It's great that Elon has such ambitious plans, but as he keeps saying, he wants the future to look like the Culture in Iain M Bank's sci-fi series of the same name. If you read at least the first book of the series, you'll see that it's a Communist society run by AI's. I'm not really sure that's the kind of future I want to be living in. Elon's original plan just to make life multi-planetary was a much more palatable future.
Grift of the month. How can anyone take this seriously year after year? Didn't we get promised robots building colonies on Mars by now? Or at least Starship carrying a payload and not exploding?
