Okay, wait. I'll just read off all of your companies, Elon. I know them, but I'm just going to read them to make sure I don't miss one because there's so many now. Founder, CEO, Chief Engineer of SpaceX, CO Product Architect and Chairman of Tesla, owner, Chairman, C2 of X, X.com, founder of Boring Company, co-founder of Neuralink and OpenAI and president of the Musk Foundation.
Yeah. Go like your winner of mine. Brainman David Saffa. And it said we open source it to fans and they just got the reason for it. Love you guys. I see the queen you can love. I'm going to leave. Where are you? I mean, here's Connie. It's kind of absurd. Where are you at, Starbys?
是的。去支持我赢家Brainman David Saffa吧。而且我们还宣布向粉丝们开源它,他们现在知道原因了。爱你们。我明白你可以爱上皇后的。我要离开了。你在哪里?我的意思是,这里有康妮。有点荒谬。你在星巴克吗?
I'm in flight. Currently. So this is a Starlink in flight connection.
我正在飞行中。现在使用的是Starlink的飞行连接。
Are you kidding me? That's, oh yeah, that works pretty well, huh? I think there's only one.
你在逗我吧?哦,是的,那个挺好用的,对吧?我觉得只有一个。
Wait, I think it's one of those.
等一下,我觉得是其中之一。
It's fantastic. I'm housed all in the works in an airplane at altitude. There's only one of those in existence, right?
太棒了。我住在一架飞行中的飞机上,飞行高度很高。这种飞机只存在一架,对吗?
It's on your plane. That's it. One on one?
在你的飞机上。就是这样。一对一的吗?
There are a number of designers that have a Starlink and there will be a lot more in the future.
现在已经有很多设计师拥有了Starlink,而且将来会有更多人使用它。
Starlink connection, assuming it's working properly is you're already able to tell you you're on the ground or on the air. Because unlike a geosick or satellite, the legacy is really less than 20 milliseconds. So it's a, in fact, for a lot of people, the sonic connection on the plane will be better than their connection at their house. That would be pretty great.
How is the Starship doing? It was incredible to see the first launch, but I understand you're closing in on the second. I know you've been working really hard on that and the teams working hard on it. When do you think you're going to get the next one up and what are the chances it makes it to orbit?
Well, we have the second one stacked at Starbase. So it's ready to go. And we've shared that up in the last week. We believe we've completed the remaining items, so requested by the FAA. So we should get our license hopefully soon. But really the only thing, probably back, the second planet Starship this point is very comfortable.
Wow. What's your expectation or your hope in terms of the probability that it gets to orbit?
哇,对于它能够进入轨道的概率,你有什么期望或希望?
It's just a question of finding. Allum, just take to get the approval paperwork, whatnot. So that's really up to the FAA at this point. But what about making it to orbit? GVing? You got a shot this time?
We are doing a new staging technique called hot staging where you like the upstage engines or the ship engines, while the boost stage is still firing. And this is the most important way to do stage separation of rocket-burg orbit. But we did not try that on the last question and we're trying to get on this mission. We think it will be overall better. But I think probably about, I hope, well, almost 50% chance of getting to stage separation. And maybe at close to 50% chance of character orbits, if the hot staging is your separation method, is it works? I'd say maybe it's like a, you know, above, I'd say probably above 30% chance of getting to orbit this time, or as previously I said below 50.
Is this, in terms of complexity, how complex is this of a problem compared to the other problems you've worked on in your career?
从复杂性角度来看,与你职业生涯中遇到的其他问题相比,这个问题有多复杂?
