Inside West Point: The Future of Technology in Warfare with Mr. Elon Musk
West Point - The U.S. Military Academy ^ | August 2025

Posted on 02/08/2025 5:27:13 PM PST by Pollard

Kicking off Season 3, join us for an enlightening fireside chat on "Inside West Point: Ideas that Impact" with visionary entrepreneur Elon Musk. In this episode, Musk explores the intersection of advanced technology and modern warfare, focusing on the role of AI and drones in transforming the battlefield. He shares his insights on innovation, the existential risks of AI, and the future of autonomous systems in military operations. Musk’s unique perspective offers invaluable lessons for military and industry leaders, and anyone interested in the future of warfare technology.

(This episode was created from Mr. Musk’s visit to West Point in August, where he conducted a fireside chat with BG Shane Reeves as part of the Academy’s launch of its newest annual theme, “The Human and The Machine: Leadership on The Emerging Battlefield.” This year’s theme aligns education with the future battlefield, preparing cadets for emerging challenges to ensure that our military is the most lethal and effective in the world.)

Dude can’t even build a vehicle that has more than Zero resale value after 5 years.

I don’t think we need to have him involved in military equipment or doctrine. Anything more complicated than a rifle can be bricked by a mini-EMP device.

So have those astronauts been rescued yet?

I posted without comment other than the 41 minute video length so obviously, no replies as of yet has watched the video. I found it interesting but also a bit scary to learn about Musk’s thought process considering how much influence this Asperger’s man has on our world.

I also found it educational on how to think out of the box.

" Inside West Point: The Future of Technology in Warfare with Mr. Elon Musk "

Putting "Mr." in front of a name in the headline of a news story is prima facie ass-kissing.
