Speaker 1: Now, I'm sure we can do a better welcome than
Speaker 1: that to Elon Musk in saud Arabia. There you go,
Speaker 1: that's the spurret. Thank you, Aylon, my dear friend. We're
Speaker 1: honored to have President Trump. We're honored, under the sponsorship
Speaker 1: and guidance of His Royal Highness to celebrate a US
Speaker 1: Saudi and a Saudi US relationship that is ninety two
Speaker 1: years old about how we move from an oil based
Speaker 1: economy to an innovation based economy powered by wonderful technologies.
Speaker 1: That definitely you're one of the pioneers in this industry.
Speaker 1: We just showed to His Royal Highness some of your
Speaker 1: Optimist robots and to President Trump.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about that. Tell me about them. Yes, So
Speaker 2: we just.
Speaker 3: Showed several of our Tesla Optimist robots to His Highness
Speaker 3: and President Trump, and I think they were very impressed.
Speaker 3: In fact, one of our robots did the Trump Dance,
Speaker 3: which I think was pretty cool. Y yeah to YMCA,
Speaker 3: So yeah, robots can dance, they can walk around, they
Speaker 3: can interact. I think we're headed to a radically different world.
Speaker 3: I think I think a good world, an interesting world.
Speaker 3: My prediction actually for humanoid robots is that ultimately there
Speaker 3: will be tens of billions. I think everyone will want
Speaker 3: to have their personal robot. You can think of it
Speaker 3: like as though you had your own personal C three
Speaker 3: PO or R two D two or even better, then
Speaker 3: who wouldn't want to have their own personal C three
Speaker 3: PO R two D two. That would be pretty great.
Speaker 3: And I also think it unlocks an immense amount of
Speaker 3: economic potential because when you think of like what is
Speaker 3: the output of an economy, it is productivity per capita
Speaker 3: at times population or capita. The Once you have humanoid robots,
Speaker 3: the actual economic output potential is tremendous. It's really unlimited. Potentially,
Speaker 3: we could have an economy ten times the size of
Speaker 3: the current global economy where no one wants for anything.
Speaker 3: You know. Sometimes in AI they talk about universal basic income.
Speaker 3: I think it's actually going to be universal high income,
Speaker 3: where anyone can have any goods or services that they want,
Speaker 3: you know. A science fiction book recommendation that I have,
Speaker 3: which I think is probably the best envisioning of an
Speaker 3: AI future is the Culture Books by Ian Banks, very
Speaker 3: highly recommended for a non dystopian view of the future.
Speaker 2: Now, there obviously are some risks.
Speaker 3: You know which illustrate perhaps the if we don't do
Speaker 3: this right, you know, you could have like a James
Speaker 3: Cameron sort of movie, you know, Terminator, if we don't
Speaker 3: want that one, but having sort of a star Trek
Speaker 3: future would be great. We we're out there exploring the stars,
Speaker 3: discovering the nature of the universe and a level of
Speaker 3: prosperity and hopefully happiness that we can't quite imagine yet.
Speaker 3: So I'm very excited about the future, and I'm very
Speaker 3: glad to be here. Thank you for having me.
Speaker 1: It's an absolute pleasure. And His Royal Highness was talking
Speaker 1: to you about his vision and his dream to increase
Speaker 1: productivity for the Kingdom of Saud Arabia and power up
Speaker 1: the region and the whole world with robotics, but also
Speaker 1: on robotaxis.
Speaker 2: So how are we doing on robotaxis?
Speaker 3: Yeah? So really you can think of a car or
Speaker 3: future cars as being robots on four wheels, and you know,
Speaker 3: I think it'd be very exciting to have autonomous vehicles
Speaker 3: here in the Kingdom.
Speaker 2: Indeed, if you're amenable.
Speaker 1: You heard it, hear from El he's bringing his Robotaxi
Speaker 1: to the Kingdom.
Speaker 2: He has another announcement that he.
Speaker 3: Yes, exactly so, and I'd also like to thank the
Speaker 3: Kingdom for approving Starlink for maritime and aviation.
Speaker 2: Use thank Maritime and Aviation. There you go, there you go.
Speaker 3: So, yeah, so you're going to bring.
Speaker 1: Us robots to help us increase our productivity, robotaxis to
Speaker 1: make sure that our cars and assets turn into a
Speaker 1: cash generating unit and start Link start Link to reform
Speaker 1: our aviation and maritime.
Speaker 2: Yeah, talk about x AI.
Speaker 3: Absolutely, but I should want you to mention also something
Speaker 3: that may be worth considering is tunnels.
Speaker 2: The Boring Company.
Speaker 3: I have this company called the Boring Company, which sounds
Speaker 3: kind of boring, but it's it's it literally bores tunnels
Speaker 3: and actually tunnels. In order to solve traffic, you really
Speaker 3: need to go three D with roads, and by using tunnels,
Speaker 3: you can essentially create create like like a wormhole, like
Speaker 3: like a warf tunnel from one part of a city
Speaker 3: to another and alleviate traffic. And we've actually already done
Speaker 3: this proof of concept in Vegas. So they're working tunnels
Speaker 3: in U in Las Vegas that you can use where
Speaker 3: that'll just it feels like teleporting for one part of
Speaker 3: Vegas to another. So I always say that. You know,
Speaker 3: my joke is like tunnels are underappreciated. You know, it's
Speaker 3: a bit of a I don't always a hit, but
Speaker 3: so yeah, and then XAI is just trying to solve
Speaker 3: general purpose artificial intelligence. The goal with XAI is to
Speaker 3: have a maximally truth seeking AI, and it's important to
Speaker 3: be maximally truth seeking AI in order to understand the universe.
Speaker 3: So the goal of XAI is understand the universe, to
Speaker 3: understand that, you know, you know, what is out there,
Speaker 3: where's the universe going, where did it come from? What questions?
Speaker 3: In fact, I think maybe the biggest thing is what
Speaker 3: questions do we not know to ask? Like, once you
Speaker 3: know the question, the answer is usually the easy part.
Speaker 3: So the goal of XAI is helped understand the universe.
Speaker 3: And yeah, that's the goal, and to help people answer
Speaker 3: any questions along the way, of course, But I mean
Speaker 3: that's my philosophy. My philosophy is a one of curiosity,
Speaker 3: just trying to understand the nature of reality.
Speaker 1: So I know you had a long day, but we
Speaker 1: also have the Honorable President and his Royal Highness mus
Speaker 1: the hitting.
Speaker 2: The stage soon. So this is a historic.
Speaker 1: Day, a partnership about how we could join hands together
Speaker 1: as we have joined hands in the past ninety two
Speaker 1: years on building a factor based economy to help the
Speaker 1: world and power up twenty percent of the energy mix,
Speaker 1: which is very critical today to the AI intelligence age,
Speaker 1: the digital age and how we have reformed and with
Speaker 1: the intelligent age. And we could not be more appreciative
Speaker 1: of having a lifetime partner and a friend like you
Speaker 1: Elon to the Kingdom, joining hands on
