ANTONIO GRACIAS on @SpaceX: βWe have 20,000 people here. They're some of the best engineers in the world.
βAnd what we're building is the entire stack from, energy to compute, to launch to orbital compute.
βWhat an investor is buying today, we've been buying for really 20 years β is the ability to help make the future is being part of this extraordinary company.β
Capitalism is awesome.
- Elon starts a risky rocket company in 2002.
- It nearly dies multiple times.
- Venture capital and founder persistence keep it alive.
- Eventually, things start to work, and value gets created: satellite internet, cheaper space transportation, and an entire private launch industry.
- It employs tens of thousands of people.
- Todayβs IPO makes many of those employees rich and rewards the founder as the first trillionaire.
- Some of those employees will take that money and knowledge and start their own companies.
- Flywheel continues. Those companies will raise capital, hire people, and build useful things.
The whole pie grew. Nothing was zero-sum. More jobs, more economic activity, more useful products. π
@googrish Something I'm curious about, I get you gain cost and speed advantages from being able to use your own model, but are there also performance improvements in comparison to a smaller closed models like Haiku or GPT-mini?
@DBredvick@yongfook Still a cool, creative idea.
I recently experimented with this concept by creating a "dynamic" to-do app. You can type in a feature, and it'll build it for you with a cloud agent and then auto-deploy to Vercel.
