they're afraid of elon because he operates with a frightening level of agency and efficiency they would never. we need a thousand more elons tbh

Nothing @elonmusk has done has stopped anybody else attempting to do the same. So he is not hoarding any kind of power.

The only areas in which the operations of SpaceX impinge on others in a zero sum way are through things like spectrum use and access to launch sites like KSC - and in both cases they face proper legal regulation, and others have successfully got their share of the limited resource.

The handwringing about his supposed unilateral power ignores the fact that other people with plenty of resources could have done what SpaceX has done, but haven’t done so for various reasons that are nothing to do with SpaceX. Why is that?

reindustrialization is literally the easiest way to save america, technology, and ai in one shot
Lloyd Blankfein Verified account @lloydblankfein 2d
US industrial capacity has been eroding for decades, and with it the fortunes of our middle class and to an extent, our national security. Data center development and our leadership in AI can reverse that trend, finally. Current hysteria to block all projects everywhere is a gift to China.

50 years of promising free healthcare, housing and abundance, and the second something might actually deliver it, they want it banned

Top of the Democratic agenda on day 1 needs to be a pause on advanced AI development, regulation of this out of control industry, and a ban on artificial superintelligence.

"getting it manufactured still required several rounds of review and iteration"

yes, welcome to the real world. we could have solved rsi and it won't matter. the only thing that solves this will be factories.
OpenAI Verified account @OpenAI 4d
Two OpenAI team members worked with GPT-6 Astra to design a prototype device for talking to Codex in under a week, as a side project.

Astra designed the enclosure, circuit board, interface, and software. Getting it manufactured still required several rounds of review and iteration.
