Investors are having doubts about Elon Musk's grandiose ambitions

I feel like if they just expanded this logic slightly they would realize that data centers as an investment class are uninvestable.

masterful gambit, sir

Yet Mr Musk does appear to have lunar ambitions for Tesla’s humanoids. He outlined a “super sci-fi” future in which they would operate factories on the Moon building solar panels and radiators for SpaceX’s satellites. Humans may be the advanced guard. Ms Shotwell said SpaceX’s aim was to put “boots on the Moon” as early as 2028.

Do company executives really make these sort of claims with a straight face? More importantly, does anybody in the "public" really believe them?

Why do you think this is far-fetched?

I’m sitting here in my driveway in my Tesla Roadster after it autonomously drove me from Boston back home to NYC. My robot servants are folding the laundry

I agree, totally not far fetched

Seems like Starship has a ways to go before carrying human passengers?

> a ways to go before carrying human passengers?

SpaceX has safely flown 78 crewmembers from 20 countries across 20 human spaceflight missions using its Crew Dragon spacecraft since May 2020.

SpaceX, not Starship. While I don't agree with the “starship will never orbit” haters, the viewpoint itself is coherent.

Yes I know, but how do they plan to get to the moon?
