The world needs more oil and gas to deal with the energy shortages it is currently facing, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said at an energy conference in Norway on Monday, Bloomberg.
The comment might seem strange coming from a person who sells electric vehicles, battery packs, and solar roofing products. However, this isn’t the first time Elon Musk has made such a comment.

Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in category: Elon Musk

The billionaire owns a small three-bedroom house
Posted by Gemechu Taye in categories: Elon Musk, habitats, space travel
Billionaire Elon Musk is known for being frugal. In June of 2021, he tweeted about living in a tiny house, stating: “My primary home is literally a ~$50k house in Boca Chica / Starbase that I rent from SpaceX. It’s kinda awesome though.”
That home is so small that it does not even have space for his mom when she visits. As such, the matriarch has to sleep in the garage.

The Technological Singularity is Near
Posted by Dan Breeden in categories: Elon Musk, military, robotics/AI, singularity, space travel
This video will address the hypothesis that advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and neurotechnology could trigger a technological singularity. The singularity could involve the development of artificial intelligence (AI) that is superior to human intelligence, effectively blurring or perhaps removing the distinction between humans and machines.
There is no agreement on when artificial superintelligence will be achieved. Still, one thing is sure: we need to think about our collective goals before the alarming trend of technological singularity makes them irrelevant. Whether powered by AI or some other technical method, the singularity will result in a technological tsunami that will pose unprecedented challenges to human civilization and the physical world on all scales.

Elon Musk says remote workers are just pretending to work. Turns out he’s (sort of) right
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in category: Elon Musk
New data from Qatalag and GitLab puts a number on it: Knowledge workers waste an extra 67 minutes online each day doing menial tasks for the express purpose of proving to their managers and colleagues that they’re available and working.
It’s taking a strain. The survey polled 2,000 knowledge workers and found that more than half of them (54%) reported feeling pressure to show their online status by replying to emails and Slack messages, adding comments to Google Docs, or updating project management tools.
It’s a new twist in the developing saga of remote work, and it shows that escaping the culture of presenteeism isn’t as simple as escaping the (physical) office.
