Elon Musk: "Don't pursue money. Make useful products, and money will come as a consequence." A simple philosophy that has shaped some of the world's most ambitious companies.

LEGACY MEDIA TRIED TO SMEAR ELON AGAIN — AND HE SHUT IT DOWN In the Economist interview, the editor went straight to the usual playbook: “People say that you’re a racist.” Elon’s response was simple and factual: “My partner is half Indian, and I have four children with her. One of them was named after a famous Indian physicist. So I would say I’m not racist. And also, if you look at the people that are employed at my companies, we have senior executives of all races. I don’t think there’s any racism there.” Then came the follow-up: “Are you anti-Muslim?” Elon: “If people are coming to a country with antithetical views, I am against that. I’m against rape and murder. I’m against the imposition of rules and laws that are contrary to what we’ve come to accept in the West.” That’s it. No hate. No racism. Just a clear distinction between people and values. Yet legacy media still runs with the same tired narrative because it fits their script. They don’t want the nuance — they want the smear. Elon keeps pointing out the obvious: opposing certain cultural values that clash with Western norms is not the same as hating an entire group of people. The media refuses to acknowledge the difference. The more they push these accusations, the more transparent their bias becomes.

ELON JUST EXPOSED LEGACY MEDIA AGAIN In the latest Economist interview, the editor-in-chief tried the usual line: “People loathe you.” Elon’s response was perfect: “More people like me than don’t. Far more people hate you and the media than you realise.” That’s the quiet part out loud. Legacy media has spent years pushing distorted narratives, selective outrage, and outright misrepresentations about Elon — and it’s not working the way they think it is. People see through it. The constant framing, the loaded questions, the attempt to turn every achievement into a threat… it’s gotten so predictable it’s almost comical. Elon didn’t need a long speech. He just pointed out the obvious: the public’s trust in legacy media is collapsing, and they still act like they hold the moral high ground. The more they attack him, the more transparent their bias becomes.

ELON ON AI ACCELERATION “If you can’t beat them, join them.” Elon says every attempt he made to slow AI progress actually ended up accelerating it. His conclusion: all roads lead to acceleration. The only realistic option left is to minimize the probability of a bad outcome — not pretend we can stop the train. That’s why he founded xAI, and why he’s now pushing for rival AI labs to review each other’s models before release. The race is on. The question is whether we steer it wisely.

Elon Musk: Tesla’s Robotaxi Goal Is Speed — But Safety Comes First With Robotaxi, our goals are very ambitious, but we do need to be cautious about causing any accidents or causing any harm to anyone. Although there are, I think, 30 to 40,000 automotive deaths per year in the United States alone, most of those do not generate any publicity. You never really read about almost any of those. But if we injure even one person, it becomes a worldwide headline news story, and regulators will immediately clamp down on all our activities. And we don't want anyone to get hurt. So, we are scaling Robotaxi as fast as humanly possible, but while making sure that we do not harm anyone at all. Ideally, we don't even want to run over a pet. So, that's really the constraint: we want to go as fast as possible, but without causing harm to anyone.

Elon Musk: Tesla’s Mega Pods Could Transform AI Computing Everywhere We're also building out a mega pod design that has — because, for computers with x86, it's a very x86 computer with the Tesla AI computer. You know, it's got this visual Optimus in a box, a mega pod kind of like the Megapack packaging. So, we put a large number of four-plus x86 combos into a giant box, essentially. And these boxes can be placed anywhere in the country or outside the country. This allows us to scale AI compute using disaggregated electricity production. Again, there are lots of places all around the world, including Superchargers. I think we get something like seven gigawatts of power at our Superchargers. And we can place mega pods at many of these Superchargers and have distributed power for AI. So, I think that could be quite a big deal.

Elon Musk: Tesla’s Secret AI Chip Factory Could Change Everything That said, we expect to announce their location soon and provide more details about our plans in that regard, but we'll leave that to the product launch announcement. Rather than trying to squeeze it into an earnings call, I think this is a very big announcement and deserves to have its own spotlight, instead of being squeezed into an earnings call. But I do think this is going to be an amazing initiative, and a necessary one. Without it, we will be constrained in our ability to scale up mass production because we simply won't have enough AI chips. So, it's crucial to solve that. And we'll have to solve memory, logic, and packaging in order to scale. We'll leave the rest for its own announcement. We've placed equipment orders for our development fab in Austin. And that development fab, I think, is pretty cool because it's intended to have lithography mask production, logic, memory, packaging, and chip testing — all under one roof. So you can have a very fast iterative cycle, try out new chip designs very quickly, and see if they work. I don't think such a building exists anywhere on Earth. So this is really going to be super helpful as we try some exciting, adventurous, high-risk, high-payoff bets.

🚗 Just did a downtown San Jose drive with Dave from Redwood Fit on Tesla FSD 14.3.4. It handled the busy streets, intersections, and pedestrians really well — super smooth and confident with zero interventions. This version feels noticeably sharper in city driving. Grok even mapped the perfect route for us! If you’re in the Bay Area looking for great corporate fitness & wellness programs, check them out: Video shot on @Insta360 X5 and AcePro 2. Purchase here