Well, so, I mean, making a rocket that is more than twice the size of the Saturn V, you know, it's a, in fact, with what's the next year of the rocket, it will have roughly three times the size of Saturn V in rocket, wherever it's signed to be, fully or rapidly reusable, whereas, you know, the Saturn V was completely expandable. And with Falcon I, we still expand the upper stage. But we break back the group stage, as people have probably seen the rocket landing videos, and we are also able to recover the variant with the Falcon I, but these things do land to quickly out to sea. So it takes a while to bring it back to board and get the way to fighting. The thing that, you know, so there's a scale of starship, but then also the fact that it is a scientific full and rapid reusability. So both the booster and the ship come back to launch site. They get caught by these giant racers' arms. We've seen converse as Godzilla. It's basically that catches this giant rocket, you know, better, and puts it back on the launch stand and gets ready for launch. So it will be capable of, you know, basically aircraft level flight rates. But it's much bigger than, say, 747 or HV8.
Oh, Elon, can we talk about the events of, was it last weekend, the whole Ukraine Starlink thing? Can you give us like the TikTok of like, what's going on and like, how you're being forced to decide? But like, what is it like in that decision room, if there was one, or wherever you were, where you're trying to figure out, am I keeping this on? Do I turn it off? What is going on? People must have been bombarding you. Do you think you can share about what that was like? How you made the decision?
Yeah, so I think it was actually mistaken a little bit in the understanding of the situation. You know, obviously, we, SpaceX have provided Star Link connectivity for, you know, to Ukraine really since the beginning of the war. We really think within a few days of the war starting. And as the Ukrainian government said, the Star Link was instrumental in the effects of Ukraine. So, you know, they've said that really many times, although the media forgets to mention that. So, and in fact, they've said it on Twitter, it, you know, it's totally known as Twitter. It's going to take a while to get that right. Yeah. Yeah.
So, you know, you don't have to take my word for it. You just read what they posted. You know, so there's only just been incredibly helpful to you in the Ukraine World War effort. We're here to find out a pocket very significantly to help them. And, you know, at the time this happened, the region around Crimea was actually turned off. Now, the reason it was turned off was actually originally was because the United States had sanctions against Russia. And we're not allowed to actually, that includes Crimea in the sanctions. And we're not actually turned on connectivity to sanctions because we have to explicitly go on approval. So, we did not have the US government.
So, so basically the Ukraine didn't give us any advance warning for his up or anything, but we just got the sort of urgent calls from the Ukraine government saying that we needed to turn on Crimea. It's like in the middle of the night. We're like, what are you talking about? You lost. It's a four. You know, and that, you know, we're basically figured out that this was kind of like a Pearl Harbor time attack or a festival on the Russia festival. So they're really asking us to really for actually take part in a major act for. And, you know, what we have so to certainly have huge of his board for the Ukrainian government. The Ukrainian government is not in charge US people or companies. That's not how it works. And, and Elon, if I could just. I should say that, you know, we'll blow in lots of President Biden's big extent. If I received a presidential directive to turn it on, I would have done so because I do regard the president as the chief executive officer of the country with whether I want that president or not, I so respect the office. And so, you know, if I come to request for the president type of thing, you said, American president, which I clear. Then I would have turned it on. You know, so, but those such requests came through.
That's a really interesting point. And your, I mean, the, what you're most referring to is you're now being attacked. I saw there was, you know, there's Jake Tapper. The other day on CNN interviewing our secretary of state was just, he was all lathered up basically attacking you for this. David David. I mean, it's a, to his credit secretary, the blanket was actually quite supportive, despite the absurd, you know, accusations and the questions of Jake Tapper. Yeah, he didn't take the bait. He didn't take the bait. To me, this is an example of no good deed goes on punish because if you had never given. I hope so. I hope some good deeds. Not going much. I mean, if you, if you had never given startling. It just, it's a smart idea. Yeah. But yeah, I mean, my point is just if you had never given startling to the Ukrainian government for free voluntarily, you just volunteered it, then no one would be attacking you right now for not turning it on so they could do their attack on Crimea.
