The media outlet described how Elon Musk had gleefully mocked the meltdown of the crypto exchange FTX only after having desperately asked Bankman-Fried to roll the $100 million stake he had owned for a few months into a privately held Twitter on May 5.
Elon Musk has been touting Tesla’s FSD Beta v11 for some time now, and it’s finally here. He says it will be ready for wide rollout before the end of 2022.
He is now the richest person in the world with a gap of a little over $10 billion.
Elon Musk, who broke records of personal wealth last year as the stock of his electric vehicle company Tesla soared, now has another record to his name. With Tesla’s stock price continuing its decline in 2022, Musk’s fortune has dropped by over $100 billion this year, Bloomberg.
Musk’s worth is mainly tied to his stock holding in Tesla, which according to recent estimates, now stands at around 14 percent. The CEO began offloading Tesla stock last year as the stock price soared and reached an all-time high of $402.
Twitter offices were abruptly shut down on Thursday after hundreds of employees signed off from the company after refusing to comply with Elon Musk’s ultimatum.

Former President Donald Trump’s Twitter account has been reinstated following a permanent ban in January 2021.
On Friday, new Twitter owner Elon Musk posted a poll asking if Trump should be allowed back on the platform. Just over 15 million people voted, with 51.8% voting in favor of reinstating Trump on Twitter.
As of July 2022, when Twitter filed its last quarterly earnings report before going private, the platform has about 237.8 million monetizable daily active users. Yet when Musk’s impromptu poll ended on Saturday with a small fraction of the user base taking part, Trump’s account was unbanned.
How will transportation look like in the future? In today’s video we take look into the Future of Transportation and explore some amazing technologies that will revolutionize how we travel in the future. There has been no denying that for several years in the past, the world has been undergoing massive changes, thanks to the advancement in technology. However, when it comes to transportation, the changes have not been that large. Transportations method such as cars, trains, ships, and planes have improved somewhat in functionality over time, but since their creation, they have in large part stayed the same.
In this video, we will unveil some amazing future transportation technologies that without a doubt will absolutely blow your mind!
The technologies we look at in today’s video include Earth-to-earth rockets, which will let you travel from one side of the earth to the other in less than 1 hour. This technology utilizes the famous Starship from Elon Musk’s SpaceX. We then move on to Hyperloop Systems, which is a cutting-edge new technology that makes use of a vacuum-sealed tube to send passengers or freight at high speeds. This concept was also introduced by Elon Musk, but through the company ironically named as The Boring Company. Further, we explore Fully Autonomous Vehicles, and in more in depth — into the various level of autonomation available today and what will be there in the future.
The video also covers Flying Taxis and Hypersonic Air Travel. The flying taxis, like the ones being constructed by Volocopter, is a new transportation method that could take the world by storm in the future. The same goes for hypersonic air travel that will let passenger again take to the sky in hypersonic aircraft similar to the Concord in the past, only much safer and considerably faster.
Elon Musk posted pictures with engineers at Twitter’s San Francisco headquarters, saying they were leaving after the billionaire asked some employees who had not resigned to meet with him.
