🚨 BREAKING: Elon Musk speaks from Starbase as SpaceX goes public, with the largest IPO EVER
"If people had told me this was going to happen [years ago], I would be like, man, you must be smoking some REALLY good crack because I think this company is going to fail!" 🤣
"I gave SpaceX less than a 10% chance of succeeding at all, to be clear. In fact, I told people this: I said, 'look, we're probably going to fail, but, you know, we should give it a try because if we don't, if if there's not a new company that enters space, we will never be a truly spacefaring civilization.'" 💯

🇺🇸 @elonmusk explains why @SpaceX is finally going PUBLIC: a massive growth phase.
The plan? Over 100,000 satellites in orbit, V3 birds with 100X the bandwidth, plus AI DATA CENTERS in space.
Profitable since 2015.
The growth phase is just beginning.
Our internal data shows Claude is accelerating AI development—a possible path to recursive self-improvement, or AI autonomously building a more capable successor.
It’s happening faster than we thought, and the implications deserve greater attention. https://t.co/OVVPJO7VQx
Oh great I love the idea that after a decade of founders, engineers, and investors lighting billions on fire to build AI, the plan is: ‘thanks, we’ll be taking 50% of that now.’ Peak startup risk, Soviet exit. 👍🏽🤣
@IterIntellectus Harnessing even a millionth of the Sun’s power, which is extremely difficult, results in an economic value far more than a million times than that of Earth’s current entire economy
