Iâll bet that Musk sees this development as a major opening for his own robots, as heâll probably never agree to the âno weaponizationâ thing because of âfreedoms!â or whatever:

âItâs a scam,â says George Hotz, whose company Comma.ai Inc. makes a driver-assistance system similar to Tesla Inc.âs Autopilot. âThese companies have squandered tens of billions of dollars.â In 2018 analysts put the market value of Waymo LLC, then a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc., at $175 billion. Its most recent funding round gave the company an estimated valuation of $30 billion, roughly the same as Cruise. Aurora Innovation Inc., a startup co-founded by Chris Urmson, Googleâs former autonomous-vehicle chief, has lost more than 85% since last year and is now worth less than $3 billion. This September a leaked memo from Urmson summed up Auroraâs cash-flow struggles and suggested it might have to sell out to a larger company. Many of the industryâs most promising efforts have met the same fate in recent years, including Drive.ai, Voyage, Zoox, and Uberâs self-driving division. âLong term, I think we will have autonomous vehicles that you and I can buy,â says Mike Ramsey, an analyst at market researcher Gartner Inc. âBut weâre going to be old.â

And theyâll be able to fly, and theyâll be powered by cold fusion, and each will come with a spandex jacket for every passenger!

With that much money youâd think they would have perfected a teleporter by now.

God knows I have never been a fan of Musk, but I donât think I am imagining this. He really is unraveling and it is accelerating. Musk a month from now should be spactacular.

It couldnât possibly be because you make denigrating comments about trans people and that makes her life worse everyday and put her at risk - wherever she goes. And all her friends and community.

I canât tell if heâs unraveling or just the wealthiest person alive who realized he doesnât have to hold back.
Denigrating comments? Heâs just asking questions and doesnât like pronouns. It had to be the commies. /s

I wonder how robust his wealth is at this point. Can he weather bad press or will his reputation and his wealth spiral downwards together?

I think you only need to look in the mirror for âturning your daughter against youâ ElonâŚ

It seems to me like he fell into a bad circle, with new right-wingers eager to push him further from reality. He was never someone who cared or had much real grip on it, but it wasnât all open transphobia and stanning for dictatorsâŚmy theory is thatâs the difference between where Grimes had sometimes said things like âyou donât really mean thatâ, and now getting his ego fed for showing off just how little tether he has.

Dude was born in a bad circle⌠his parents ran an emerald mine in South Africa. The wealthy donât have a grip on reality, because they simply donât have to.
I think he just wasnât saying that part out loud. Heâs gonna support whoever ensures he remains on top, no matter how odious.

Yeah, and to be clear, by the new right-wingers I mean theâŚsay Alex Jones and Joe Rogan set instead of the Liz Cheney and Koch brothers set. The ones who make it a virtue of showing off what a cruel idiot you are, instead of simply being a monster on your own time.
But âwe will coup who we wantâ isnât a new tweet. Musk has plainly never valued anything other than Musk.
