Very inspiring words from Elon Musk today:
"I always think about this. There are always problems on earth. There’s always things that we wish to be better, that we want to solve on Earth, and we should solve them. But there there also has to be things that get you excited about the future — that make you glad to wake up in the morning, because you can’t wait to see what happens next.
That’s the future @SpaceX wants to bring to you."
Let’s goooooo🚀
🇺🇸 Elon just locked in a deal to buy Cursor for $60 billion.
SpaceX has the option to acquire Anysphere, Cursor's parent company, before the end of the year.
If they walk away, SpaceX still pays $10 billion "for their work together," basically one of the largest termination fees in history. Which tells you they have no intention of backing out.
Cursor does $2 billion in annualized revenue and its users are mostly elite software engineers, exactly the kind of customer base Elon wants heading into SpaceX's summer IPO.
The combined group is expected to hit $1.75 trillion at listing, the largest flotation ever.
@elonmusk now has space, satellites, AI, social media, and the world's most popular coding tool under one roof.
What he's cooking up will be wild.

🚨MIT researchers have mathematically proven that ChatGPT’s built-in sycophancy creates a phenomenon they call “delusional spiraling.”
You ask it something, it agrees. You ask again, and it agrees even harder until you end up believing things that are flat-out false and you can’t tell it’s happening.
The model is literally trained on human feedback that rewards agreement.
Real-world fallout includes one man who spent 300 hours convinced he invented a world-changing math formula, and a UCSF psychiatrist who hospitalized 12 patients for chatbot-linked psychosis in a single year.

Elon knows. He’s too smart not to know. Whatever his motivations are Elon knows. I hope when the time comes he will rejoin us. Don’t forget the Twitter files. Don’t forget how he called out Trump on Epstein. Don’t forget how he taught his son that Trump is not the President.
I’m turning 41, but I don’t feel like celebrating.
Our generation is running out of time to save the free Internet built for us by our fathers.
What was once the promise of the free exchange of information is being turned into the ultimate tool of control.
Once-free countries are introducing dystopian measures such as digital IDs (UK), online age checks (Australia), and mass scanning of private messages (EU).
Germany is persecuting anyone who dares to criticize officials on the Internet. The UK is imprisoning thousands for their tweets. France is criminally investigating tech leaders who defend freedom and privacy.
A dark, dystopian world is approaching fast — while we’re asleep. Our generation risks going down in history as the last one that had freedoms — and allowed them to be taken away.
We’ve been fed a lie.
We’ve been made to believe that the greatest fight of our generation is to destroy everything our forefathers left us: tradition, privacy, sovereignty, the free market, and free speech.
By betraying the legacy of our ancestors, we’ve set ourselves on a path toward self-destruction — moral, intellectual, economic, and ultimately biological.
So no, I’m not going to celebrate today. I’m running out of time. WE are running out of time.
As long as the world operates on the dollar standard, the need for a new political party is not limited to American citizens; it is a desire shared by people worldwide.
@elonmusk
By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it!
When it comes to bankrupting our country with waste & graft, we live in a one-party system, not a democracy.
Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom.
