I’d rather be optimistic and wrong, than pessimistic and right Evil is sticking to BAD IDEAS. If you realize there’s a BAD IDEA, discard it and learn from it and keep looking for GOOD IDEAS. Pursuit of the truth should always be the goal if you want freedom

Elon Musk hopes everyone to be optimistic about the future......that way, you'll be much happier “It’s better to err on the side of optimism and be wrong than to err on the side of pessimism and be right for quality of life You'll be happier if you err on the side of optimism rather than erring on the side of pessimism. And so I'd recommend erring on the side of optimism”