Also, one other thing I'll note is that your reason for not turning it on, which is you don't be part of what could be a major escalation, was exactly, was exactly the reason the Biden administration did not give a tackums, a tack of missiles to Ukraine at that point in the war. Now, they may be changing their minds, but they were very worried about an attack the administration was an attack on Crimea triggering some huge escalation in this war. So, not only did you not receive a directive from President Biden, you were thinking was very much in line with theirs at the time, and you're being attacked for that now.
There's something you mentioned, which is that you did this at a lot of economic cost to SpaceX. Can you just talk about that for a second? Because I'm not sure people understand who's paying for what right now and who hasn't been paid and, you know, etc.
Yeah. Well, I should say like a lot of people contributed to the effort. Starring is the fundamental communication backbone of the Ukrainian government and essential services like British responders and that kind of thing. And, you know, it's used peacefully, relatively, usually on the war front. It is the only thing that works on war front. Everything else is being jammed by the Russians. So, it's the only thing that works. Not one of the things.
But I think you have to sort of think of say, you know, taking the actual example of Paul Haber and say like, well, how did that work out for Japan? It didn't work out well at all. Because it was a tactical victory, a strategic defeat, and it raves the very public who's sort of nationally one of vengeance for the sack. You know, the sack. And I think that, you know, while it makes on the same scale, that there was certainly that potential of sort of many people. With ourselves getting a mass escalation of hostilities. But not this would not be brought to feed Russia. We're getting in range Russia.
Do you donate the network or do they pay you for it?
Sorry. So, I'm actually not sure what the final accounting is at this point. I think at one point, at one point, you're calculating our sort of cost of sporting things that are roughly $100 million. Now, the $100 million does not count the mass of risk to the entire starting constellation. Because Russia would like to have the entire thing deleted. So, you know, nobody's compensating us for that. And so, if we were to get safe, our control center were take down cyber attack. They, you know, they could come out a little satellite to be open and destroy the power system. Or use anti satellite weapons. So, you know, these are, this is pretty significant risk. For which we have enough conversation and obviously would be catastrophic to the entire. Stalling system, which is, you know, approaching $10 billion.
Elon, do you think the current government administration.
One saying, hey, $10 million. And then actually, I say one of the broad and interesting things was, as you've seen this, there's a very large amount of money that's been appropriated for Ukraine. You know, I'm not sure what the total is at this point. But it must be 100 plus 100 billion or somewhere from 80 and 100 billion. You know, now all of the, you know, other sort of providers, US providers of support to Ukraine are being paid. So then why should space actually excluded that doesn't make sense. We're doing one of the most valuable things. And yet, our getting the least money, the system, sir. But, you know, despite that, we're still happy to keep it on.
And.
Elon, does the Biden administration have it out for you? And why? Why do we gave you that idea?
Yeah. But let me ask you own and control. How do you have a full administration that's out right there? Right. I think it's probably aspects of the administration. Is it not, you know, aspects of interests aligned with the President Biden, who probably do not wish good things for me. I don't know, you know, really what their issue is. But there does seem to be a significant increase in the webinization of government. And I think really sort of misuse of prosecutorial description in many areas where, and I think this is really an dangerous thing for, you know, for, I don't know, for them to be partisan politics with government agencies. It's just really. And then I think from, you know, from saying that the Democratic Party standpoint or say Biden administration standpoint, I think the danger here is that it is significant misuse of prosecutorial discretion. Let's say, one says, okay, everyone's equal under the law. Yes, but who are you, who are you choosing to pursue? And if you're pursuing what appeared to independent voters to be trivial cases while ignoring serious crimes, I talk to imagine that a lot of independent voters, that's going to win over a thoughtful independent voters.
Yeah, I think that it changed somewhat. You know, I'll go with the sort of, you know, the X platform is really sweet. A level playing field, a public square that is sport of, you know, most of the country, let's say that the middle 80% or something like that.
