@Austen This is brilliant @Austen 👏 Help engineers at no cost, covert it through premium AI talent recruiting fees. I wonder what other industries this or a similar model might apply to now and in the future? 🤔
I see some people incorrectly claiming that the Tesla Semis 500 mile range isn't enough.
Average daily miles:
• Long-haul drivers: 400-600 miles
• Regional drivers: 300-500 miles
• Local/delivery drivers: 100-300 miles
Not every Class 8 semi runs near the full 80,000–82,000 lb limit. The Tesla Semi’s 500-mile range is based on an 82k gross weight, so carrying lighter loads, like 30k or 40k lbs for example, will extend range beyond 500 miles.
Longer routes are also sometimes shaped by FMCSA Hours of Service rules, which cap driving at 11 hours in a 14-hour window, meaning drivers typically wouldn't exceed ~600 miles per day anyway. Drivers must also take a 30-minute break after 8 hours, during which the Tesla Semi can recharge up to about 60% of its range at a Megacharger. The Long Range Tesla Semi will be good for longer routes, while the Standard Range with 325 miles of range will be great for more local/regional deliveries.
Transportation is the largest source of emissions in the U.S. at 28%. The Tesla Semi will not only save operators money over time, especially if you include state incentives, but the truck will be much better for air quality.
PepsiCo has been testing Tesla Semis for the past few years. They said that the drivers who operate the company's Tesla Semis have reported that they don't want to go back to driving a diesel truck.
@awjuliani This is a cool project Arthur! It would be great to use the same or similar visualization for other livability factors like walkability, safety, schools, jobs, park density etc. Could even do neighborhood level. Would be really helpful for people choosing where to live next!
Sustainability is no longer a moral debate.
@jbeano breaks down how it creates real business value through efficiency, resilience and better talent pipelines.

Naval Ravikant: “The future will be almost all startups”
“I firmly believe that the efficient size of a company is shrinking very rapidly, and so the future will be almost all startups.”
In the clip below from a 2012 interview, Naval speculates that information technology will reverse the centralizing force of economies of scale following the Industrial Revolution.
“I think the contract work trend is going to increase, and I think the size of your average company is going to decrease. I think we’re going to see more and more billion dollar businesses built by four or five people, and it’ll stay at that.”
He doesn’t think we’ll see many more companies like Facebook or Google with tens of thousands of employees:
“I think any entrepreneur worth their salt could today build Facebook with a few hundred people… Facebook and Google are in the situation that large companies end up in where the founders know that 80% of the people are not really needed, they just don’t know which 80%.”
@TDavisAAS@GreenPlusAnE@grumpyopa And the lack of understanding that many of not most parents aren't helping their kids or couldn't "pay for it all". It's emblematic of how out of touch the people in leadership are.
@stevehou@Jason Yes. Historical examples show macro conditions are usually the cause of populism, and get exploited by populists.
But is this good or bad? It's a mixed bag but can deliver the demanded structural changes IF populists aren't totalitarian or incompetent.

@Iamjaneezy@GadSaad Grok sees Duru's "unaccountable power" argument as a more common factor for historical societal downfall (~70%) vs Saad's "suicidal empathy" factor
For current US trends Duru's is a 6/10 risk vs 3/10 with other factors (govt, culture, climate) being 5/10

@farzyness@elonmusk Great Summary @farzyness! This should be the north star for our civilization. And an implied roadmap for AI entrepreneurs, with opportunities abound to create new solutions and startups along the way. 🌿🧠🤖📈☮️
@elonmusk Also, envisioning the optimistic future we want gives us something to build.
Simply wallowing in pessimism gives people nothing to work on, only things to tear down.

Entrepreneurship will be an enormous catalyst for solving our grand environmental & social challenges.
Tools like AI agents will democratize economic growth, especially for perennial learners.

Sustainable Abundance is the only viable path forward for humanity.
Unsustainable abundance slams us into an environmental brick wall.
Sustainable scarcity undermines social stability & liberties.
Thanks to @TheNavThethi for a great discussion below:

The future isn’t doom—it’s abundant.
AI can liberate us from scarcity… if we get it right.
I sat down with @AiSociallyConsc to talk #AI and our journey together on the road to #SustainableAbundance.
