    I must say, that person who dressed up as a robot for their presentation had some pretty sweet moves, but I wouldn’t say those moves are worth $25 trillion.

      Tbf this kind of thing happens constantly with big corporations. Apple just held an anouncement event where they basically said that their operating systems will have chatgpt integration and suddenly they’re the worlds most valuable company again

        There’s a difference between software release windows, and “iOS 19 is going to be a fully conscious AI being named Siri, and will work on all your existing iOS devices, and your phone will be rentable as a second employable being that could earn you passive income or even work your job for you!”

        Elon’s lies are a magnitude removed from the simple announcements other companies know.

      Hey he’s not exactly wrong. The company who can release humanoid automatons would very likely be the richest company in the world. Exponentially richer.

      But I’ve seen what comes out of Tesla. I’m not betting that will be the company that does it.

    I’m not sure that he’s wrong about this, but it’s a pretty unrealistic goal
