    it won’t be though. spacex tech is massively reliant on NASA. if they do it they’ll hurt spacex in the long run. which means they’ll probably do it because musk is a fucking moron.

      “… in the long run”

      These aren’t people who understand what “in the long run” means.

      Surely he’ll strip NASA, put the bits he wants up for sale, then buy them for cheap.

      Sure the best staff might leave, but he’ll probably keep enough of the organisation to get something out of it.

              Haha yeah, those bots are garbage. But the Figure 2 bots are already testing in BMW plants. And Elon won’t even have to threaten Open AI with regulation to get new tech. He can prolly just take from Boston Dynamics military contracts.
