetables in your backyard. It’s much harder to grow vegetables in your backyard, but some people still do it because they like growing vegetables. That will be what work is like: optional. Now, between now and then, there’s actually a lot of work to get to that point.” From: U.S.-Saudi Investment Forum November 19, 2025

Elon Musk: In less than 10 years, work won’t be something you have to do… it’ll be something you choose to do. He says the future of AI and robotics is heading toward a world where working becomes optional — just like growing your own vegetables. You can do it, but you don’t have to. Some people will still work because they enjoy it, not because they need to survive. That flips everything we know about jobs, money, and purpose. Imagine waking up and deciding to work purely because you want to, not because you’re forced to. That’s the kind of shift he’s talking about. And it doesn’t stop there — Musk believes Tesla’s Optimus robots could eventually perform highly skilled tasks like surgery, delivering medical care that’s better than what the best humans can provide today. A future where everyone, anywhere in the world, gets access to elite-level healthcare. Optional work. Superhuman doctors. AI running the backbone of society.

Elon Musk predicts working will be optional in less than 20 years. “My prediction is: in less than 20 years, working will be optional, like a hobby, pretty much. And that would be because of increased productivity, meaning people do not have to work; they don’t have to. Look, obviously people can play this back in 20 years and say, “Look, Elon made this ridiculous prediction and it’s not true,” but I think it will turn out to be true—that in less than 20 years, and maybe even as little as, I don’t know, 10 or 15 years, the advancements in AI and robotics will bring us to the point where working is optional. In the same way that, like, say, you can grow your own vegetables in your garden or you could go to the store and buy vegetables, you know. It’s much harder to grow your own vegetables, but you know, some people like to grow their vegetables, which is fine, you know. But it’ll be optional in that way, is my prediction.” — Via new Podcast with Nikhil Kamath

🇺🇸 ELON ON AI: “IF YOU CAN THINK OF IT, YOU CAN HAVE IT - THAT WILL BE THE FUTURE” "I'm Confident that AI and robotics will continue to advance -and they are advancing very rapidly- working will become optional. People will be able to have any goods or services they want. If you can think of it, you can have it. But at a certain point, AI will actually saturate everything humans can think of. And then it becomes a situation where AI is doing things for AI and robotics are doing things for AI and robotics, because they are running out of things to do to make humans happy. Because there is a limit, there are only so many people and only so much food. If you can think of it, you can have it. That will be the future." Source: Elon Musk, Nikhil Kamath

NEW: Elon Musk on AI and Robotics: "Assuming the current trend of artificial intelligence and robotics continues, the AI and robots will be able to do anything that that humans want them to do, but AI and robotics will be able to provide all the goods and services that anyone could possibly want.

"Assuming the current trend of AI and robotics continues, which seems likely, the AI and robots will be able to do anything that that humans want them to do, essentially, so hopefully not more than that, but AI and robotics will be able to provide us all the goods and services that anyone could possibly want so you wouldn't need to work. People will be able to wherever they want with their free time. Work will be optional. I just want to separate out from like what I wish would happen versus what I predict will happen. Because people get confused about that. They think that what I predict will happen is what I wanted to happen. What I predict to happen is not the same as what I want to happen." 一 Elon Musk

Ben Horowitz: “To be a good CEO people have to want to work for you” “What's the fundamental thing that you have to be able to do in order to be CEO? People have to want to work for you. That's it. Because if nobody wants to work for you… you can't actually do anything.” Ben urges founders to consider the reasons people actually want to work for a person: “Do they have good vision? Do they care about my interests and not just theirs? Are they somebody that I can get behind? These are the questions people ask of themselves.” He points out that TV generally portrays CEOs as ruthless, but that’s actually the opposite of what you want to do because nobody wants to work for a person like that.

Elon Musk on the rapid advancement of AI and robotics "I'm confident that if AI and robotics continue to advance which they are advancing very rapidly working will be optional, and people will have any goods and services that they want" AI and robotics are advancing so fast that, eventually, they could satisfy nearly every human need. At that point, abundance becomes the default, and the real question is no longer about production, but purpose "There is a limit people can only eat so much food. But I think if you can think of it, you can have it in the future"

$I hear so often from the Dommes I work with that they struggle with people online fetichizing them and simply seeing them for how sexy and beautiful they are. They project their fantasies and their desires onto you. That stops immediately once you move the attention from you to them. From 'look at me' to 'I see you'. What does that look like? When you create content, think of them and what this scene or that narrative is evoking. What will they learn from you? What they want is not to passively watch how sexy you are, but for you to train them, to give them instructions, to teach them, to guide them, to be in charge, to command them. This is not being an object but the main subject. The Authority figure. How is your content already doing that. The sexy photos can still be there, they are important to already capture des attention. But what you do with that attention once you have it, is where the power dynamic is established. Positioning yourself as more than a stunning Goddess, but actually a woman who has a voice, opinions, perspective, a philosophy, a way to doing things, teaching them what you like, how you like it, why you like it, already makes them want to be that for you. You hold the attention, you hold the power, so you direct it. And for that, you want them to know you get them and you know what lives within them... that creates the desire for you to be the one exposing it. You instantly build trust. Not because you demanded it, but because you earned it: you showed them you know what you are doing. You have experience, you understand them. They are not told to come see you, they are seduced into it. They desire it. And they will work for it. This will attract better clients (real subs) and instead of you trying to get their attention, they will work to earn yours. If you want to learn more about power dynamics, building a brand as a Pro or the psychology behind BDSM, you can now access all my trainings and classes in one place for a fraction of the cost of The Dominatrix Academy. And you can reinvest the total amount towards the Program. Message me [SECRET] for the details. This offer is not available on my website.$

ELON: AI AND ROBOTICS WILL ELIMINATE POVERTY AND TRANSFORM THE ECONOMY “There will be no shortage of products and services for anyone. Basically, anyone will be able to have any products they want. The productivity gains from AI and robotics are astounding to think about. I think it could increase the economy by a factor of 10 or more. It’ll eliminate poverty, and you really will be in a situation where anyone can have anything they want. The bigger challenge may be finding meaning in life. If a robot can do anything you can do, but better, how do you find meaning? That may be the biggest question.” Source: Haider.

Work becomes like growing your own vegetables—a hobby, not a necessity. If you can imagine it, you can have it. Eventually, AI will saturate human needs and start creating for itself." We are heading into the singularity — a future where abundance is the default. 3:07 clip inside—mind-blowing vision of tomorrow.

Palantir CEO Alex Karp says people think we’re in an AI bubble because a lot of AI just doesn’t work: “If you just buy LLMs off the shelf and try to do any of this, it won’t work.” “It’s not precise enough. You can’t do underwriting. You can’t do these things that are regulated.” “People have tried things that just can never work. You buy a LLM, put it on your stack, and wonder why it’s not working.” “What you’re going to see, especially in America, is people trying to do something like Ontology by hand.” “Once you build a software layer to orchestrate and manage the LLMs in a language your enterprise understands, you actually can create value.” “There’s a lot of discussion on if we’re in an AI bubble. What is the meaning of this bubble? If anything, we’re just in a lag. There’s a lot of AI, some of it works.” “Go back to the battlefield context: everybody in the world assumed this would not work. But now it does work. Now the question is, ‘How can I get it to work for my country?’” “Palantir barely has a sales force. In fact, it seems to be getting smaller and smaller every time I go see them.”
