Elon Musk’s Telepathic Brain Chip ‘Neuralink’ Could See First Human Implant This Year

Posted by in categories: computing, Elon Musk, neuroscience

Elon Musk’s Neuralink technology will see its first human implant this year. If you’re excited to see how Musk’s brain chip will work on humans, we might find out very soon.

The brain-interface tech company was founded by Elon Musk in 2016 and its chip will finally be implanted into a human brain this year. In 2021, the implant was seen in action in a monkey who played MindPong. The monkey was able to play the game by simply thinking it, with help from Neuralink chip.

Tesla raises Full Self Driving software price to $12,000 in U.S., Musk says

Posted by in categories: Elon Musk, robotics/AI, transportation

Jan 7 (Reuters) — Tesla Inc (TSLA.O) Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk tweeted on Friday that the electric carmaker will raise the U.S. price of its advanced driver assistant software dubbed “Full Self Driving” to $12,000 on Jan. 17.

The 20% price rise comes less than two years since Tesla raised Full Self-Driving (FSD) prices to $10,000 from $8,000 in 2020.

“Tesla FSD price rising to $12k on Jan 17. Just in the US.” Musk tweeted.

Elon Musk’s Starlink & Google Partnership Will Change EVERYTHING

Posted by in categories: business, computing, Elon Musk, internet, satellites

The deal will involve SpaceX installing ground stations inside google’s data centers to link with Starlink satellites. This synergy will provide ultra-fast internet services to enterprise clients. We could start seeing the outcome of the partnership as early as this year, especially since Musk has promised Starlink would exit beta mode despite the size of googling this deal is enormous because it is giving an edge in its competition the software behemoth Microsoft and online retail king Amazon in the cloud computing market.

Google needs to diversify as quickly as possible because its advert business is no longer growing at the usual rate. The cloud is a way for Google to shore up its revenue to sustain its growth, so landing a client like SpaceX is a big deal for Google because its cloud computing service will be delivered to clients at high speed the first at Google data center to host a starling the base station is in New Albany Ohio followed by other data centers in the US. Still, ultimately most of google’s data centers worldwide would be connected.

Google and SpaceX had a bit of history back in 2015; the search giant invested 900 million dollars into SpaceX, which was meant to cover various technologies, including making the satellites themselves. Hence, it is natural that the two companies would do business together. The deal benefits all the parties involved, and Google brings its cloud services to more customers through a secure and fast internet network.

Tesla’s cameras-only autonomous system stirs controversy

Posted by in categories: Elon Musk, robotics/AI, transportation

As it pursues the goal of fully autonomous driving, Tesla has bet entirely on cameras and artificial intelligence, shunning other commonly used tools such as laser detection.

Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk has touted a system built around eight “surround” cameras that feed data into the auto’s “deep neural network,” according to Tesla’s website.

But as with so many other things involving Tesla, there is controversy.

This Compressed Air Grid ‘Battery’ Is an Energy Storage Game Changer

Posted by in categories: Elon Musk, energy, food, sustainability

Pumped hydropower is great. This method might be even better.


Two new compressed air storage plants will soon rival the world’s largest non-hydroelectric facilities and hold up to 10 gigawatt hours of energy. But what is advanced compressed air energy storage (A-CAES), exactly, and why is the method about to have a moment?

AI Robots Date Humans. Beyond Atlas And Ameca

Posted by in categories: Elon Musk, robotics/AI

Ameca’s incredible skills are part of a huge leap for AI Robots. The robot from Engineered Arts is a taste of the future Boston Dynamics and Tesla. Elon Musk is building a real Matrix, almost like the matrix movie.

We’re new to youtube, so comments and subs are really helpful.

The curious story of Elon Musk’s Tesla stock sales and SpaceX’s fundraising

Posted by in categories: Elon Musk, internet, space travel, sustainability

It looks like Elon is putting more of his money into SpaceX. This makes sense as he has tons of money and SpaceX seems to have more growth potential than Tesla because his Starlink and Starship will both be very hard for other companies to compete against. (Just the amount of capital it would take to make competing products is staggering.)

I’m not saying that Tesla won’t be worth $10 trillion one day, I’m just saying SpaceX has more growth potential. Elon seems to agree.


What’s Elon Musk doing with the billions he’s collected in the past two months from selling shares in Tesla?
