This 7-minute exchange between Elon Musk and Joe Rogan is quietly one of the most important conversations of the decade.
Elon lays it out plainly:
AI is a “supersonic tsunami” already erasing every purely digital job—coding, emails, spreadsheets, customer support—faster than any shift in history.
What survives longest? Anything that moves real atoms: welding, plumbing, electrical work, cooking, farming, building. Hands-on stays human.
Then he drops the line that stops you cold:
“In the best future, work becomes optional. We don’t get universal basic income… we get universal high income. Abundance so extreme that anything you want costs almost nothing and poverty effectively disappears.”
He compares it to the 1900s when entire skyscrapers were filled with human “computers” doing math by hand—then digital computers arrived and those jobs vanished overnight… while the world exploded with new opportunity.
This isn’t sci-fi. It’s the trajectory we’re already on.
Watch these 7 minutes. It’ll change how you see your career, money, and the next 20 years.
@TheNotoriousMMA Irish Americans are shocked to hear what is happening in Ireland. It’s hard to believe.
Thank you Conor for bringing attention to this travesty.
God Bless Ireland
Godspeed Conor!
@DataRepublican@DOGE_GSA This is really disheartening. What is the point of starting a legitimate business when you can bill the Government for millions/billions for literally nothing?
@MattWalshBlog Thanks, Matt. I started watching The Brutalist five minutes ago and just happened to see your post. I promptly changed the channel and watched a rerun of Friends instead; you saved me three hours of my life. It's much appreciated.
@FergusPower1@MaryLouMcDonald@realDonaldTrump I know I have asked about this before, but where is Bono? He seems to be saving the world, and I have no doubt he can spare some time to help his fellow countrymen.
@bonoadamedge@BonosBible I am 30 plus shows as well. Stopped at the Joshua Tree Anniversary Tour.
Never felt right seeing him palling around with Clinton, Blair and Gates.
Cheerleading the Ukraine War and open borders.
Watching his homeland go to shit.
What happened to him?
