“Work like hell. You just have to put in 80-100 hour weeks every week. This will increase the odds of success. If other people are putting in 40-hour work weeks and you’re putting in 100-hour work weeks, then even if you’re doing the same thing, you will achieve in four months what it takes them a year to achieve.”
— Elon Musk
When Elon Musk started SpaceX, a friend made him watch a compilation of rocket failures.
He knew the odds were against him, but he went ahead anyway.
Then Falcon 1’s first launch failed.
He tried again. It failed.
He tried again. It failed.
With SpaceX one failed launch away from collapse, Elon put everything on the line and tried once more.
The fourth launch reached orbit, and the rest is history.
This is why Elon Musk wins. Failure never convinced him to stop.
If there’s one person I’d trust to help set the safety guardrails for artificial intelligence, it’s Elon Musk.
His track record speaks for itself. He’s built companies that took on industries everyone said were impossible to disrupt, and he’s been warning about the risks of uncontrolled AI for years.
If the biggest AI leaders are serious about keeping this technology under human control, Elon needs a seat at the head of the table.
Put him in charge of the guardrails and make sure AI serves humanity, not the other way around.
