Elon Musk: We're in the Big Bang of the Intelligence Explosion

Elon Musk: We're in the Big Bang of the Intelligence Explosion.

“I feel like we're in the Big Bang of the intelligence explosion. We have courtside seats to the Big Bang of intelligence explosion. One thing's for sure, it won't be boring.

I think we should always consider that there's some chance of a bad outcome to try to protect against the bad outcome. We don't want to be complacent and say that everything's just going to be fine, that there's no chance of a bad outcome.

I think of this in movie terms. Are we in a Gene Roddenberry movie or a James Cameron movie? Which movie are we in here? And you could either have a Roddenberry or a Cameron outcome. I think in this case, we want the Roddenberry outcome.”