Now, that's not in the case really for all social media. So, all social media have been really very, very left-leaning, quality, and it really was called at-leaning. You know, the suspensions of, of, um, Sarah Republican candidates or interests or voices was really at least 10 times the rate of suppression of left-leaning voices on, you know, like, on the whole Twitter. So, so, you know, what I wonder if I do is we move it to the middle, which from standpoint of, say, the left appears, it is moving to the right, very relative, if you're standing on the left. But it's not, it's still moving to the middle, but that's all. And in an attempt to actually represent the whole country and, and not just, um, here, half country or even maybe less than half country.
So, that's it really. So, I think there's like, there's really nothing to be alarmed about here. It's, you know, it's just that it's, it's intended to be a town square inclusive of the whole country and also, you know, and the world. That's all.
It's been, I guess you took over, um, X Twitter on Halloween weekend, if I remember correctly, when you got to the building, you got the keys. Uh, David and I were lucky to be there with you when you got the keys and we got to check things out. Um, this is 10 months into the turnaround. Uh, and it wasn't a high functioning organization, I think, when you took it over. Where is the company at now and are you pleased with, I guess, the progress because it looks like new features are getting launched. The product velocity is great.
Uh, obviously advertising's been challenging, but it feels like there's some green shoots. So, so how do you feel about the purchase now?
嗯,显然广告业面临一些挑战,但感觉现在有一些希望的迹象。那么,你现在对这次购买有什么感觉?
Yeah, well, I should say we're recently seeing a significant increase in advertising, which is great. Um, so that's, uh, if that track continues, um, I think the company will be in very good financial shape on the advertising front. Um, so that in terms of positive developments that, that seems to be one of them.
Um, and, um, from a feature standpoint, I think those are using the system. I think we've, I think we might have a little bit more new features, you know, in the last, I don't hear them in the last. You know, all, all, sort of, in five years. Yeah, this, this really, the feature, the feature development pace is very rapid. Um, and this has been done with really about 15% of the original company. Um, a little more 15, 20%. Um, so it's, it's really, you know, efficient.
Uh, you know, at the end of the day, you have to say, you know, how complicated is a system, uh, like the X Twitter platform. Um, um, you know, how different is it from a group chat, frankly, it's like a group chat at scale. Um, so, I don't think you need an army to maintain a group chat. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's, it's not the self-driving platform and it had maybe 10 times as many people working on it as the self-driving platform at Tesla.
Which seems crazy. The entire self-driving AI software team is 200 people. And, uh, we're very, very, very, very, very, very complex then for, for, for, you know, much better. A lot more. Um, you know, there's other things that obviously need to be done like, uh, our sales, um, helps the network operations and, um, how can you talk to us about it?
No, it's really not, it's not a huge, uh, I don't like to say it. Don't even know me for, for, for, for what we're doing here. And I think, you know, the people that are, um, still have company RRC, be very productive in creating and leveraging your features. Um, and, um, you know, we keep seeing some record, record usage and, or, and the, the, the most for the most for the most number is really the user seconds after reported by the mobile device, especially iOS.
The, the, you know, the iOS, uh, court, what, our, our reports as the screen time is the, is, is the least gameful metric. Um, and those numbers are extremely, uh, very good. Um, so, you know, I think, of course, it's the optimistic about where things are added. And I, I feel like the companies don't, you know, just recently, don't corner. Um, and, you know, it's, and, um, at least moderate prosperity and, and hopefully significant.
Tell us about, um, the success of sharing revenue. Why did you do it? And then just the, the vision you have for just the creator economy and what you want that to evolve into and build into.
Yeah, I mean, it sounds the reason that if, if you're a creator and, uh, you need to, um, you can make a living for what you do. Um, so there's going to be, um, you know, fair compensation and competitive compensation for a creator, whether they're doing, you know, writing or pictures, video, whatever the case may be.
