.@elonmusk explains how xAI’s mission and SpaceX’s mission are intertwined:
“xAI’s mission is to understand the universe. What things are necessary? You have to be curious, and you have to exist.”
“You want to increase the amount of intelligence in the universe, and the probable lifespan of intelligence.”
“As a corollary— humanity also continuing to expand because if you’re curious, and trying to understand the universe, one thing you’re trying to understand is— where will humanity go?”
“Understanding the universe means you care about propagating into the future.”
