Elon @elonmusk ... check out americathinks.org ... we are building it here as fast as we can. Election-grade public polling for everyone!

Verified paper ballots.
How do you know a ballot is genuine? What is the origin of every ballot?

We need to have a national discussion. Elections must be publicly auditable so that the loser knows they lost. The current procedures and machines can’t do this audit. It is possible with new methods and equipment. It needs to happen.
I'm seeing an increasing groundswell on the Right saying the entire election was stolen. I'm also seeing analysts I respect saying that the voting shift was consistently demographic-based across the board, a trend which would not be possible in some sort of electronically manipulated election. I'm not saying voter fraud does not exist. It does. Alaska is an easy example. I only ask that you remember that the Color Revolution plotters expected to win the midterms, and expected to use Trump and the MAGA movement contesting the results as a "redline" that could be used to declare Trump "illegitimate" and overthrow him. That "redline" could occur anytime between now and January 3rd (the date the new Congress is seated). I'm not telling you not to look for voter fraud. I AM telling you to use good judgment and discernment and to realize that there are bad actors who may be stirring up some of these arguments as false flag ops. Please be discerning.

I am blown away by @Bot. Was in the shower, had an idea, and gave it to @Bot. After working some options, I now have a buildable design with all of the flow rates, materials, velocities, wear rates, power cost, lifetimes, and even a patent check! WOW. In 2 hours!

Looks impressive. I can’t wait to try it out on code.
Grok 4.7 is here. It's a notable improvement over Grok 4.6 at the same price and speed.

Tesla FSD - self driving 88% of the miles. It’s not just improving my driving, it is changing the way I do life. Thanks @Telsa @elonmusk
I think people are significantly underestimating just how much FSD has become a major driver of Tesla sales in North America. When I ask most people buying their first Tesla why they’re getting it, they now say: FSD. This wasn't the case even early this year. There has been a real shift these last 3-6 months in terms of awareness of this technology.

Distributed compute + immersion cooling is the unlock.
Consensus estimate is that ~15GW of AI compute produced in 2027 cannot be turned on in 2027. This is harder than just finding power, as you also need to build out all the transformers, wiring, liquid-cooling, (massive) chillers & complex networking. grok.com/share/bGVnYWN5_4f06…

Mysteries of the universe 🤪
Schrödinger's code 1. fable wrote it, it must be great. in fact, i had Sol, opus 5, and Grok all review it. 2. if i look at it, its horrible state changes based on observation

A win for election integrity. Now please finish the job.
🚨 In an apparent 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court paused a federal judge's order that blocked key parts of President Trump’s election executive order. A separate injunction still blocks the new USPS mail-ballot rules.

Texas my Texas. Take this election seriously.

Why can’t you and your colleagues just stay in Washington, and debate on the floor during “adjournment”? Show the people real leadership.
Earlier today, my colleagues and I were asked to grant unanimous consent to adjourn for the August State Work Period. I objected because I believe we need to stay and keep working. In response to my objection, I secured an agreement to vote on adjournment, and I’m working with my colleagues to tee up votes on a number of matters prior to any recess, including the voter ID portion of the SAVE America Act, a continuing resolution to fund the government through December 11th, and confirmation of Todd Blanche as Attorney General. Those votes will likely start happening soon—in the next few hours. Efforts to pass a budget resolution efforts will continue, and I will not stop pushing for election integrity measures to be included in them. A few of my colleagues and I just finished a good conversation with President Trump, who agrees with and supports this approach.

It is so easy to go along with the non-thinking crowd. Don’t do it!

LOL … me too. Everything breaks eventually
I've reached the age where I no longer know if I've sustained an injury or if that's just the way I am now.
