A leading expert in socially responsible technology innovation Dr Andrew Maynard told us “I think Musk’s overreaching and he probably knows it.
”That said, Elon Musk has got a track record of doing things that other people said can’t be done. So I think that this is going to be an interesting space because of that… [But] I think we’re a long way from understanding how this works.
”Even with Elon Musk’s system you have around ten thousand electrodes. There are billions of neurons in your brain. It’s a needle in a haystack”.
First and foremost, I would likd to reiterate that Elon Musk is not motivated by money. Elon Musk uses his wealth to make a difference to mankind. Yes he makes billions (and deservedly) but he invests his billions for other projects too. From Tesla to Neuralink; from Starlink to The Boring Company. And for me the ever exciting SpaceX. My only wish is I live long enough to witness his many inventions and projects.
Four months ago when I did the video below and predicted that Elon Musk would be the World’s First Trillionaire, most people laughed and ridiculed the video especially as at that time Elon was only the 35th Richest Man in the World with a net worth of around the $30 Billion mark.
Fast forward four months later, Elon has added another £57.2 Billion to his net worth. And from 35th to 4th richest person in the world.
Imagine being the world’s first Trillionaire overcoming Jeff Bezos. What further projects will Elon do to advance the development of mankind. I for one, can’t wait.
Elon Musk has led Tesla to successfully pioneered the electric car. Will Tesla also propel Elon Musk as a potential candidate for the position of the world’s first trillionaire.

Last week there were several reports that people who wanted to see the launch of the SpaceX clicked on videos that looked official and that they were posted by seemingly legitimate YouTube channels with hundreds of thousands of subscribers and were found with messages from “Bitcoin giveaway” urging them to send Bitcoin for double cash back, a common scam tactic. Today Jon Prosser reports that something similar is happening on his channel.
Tesla’s highly-anticipated Battery Day is still several weeks away, but CEO Elon Musk appears to have started posting cryptic teasers about some of the innovations that would be introduced at the event.

Ever the internet’s resident meme lord, Elon Musk recently posted a photo of Herbert Ruggles Tarlek, Jr., a character on the television situation comedy WKRP in Cincinnati, which ran from 1978 to 1982. The character was noted for his loud plaid suits, which were usually dominated by bold colors and patterns. Musk’s tweet noted that “One day soon, I will wear this outfit.”
A full-scale prototype of the huge Starship rocket SpaceX says will fly people to the moon and Mars left the ground for the first time Tuesday in South Texas, flying to an altitude of roughly 500 feet before settling on a nearby landing pad.
