Musk's missed predictions
(discuss.online)
yeah but look at that hyperloop!
Full self driving in 2016, 2018, +++++
He said “we are making them now” when he announced his semi truck in 2017
And most recently he has said by the end of this year grok will be able to make a full story accurate movie, and specifically referenced The odessey
I want to see that nightmare fuel shit of a movie somewhat, and see how much it costs to generate 3 hours of movie in terms of energy and hardware depreciation. it would really demonstrate how far we are away from AI that is more than a plaything outside of a few special cases.
You can preemptively add "AI Datacenters in space", because that idea only shows that he has a very limited knowledge basis regarding physics in general and the limited ways of getting rid of heat when there's no medium to absorb it. He probably still thinks "Space is cold".
You forgot about his hyperloop predictions. And his starship predictions
Hyperloop was never physically possible
Dumb gullible politicians believed him
Afaik it was some trick to prevent a high speed rail way to be constructed, or something like that
I know this was from the autonomous Tesla predictions list, but this quote from August 2022 doesn’t age well either:
The two technologies I am focused on, trying to ideally get done before the end of the year, are getting our Starship into orbit
Maybe some of the fragments made it into a short term orbit? one time around the planet is enough for that lol
Maybe he's just a racist dick, that's all.
Fuck this guy, but tsla costs about $4k nowadays
