I had a patient today say to me that they wish they had a personal robot car to drive them around so they didn’t have to be stressed out in traffic. My response was that this already exist with Tesla full self driving. The patient was unaware of this technology and likely now will go test drive a car with FSD. It’s amazing how many people don’t know this technology exist. From my garage all the way to my office. It’s about 120 miles one way. Over the past two days I haven’t even touched the steering wheel once.

BREAKING: Elon Musk predicts at least 1 billion humanoid robots within 10 years and describes what life could look like when everyone has a personal robot. • “The 90% positive outcome is that everyone's got robots that are their buddies.” • “... take care of elderly parents or be a good guardian and watch over the children or be a teacher, like an individualized tutor to your child.” • “I think you'll see many companies where it's one person with hundreds, maybe thousands of robots, like physical robots as well as digital robots.” • “My prediction is that there will be effectively universal high income. In fact, it's not clear to me that money will even matter in the future.” • “... if you want a castle, you know, robots will build you a castle.” • “... the robot will be happy to work 168 hours a week, continuous.”

In the exclusive interview with CCTV Finance, Elon Musk shared an optimistic vision for the future of robotics: A future where everyone has a personal robot to care for aging parents, watch the kids, provide one-on-one tutoring, and tackle all sorts of daily tasks. In this future, a single person could oversee hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of physical robots and digital agents 😎 "My prediction is that within 10 years, there will be at least 1 billion humanoid robots; within 15 years, maybe 10 billion; and within 20 years, potentially 100 billion." If humanity actually scales to 100 billion machines, capturing even a fraction of that fleet transforms Optimus from a commercial product into the literal foundation of a post-scarcity civilization, multiplying global productivity by orders of magnitude 🤯

Elon Musk: Optimus Will Be Bigger Than the iPhone At Tesla’s 2025 shareholder meeting, Elon Musk positioned Optimus, Tesla’s humanoid robot, as the biggest product launch of all time, larger than smartphones in impact and scale. He claims it will have the fastest production ramp of any complex manufactured product, targeting one million robots per year initially and scaling to ten million. His vision: every human will want a personal robot, with multiple industrial units for every household. Musk argues Optimus will surpass the best human surgeons in precision and perform procedures beyond human capability. Tesla’s real breakthrough isn’t the car; it’s positioning itself as a robotics and AI company reshaping labor and healthcare.

As a lifetime retarded crypto investor I feel duty-bound to top blast and act as exit liquidity for all these upcoming tradfi IPOs The expected value is quite reasonable: If I’m right, I make money If I’m wrong, then I just need to wait a year or two - I’ll get UBI and a personal robot giving me reacharounds and snacks while some dude in a San Francisco broom cupboard has to remotely view my disgusting body in 12-hour shifts for training data Pretty good deal