Um, and, uh, so we're not, we're not really in, you know, advancing anything new here. Um, so you know, as YouTube does with creators, they will ship a few revs here, um, without advertising. And so we're doing a revs here without advertising. Um, we're pulsing it, you know, obviously they have an able direct subscription to, uh, accounts where whatever that somebody, you know, you could be doing audio video, log form text, anything. And you could subscribe to someone and, um, that's, you know, obviously that's where you put some scriver and a gliving as well. You know, for a creator to make a living.
So the intent is for the X platform to be the best home for creators. Uh, where if you've got interesting content, then you, you want to put around platform and, um, you know, there's a lot of questions about like sort of yellow, but not I should mention like the yellow is, uh, I think almost all of it is open sourced and we will, uh, I think quite soon have the entire thing open source. Uh, the only reason it really hasn't been done entirely with the source yet is because we're somewhere in the cover to need to just clean it up before putting something extremely embarrassing out there. But the point is that like we want transparency votes trust and if you've got, um, if you can recreate the results on the X platform of how viral posts is going to be independently using the, uh, the, the, the public algorithm, you know, the Oculus algorithm. Um, that's really where we want to get to. Um, so you kind of, you kind of know what to expect. Um, and why something happened.
Um, no, no, I should say we are trying to optimize for a user of time. Um, on the platform. What this naturally means is that, um, posting content that someone looks at longer is going to get higher priority than content that is short. So just because the system is trying to. Max is, it's, it's, it's aspiring to maximize, uh, you, uh, undergrat that user of minutes is what I call it. So like basically how do we, um, if we're succeeding, you want to spend more time on the platform and you want to, and I'm having spent that time, you don't want to regret it.
Um, I'm speaking of TikTok. Um, you know, this, I've had a lot of people tell me they spent a lot of time on the TikTok and they regret it. Um, we don't want to be, we want it to be that you spend a lot of time on the X platform and you learn a lot. Uh, you, you're entertained and you don't regret it. So we are optimizing for, you know, use of minutes and like I said, aspirationally, I regret it. Use of minutes.
Uh, if you, if you, the more content that you post on the system, the more reach that thing will get because the system is saying, oh, there's a user is spending more time in the platform because they're, they're seeing, say your podcast or reading. Um, along from article or watching some video. Um, but that's going to get a lot more time than say if you link to a video elsewhere or you link to an article elsewhere. That, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that means you'll see, we'll be on that post for a very short period of time. And so the, the system will be like, okay, that did not increase, uh, user time. So it will, it won't be a bit, it will get less attention than actually posting content natively on the system.
Do you want to talk, um, about, uh, the ADL and you, uh, sort of where, what the status of that is, whether you're pursuing a lawsuit or not or where that stands? Um, I think we'll have to see about that. I mean, um, yeah, I mean, the fact matters that, uh, ADL did, you know, did initiated white car, then we call it a white car, they call it a pause. But, you know, pause that is never ending. It's white car. Yeah, it's insane.
Uh, so, and, and we just, we saw a massive drop in, uh, US advertising. We saw basically no change in advertising in Asia, but domestically, ADL is strong. We saw, uh, 60% drop in advertising. So, you know, that's, uh, pretty intense. Um, and, um, and this is despite, you know, showing repeated, uh, analyses of the system, including third party analysis of the system, which actually showed that, uh, you know, the use of a full content, uh, declined. So, you know, the third party to have all the data and analysis that actually does less state speech.
Um, the issue, I think with the ADL is not a question of hate speech. It's not a question of 70% obviously. Uh, it's that the ADL and a lot of other organizations have become activist organizations, um, which are acting far beyond their, um, uh, state advantage or their original mandate. And, and I think far beyond the work donors to those organizations think they are doing.
Um, you know, one of the things that the ADL was extremely opposed to, and in fact, was instrumental in, in happening, was that the ADL was instrumental in getting, um, uh, the, um, the, um, the, the ADL was instrumental in getting the ADL. Um, and then when we, we, we, we, we, we, we restored the account, um, that they made it super clear that they regarded simply restoring his account on, you know, which, well, he hasn't even said anything, you know. Um, he hasn't at least said something or post something for their incremental, painful, painful content. This is absurd.
