Anybody notice how fundamentally different Elon’s vision of the AI future is?
While Sam Altman and Dario Amodei keep selling humanity fear......your job is gone, AI will overpower you, everything is an existential risk.....while chanting “AI safety,” racing for more power and lobbying governments for restrictions that could effectively choke off open-source AI for everyone else....
Elon keeps showing people a future actually worth wanting
• Abundance of goods and services
• Universal high income
• Intelligence available to everyone
• AI relentlessly pursuing truth
• Huge support for open source
• Work eventually becoming optional
• Capabilities for humanity that were once unimaginable
This isn’t some new turning point for Elon. This optimism has always been at the core of what he is building toward
He has warned about AI risks for years. Probably more than anyone actually
That concern is also part of why he started OpenAI as a nonprofit built with one goal of making advanced AI benefit humanity
But he never made fear the vision
His vision is that if we get AI right, humanity becomes dramatically more prosperous, intelligent and capable than ever before
Being cautious matters
But people don’t need endless predictions about everything AI will take away from them
They need someone showing them what the future can give them
That’s the difference with Elon
