Elon has nearly 160,000 direct employees throughout his companies and supports almost 870,000 jobs. Over five years, based on conservative estimates, @elonmusk’s companies have injected $338 billion into the US economy. @Tesla makes the first and second most American made cars. @SpaceX made the first fully reusable rocket and the world’s largest satellite internet constellation. As Axios says: his “companies are central to America's technological and military power.” In the end, the only people the Democrats will hurt are the American people.

A battery cost $600 per kilowatt-hour. The materials it’s made of, according to Elon Musk, cost about $80. REPORTER: Where does that gap come from? ELON MUSK: Most people reason by analogy. They say batteries will always be expensive because they’ve always been expensive. That’s pretty dumb. REPORTER: Why? ELON MUSK: If you applied that reasoning to anything new, you’d never get to the new thing. You can’t say, “Horses are great, we’re used to them, and there’s no gasoline to buy, so nobody will ever want a car.” And people did say that. REPORTER: So how should you reason? ELON MUSK: From first principles, not by analogy. Normally we do something because it’s like something that was done before, or because other people are doing it. REPORTER: What are first principles? ELON MUSK: The physics way of looking at the world. You boil things down to the most fundamental truths and reason up from there. REPORTER: Why doesn’t everyone do that? ELON MUSK: Because it takes a lot more mental energy. REPORTER: Can you give an example? ELON MUSK: Batteries. Historically it’s $600 per kilowatt-hour, and they say it won’t get much better. I ask something else: what is it made of? REPORTER: And what is it made of? ELON MUSK: Cobalt, nickel, aluminum, carbon, some polymers for separation, and a sealed can. REPORTER: And what does that cost? ELON MUSK: At London Metal Exchange prices it comes to something like $80 per kilowatt-hour. REPORTER: So that’s almost eight times less. What do you do with that? ELON MUSK: Come up with clever ways to combine those materials into the shape of a battery cell. And then batteries can be much cheaper than anyone realizes.
ELON MUSK: “A conta de luz da IA é alta demais? Então, basta construir um data center no espaço” “Em vez de economizar energia na Terra, a ideia de se mudar para o espaço” REPÓRTER: “A IA consome uma quantidade absurda de eletricidade, né?” ELON MUSK: “É verdade.” REPÓRTER: “E isso vai aumentar ainda mais no futuro?” ELON MUSK: “Se a IA evoluir, a demanda por energia também vai crescer, provavelmente.” REPÓRTER: “Então a conta de luz vai ser um problemão!” ELON MUSK: “Por isso vamos usar o espaço.” REPÓRTER: “.... Hein?” ELON MUSK: “Vamos construir um data center para IA no espaço.” REPÓRTER: “Peraí, a gente tava falando de conta de luz, cara” ELON MUSK: “E é exatamente isso que eu tô respondendo.” REPÓRTER: “Por que raios no espaço, mano?!” ELON MUSK: “Porque dá pra usar energia solar.” REPÓRTER: “Energia solar a gente já usa aqui na Terra, né?” ELON MUSK: “Mas na Terra tem noite, não tem?” REPÓRTER: “É, tem sim.” ELON MUSK: “E a geração varia por causa do clima.” REPÓRTER: “Hmm, entendi.” ELON MUSK: “No espaço, ajustando a órbita, dá pra captar luz solar por muito mais tempo.” REPÓRTER: “Então você vai colocar painéis solares no espaço?” ELON MUSK: “Exatamente isso.” REPÓRTER: “Mas os computadores da IA não esquentam pra caramba?” ELON MUSK: “Claro que geram calor.” REPÓRTER: “No espaço não tem ar-condicionado, né?” ELON MUSK: “A gente usa dispositivos de dissipação de calor.” REPÓRTER: “Dispositivos de dissipação?” ELON MUSK: “Os painéis solares ficam virados pro Sol.” REPÓRTER: “Tá.” ELON MUSK: “Do lado oposto, colocamos equipamentos que liberam o calor pro vácuo do espaço.” REPÓRTER: “Entendi!” ELON MUSK: “É a radiação do calor pro espaço sideral.” REPÓRTER: “Então o resfriamento é de graça!?” ELON MUSK: “Não, ainda precisa de equipamentos.” REPÓRTER: “Que é que é isso?” ELON MUSK: “Mas dá pra criar um sistema bem mais eficiente.” REPÓRTER: “E aí, pra quando isso rola?” ELON MUSK: “Em 2 ou 3 anos, acho que o espaço vai ser o lugar mais barato pra rodar IA.” REPÓRTER: “... 2 ou 3 anos!?” ELON: “É o que eu prevejo.” REPÓRTER: “Rápido demais, cara” ELON MUSK: “O progresso da tecnologia é acelerado.” REPÓRTER: “Mas pra levar tudo de foguete, gasta uma grana preta!” ELON MUSK: “É aí que tá o pulo do gato.” REPÓRTER: “Como assim?” ELON MUSK: “Precisa reduzir drasticamente o custo de lançamento.” REPÓRTER: “Ah, sei...” ELON MUSK: “Se o transporte pro espaço ficar barato, as opções se abrem.” REPÓRTER: “Ou seja, foguetes e IA tão todos interligados!?” ELON MUSK: “É nesse futuro que eu tô pensando.” REPÓRTER: “Cara, essa visão já não é de humano da Terra” ELON MUSK: “Tem possibilidades fora da Terra também.”

Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris 🎼Our Shangri-La🎵 Real Live Roadrunning is a concert film recorded live on 28th June 2006 at the Gibson Amphitheatre in Los Angeles towards the end of Mark and Emmylous' tour in support of their critically acclaimed album, All the Roadrunning. Lyrics: it's the end of a perfect day for surfer boys and girls the sun's dropping down in the bay and falling off the world there's a diamond in the sky our evening star in our Shangri-la Get that fire burning strong right here and right now it's here and then it's gone there's no secret, anyhow we may never love again to the music of guitars in our Shangri-la Tonight your beauty burns into my memory the wheel of heaven turns above us endlessly this is all the heaven we've got right here where we are in our Shangri-la This is all the heaven we've got right here where we are in our Shangri-la.
