(2:47) Optimus: Progress and potential, the "hands problem"
(12:20) Tesla: AI5 chips, impact on FSD
(16:50) SpaceX: Vision for Starlink-enabled smartphones, $17B spectrum deal, Starship update
(26:16) xAI: Next-gen Grok models, Colossus 2, scaling laws, "Grokipedia"
(31:29) Evolving alongside AI, implosion of the West, the religion vacuum
(37:36) Understanding the universe, going to the Moon, what happens on Mars?
This is one of the few times I've listened to an entire video from Marcus House; yeah, his voice lacks euphony, but most of the problem is that his videos are long and rambling. This one's much much better than his usual.
SpaceX Just Revealed the Plan for Starship Flight 11! Not only has Booster 15 already had its static fire, We already know a lot of what is coming in Flight 11 thanks to Bill Gerstenmaier. This will be the last Block 2 booster to fly. Booster Ship 38 up top. We’ve got Falcon 9 launches, a $17B Starlink spectrum deal, SDA Tranche 1, Nusantara Lima, NASA Dragonfly updates, Perseverance Mars findings, and even Stoke Space Nova progress. Strap in, it's another big one!SpaceX Just Revealed the Plan for Starship Flight 11! 🚀 | 21:33

Looks like a section of copper pipe and a roman candle. Nice!
Yeah. I’ll be barbequeing right after the fireworks.
The version 3 sats *could* have gone up on a Falcon 9, but in smaller numbers than will (oh really? 😎) be possible with the Starship — but the Starship will also be the Moon lander and ultimately the Mars colonization ships, which makes that system the priority.
Also Musk is really focused, IOW, stubborn. Bullheaded, even.
The latest F9 launch was I think the 516th, with 153 this calendar year (!). About 70% of all the launches from that facility in California have been SpaceX’.
But the colonization will require robust reusability, and about 1000 ships. Mind boggling.
Musk in this podcast just said that the phones will arrive in market quantities in about two years.
One of the questioners is a total moron.
Way cool - thanks for sharing.
Virtual meetings will (maybe already have) replace in-person biz meetings before that, so there will probably be a pivot away from that. Plus, colonization likely will soak up all the capacity. The only real emerging market on Earth is the US, imho.
There is only one version 2 Starship and booster remaining before version 3 Starship. Starship 3 will be a complete redesign with Raptor 3 engines, and which will not be without hiccups. V3 will do 100tons to LEO.
There was no mention of Starship refueling, nor of the lunar program or Mars program in any respect.
Grockipedia may be coming - like Wikipedia without the falsehood, half-truths, and including any missing info.
AI hardware scales logarithmically ... 10X more compute [ AI data centers like Colossus ] will double the intelligence [ from 100 IQ to 200 IQ ]. AI will continue to scale to the power of the Sun, and then to the power of the Galaxy ... Kardashev scale 2 and 3 civilizations [ we are not even to a 1 ].
Musk says he thinks by next year AI will be as smart as any human ever and by 2030, AI will be smarter than the sum of all humans. This, as the human population continues to decline and human intelligence with it. Human intelligence continues to scale up as the population increases, but with population declines, it is decreasing. “The actions of the West are indistinguishable from suicide.”
As long as people are optimistic about the future things will progress upward [ cancelling Apollo took Hope from people worldwide ]. Having a child is an act of optimism about the future. If a person or a civilization is not optimistic about the future, it leads to suicide by the individual or civilization [ huge applause here ]. “If you take away religion, you actually get something worse than what was there before. Replacing religion with dystopian de facto religions that are very self-destructive.”
“What we need is a revival of religion or a coherent philosophy that people can get excited about ... for [ Musk ] its a philosophy of curiosity. To know what’s going on [ in the universe ] we mush have an increase in the scope and scale of consciousness. We must grow and expand humanity, like going to other planets and to the stars, meeting other civilizations, to even ask the questions we should ask about the Universe”
