Elon Musk thinks AI and humanoid robots could eventually give everyone access to medical care better than what the richest people can get today. He even hopes AI can solve one of the most common problems people deal with as they get older: Back pain. 😂 “If AI can... show more

And we all know how generous rich people when it comes to helping the poor.

Look at Howard Schubiner and Mark Lumley from the Association of Treament for Neuroplastic symptoms; repeat placebo controlled studies are showing to have a consistent effective full cure for back pain. Humans beat AI to it!

Nope. Base , human nature will damn us all.

💯 agree. I’m a big believer AI will bring incredible access to the masses. This may sound stupid compared to medical access, but I’ve been using fsd for over a year now and I feel like a rich person 🤣. I’m middle class with my own chauffeur

ELON MUSK: "My back still hurts a little bit. I'm like, Can AI please solve back pain? That would be a huge one. And I think it will. Back pain sucks. I think that's maybe why do people get grumpy when they get oldest? Because of back pain."

Back pain sucks; AI could provide the answer to it. Elon: "So, if you've got humanoid robots that have very high dexterity and are incredibly smart, it means that everyone on Earth will have access to better medical care than the richest person on Earth, which I had to have neck surgery three times because the first two ones were done wrong. You know, can AI please solve back pain? That would be a huge win, and I think it will."

Honestly, the average happiness level for humans would go up tremendously if you just solved back pain. It’s not a question of if you’ll get back pain, it’s when.

Elon on his back pain: “My back still hurts all the time… if you just solve back pain, that would be amazing.” He’s building rockets, cars and AI, and still has to deal with the most ordinary human problem. Even he wants the simple fix.

ELON: AI IS OUTSMARTING DOCTORS - I TOLD YOU THIS WAS COMING "I don't want to blow your minds, but AI is going to be big. If you go back even five years ago, I was saying AI is going to be this massive thing — that deep superintelligence is smarter than the smartest human. People thought I was kidding, and they thought that was ridiculous. Now the latest AIs are able to pass complicated tests better than most humans. They can pass the medical tests better than like 80% of doctors or something like that." Source: Elon Musk Mark Penn January 9th 2025

Elon Musk reveals why he’s building rockets, AI, and humanoid robots at the same time "The overall goal of my companies is to maximize the probability that civilization has a great future, and to expand consciousness beyond earth" "We need to assume that life and consciousness is extremely rare and it might only be us" "The image in my mind is of a tiny candle in a vast darkness, a tiny candle of consciousness that could easily go out" "That's why it's important to make life multiplanetary, such that if there's a natural or man-made disaster on earth, that consciousness continues" "That's the purpose of SpaceX" "With robotics and AI, this is really the path to abundance for all. The only way to solve global poverty and give everyone a very high standard of living is AI and robotics" "My prediction is there'll be more robots than people. Everyone on earth is going to have one and going to want one. We will make so many robots and AI that they will saturate all human needs. You won't be able to even think of something to ask the robot for" "Who wouldn't want a robot to watch over your kids, take care of your pet, or protect an elderly parent? There just aren't enough young people to take care of the old people" "Overall I'm very optimistic. We're headed for a future of amazing abundance. We are in the most interesting time in history"

🚨HARSH TRUTH: AI WILL TAKE YOUR JOB!!! And Elon Musk thinks that might actually be a good thing. Sounds crazy at first. But his logic is simple. Most people don’t work because they love their job. They work because they have to. Rent. Food. Bills. That’s the deal. Your job was never really your dream. It was the price of survival. Elon believes AI and robots could eventually break that deal. And he’s not just talking about it. He’s actively building the technology that could make it happen. Tesla is building Optimus, a humanoid robot designed to do physical labor. Tesla’s AI is being trained to automate more and more real world tasks. Starlink is bringing internet to places that never had access before. And SpaceX is pushing the cost of launching things into space lower than ever. All of this points to one direction. A world where machines produce far more than humans ever could. If machines produce almost everything, the cost of producing things collapses. And when production becomes incredibly cheap, the cost of living drops with it. Elon compares the future of money to air. Nobody checks their bank account to see if they still have air. It’s just there. One day, he believes money could feel the same way. He calls it Universal High Income. Not just survival payments. A world where the basics of life become abundant. Food. Housing. Healthcare. But Elon isn’t celebrating this future. He’s worried about something else. Because once machines can do everything better than humans, money stops being the biggest problem. The real problem becomes meaning. For most people, work is where their sense of value comes from. Their role. Their identity. Their reason to feel useful. Take that away and a lot of people won’t know who they are. As Elon once said: “If the computer can do everything better than you, does your life have meaning?” AI might solve the money problem. But it could create the biggest meaning crisis in human history.

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"

There'll be more robots than people.

ELON: AI AND ROBOTS WILL CREATE AN AGE OF ABUNDANCE "I think that there's no actual limit to the size of the economy once you have general purpose humanoid robots and autonomous vehicles. You can build anything. The economy is really just the average productivity per person times number of people. That's the economy, and if you've got humanoid robots where there's no real limit on the number of humanoid robots and they can operate very intelligently, then there's no meaningful limit to the economy. The good future of AI is one of immense prosperity, where there is an age of abundance, no shortage of goods and services. Everyone can have whatever they want, anything that is a manufactured good or provided service. With the advent of AI plus robotics, the cost of goods and services will trend to zero."
