Wizards, horses, flip phones and AI: Elon Musk's 10 most colorful quotes from Tesla's investor day
The electric-vehicle company's CEO also cracked a joke about charging, and discussed the limits and dangers of artificial intelligence, the inner workings of the human brain, and the headaches of scaling car production.1."There's a very wide range of technical expertise out there, from people who are level 9 wizards in the subject to people who do not do engineering at all."
3."Trivia point — what is Earth made of? By mass, it is made of iron more than anything else. Second, oxygen and then everything else after that. So basically, Earth is a muddy rust ball."Powerwall 5."People have run out of things to do with conventional cars so they just end up reshuffling the deck. There are hundreds of variants of cars on the road, and mostly they're variants for the sake of variants. Look at how things converged with the phone — there used to be hundreds of flip phones, now what do we have? It'll be like that."
7."The hard part is building the cars, and the entire supply chain that goes with the cars — this is a logistics challenge of extraordinary difficulty. All the things that have to go into the car have to scale with the car while everything is doing an exponential ramp. If you miss even one of those things, doesn't matter why — earthquake, flood, fire, revolution — any part of that supply chain gets interrupted, then you have a seizure.