Um, and what's this got through with Andy Simmons? You know, Donald Trump's son, or she's, she was going to be pretty sure he's not anti-Semitic. Okay. Um, he knows the wedding. So, um, this, this, so, so, so, so, the problem is that a lot of these, um, organizations like said, they've really been captured by the work agenda and they're, they're pushing, um, you know, series of beliefs and values that I think are often contrary to what they're done is believe. And that's, uh, that's what we have in this situation.
Well, yeah, I'll note that the two positions that you've taken that have brought the most heat on you. Number one, defending free speech. Number two, advocating peace. And how dare you? Yeah. How dare you? How dare you? And there's, there's an article. I mean, opposite world is. Yeah. We're living in a world. There's, there's an article in today's New Yorker calling you a supervillain because you're advocating peace and protecting the First Amendment. I mean, it's like completely upside down. Do you want people to eat their vegetables? At this point, you literally cannot tell actual press from parody.
No. It's like, if that was a family or onion. No, no, you're doing it. You're doing it. And change the matter to, you know, that one be whatever I need or something like that. And pass them parody thing and be like, Oh, that's a good joke. Yeah. It's normally advocate for peace. That's, you know, of course. We want to get rid of all the nuclear weapons. Hey, hold on. There was a, there was a, yeah, that's a, what? The funniest, the funniest skit that didn't make it on SNL that we were work shopping was probably Woke James Bond. And we wanted to do like this, Woke James Bond and, you know, I will tell you some of the jokes. It was pretty hilarious. But then we were just talking about a story that broke in The Guardian about the new James Bond novel and short story is to Woke. And it's literally the parody we did two years ago.
Elon speaking of Keith, we had a grim Allison's reality. And also like the, you know, the conspiracy theories that haven't come true list is, you know, quite short. And we really need walk and spur these generated because we're running out of to find the trim. Okay, it's to be that man checked off his accurate. So, I don't know if it was, you know, responsible for these conspiracy theories, but, you know, we've seen some more material. Paging Alex Jones.
Elon, we had Graham Allison here today. I know you talked about his book. We had Ray Dalio here. We had Rokana. And we talked a lot about China, the US relationship with China. You are, you have several businesses that have deep supplier and customer relationships in China. Given what's going on and clearly the tenor has changed, the mood has changed with respect to US policy towards China, what it's like in DC, what it's like in Silicon Valley and how everyone talks about the relationship with China today. It's pretty crazy how quick things have changed. As a business leader with all these business relationships with China, how do you make decisions and how things are changing and how do you think about where this has had it?
Sure. Well, I mean, I'm just terrified here. You know, SpaceX has no, it's SpaceX and Starlink. No, it's in China whatsoever. They're not like SpaceX does launch China satellites and Starlink is abandoned in China. So, so we clear it's SpaceX Starlink zero business China. In the case of Tesla, one of our, well, all four vehicle factories, one is in China. So, you know, it's a significant car market, but it is, you know, so what I'm trying to say is like by following the call of my business interest, if I have a purely bucket towel, which I aspire not to be, or outside of China, let's just be fair about that. Then with respect to, now that said, I think I understand China well, I've been there many times so met with senior leadership at many levels of China for many years. And so I think I've got a pretty good understanding, at least as an outsider or China. So, and it has been very successful domestically in China. So, you know, the fundamental thing here is, is really Taiwan. The China has, well, really since, for like half a century or so, it may be longer at this point, which is longer at this point.
But the policies have been to reunite Taiwan with China. From this standpoint, you know, maybe it's analogous to like Hawaii or something like that, like an integral part of China that is arbitrarily not part of China, mostly because of the US. So, as the US, so we cleared, has stopped at any sort of reunification at the fullest. So, now really things get to the point, increasingly you're over here, where China's military strength is increasing, and ours is more or less static. And strategically, you know, you can imagine trying to defend Taiwan is not easy because it's very close to the coast of China. So, they will come a point, if, you know, probably not the not too distant future where China's military strength in that region parts of its US military strength in that region. And if one is to take China's policy literally and probably one should, then there will be some forceful force will be used for, you know, to incorporate Taiwan into China. This is what they've said that if there's not a diplomatic solution, there will be a solution by force. So, let me, if I can.
And so, really what's going on here and you see, you know, listen, in many areas, I think this template is going to increase is that, you know, both China and the US are preparing for a potential showdown, you know, in the South China state. So, that's why you're seeing, we're increasing restrictions on export of US technology to China, but such as the, the video is, the video H-100 is being banned, you'd not ship this China.
And I think there'll be more and more, you also know that it's not a shift, advanced chip making equipment to China. So, can I suspect China's going to respond with some reciprocal sanctions? And I think you'll see this kind of a temper tant our circle sanctions increasing in the next few years. So, I think quite a very hot temperature. And then we'll see this, is there going to be a diplomatic solution to your reification or a non-d diplomatic solution?
I mentioned Nvidia, so let me just talk about AI and bring it back to that for a second. Can you tell us your regrets, but also the positives of the experience you had with OpenAI and then what your goals are with XAI? So, the AI discussion is certainly a long one, but could be a long one.
Digital super intelligence might be the most significant technology that humanity ever creates. It has the potential to be more dangerous than nuclear weapons. In case of the OpenAI, it was to have it not be a unipolar world where Google was at subsidiary, he'd mind, we control an overwhelming amount of AI talents and computers and resources, which then is somewhat dependent on basically how Larry Page and Sergey run and Eric Schmitt's colleagues actually go, because they've been through them, two out of three have control over health plan, so about super voting rights.
And, you know, it's quite a bit of a piece of some of the positives I have on Larry Page, where you know, you call me a species for being pro-humanity, and so I'm like, what side are you on there? Well, I think I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that, but I'm not going to be able to do that. I'm not going to be able to do that. I'm not going to be able to do that. So, that's the OpenAI was personally created as an open source nonprofit and now it's a close, it's a good to meet each of you who need a close, full match, for a profit AI. It is closed, and they are aiming to, I think, try to make $100 billion, I think, according to Sam Hallman, get $100 billion from somewhere for some vast amount of compute to create digital God. And, I'm probably old of the ways to store it in a common separated value file, by the way, so how digital God will be a CSV file. How do we import it? File that word God.
So, so anyway, so it's now open, so it's also very closely aligned with Microsoft, you know, Microsoft is really good. The open answers are running in Azure and Microsoft data centers. You know, so really what you have is, I think, they might be more controlled in open AI. They have access to all the source code, they have access to all the weights of the GPU for and future versions. So, they have all rights to this thing. At any point, really, they can cut up open AI. I don't think opening AI quite realizes that the penance on Microsoft, and even if Microsoft does break some contract, they'll just be tied up in litigation for years.
So, really, I can't just between Google and Microsoft. Google has mentioned that I could send about, you know, sorry, not caring enough about AI safety and good reason. And then Microsoft just is, I think, you know, a prophecy in the organization. And I think such is great, but I can't say like, you know, it would difficult to say that Microsoft has a has an amazing, crack record and moral decision making. So, diplomatic.
You know, so, so, so, okay, look, let's just, so, I think let's try to create a third company that is competitive. I do think that's this underrated from an AI standpoint, in terms of real world AI tells us it has the best thing real world AI. So, you know, hopefully between X AI and Tesla is kind of a third contender for visual super high.
Would you look, you've done, you open source your patents at Tesla. You are very pro open source, your source code at X. Would you ever considering releasing Dojo and FSD more as a platform substrate for everybody else? Or that's sort of off the table right now?
Well, I don't know that you're in the case of say Dojo or our inference hardware that's in the car, our goods, the current computer, which is actually a lot more compute the Dojo, by the way.
Yeah, we're because on a similar order of 4 million cars that have high speed AI and current computers in them. I like open sourcing chip designs doesn't mean you suddenly get that thing.
Yeah, so, you know, so, I suppose the software, but I think chip designs, it's the only one thing to actually use those chips or really, yeah, what would be someone that's willing to spend many billion dollars on a computer development.
So, anyway, I think in the case of, you know, Dojo's interesting, optimistic, really interesting.
所以,无论如何,我认为在Dojo的情况下,你知道的,它是有趣而乐观的,真的很有意思。
Anyway, I think just in general, Tesla is one of the world's leading AI companies. And in some respects, the leading AI company, when it comes to real world AI understanding the real world and actually reacting to that with self driving. And I think that will become part of the solution for AGI or general super intelligence.
So, if I'm, you know, you're crazy, the shareholders of Tesla can vote me out. You know, I have a, I don't know if it works to be, you know, I think moderately influential, but not enough to stay in, even if I'm doing crazy stuff.
I just want to FSD before we wrap, I'll let you go.
在我们结束之前,我只是想要完成自主驾驶功能,然后你可以离开。
We were talking earlier this year and said, Hey, maybe chat GPT 4.0 like moment for self driving was coming. And I've been playing with the beta and, yeah, how close does it feel to you? Because some of the rides it's been doing for me are pretty darn impressive.
The latest beta is pretty incredible. Yeah, it's pretty, pretty neat.
最新的测试版相当令人难以置信。是的,它相当相当不错。
You know, I used to love it on the highways and on the streets. I'd be like, OK, but now I'm using it increasingly on the streets. So, where do you, how do you feel about it right now? And I guess you made a lot of predictions on it over the years. But it does feel like it's getting pretty close.
Yeah, I think it's very close to, you know, being in a situation where, you know, if there's no key to a center intervention, that the probability of a safe journey is, is higher with FSD. And no supervision like you and a car seat to the car than if the post is driving.
We were very close to that. You know, those that have the steep beta, which can't really anyone get at this point.
我们离那很近了。你知道的,那些具有很高的 beta 值,目前几乎没有人能够获取。
So, why the miles we see driven under the FSD beta currently are much safer than the miles that are driving. So, that's a, you know, that's already a very good milestone.
But, you know, you can just see that it's getting better. But like if you compare the FSD beta today versus six months ago versus, you know, a year ago versus 18 months ago, it's really the improvement is dramatic.
And we've got the final piece of the puzzle, which is to have the troll part of the car transition from about 300,000 lines of C plus plus code to also your own network.
我们已经获得了最后一块拼图,就是将汽车的巨魔部分从大约30万行C++代码转换为您自己的网络。
So, you know, the whole system will be your own network. And then you can put your own photons into control down. Awesome.
所以,你知道,整个系统将成为你自己的网络。然后你可以控制自己的光子。太棒了。
Thanks for taking the time, buddy. Fly safe. And I'll see you shortly. Ladies and gentlemen, you on must.
感谢你花时间,伙计。安全飞行。我很快就能见到你了。女士们先生们,请上机。
Thanks, bud.
谢谢,兄弟。
We open source it to the fans and they just go crazy.
我们将它开源给粉丝,结果他们就疯狂了。
I'm going crazy. What, what, your winner? Fly.
我要疯了。什么,什么,你的赢家是谁?飞出去。
Bestest is all over. That's why a dog taking a mission right away.
Bestest is all over. That's why a dog taking a mission right away.
最好的已经结束了。这就是为什么一只狗会立刻接受一个任务。
I'm going crazy. We should all just get a win. We should have one thing huge or because they're all like this, like this like sexual tension that we just need to release.
