#ElonMusk talks robotics! :=D

https://youtu.be/0OXmA2gvfso?t=46 (cued up to the following exchange between Elon Musk and some noname techbros)

"Physical robots, I, I, I call Optimus the infinite money glitch, uh, because, um—"
"—you can use them to make more Optimuses."
"Yeah. Um. Y'see, like, like, mm, humanoid robots will improve, um, as, w-w-well basically be three exponentials...t-th-three things that are growing exponentially multiplied by, uh each other—"
"—yes—"
"—um, recursively. So, you're gonna have, um, ex-uh-exponential increase in digital intelligence, exponential increase in th-the chip capability, the AI chip capability, um, and, uh, ex-exponential increase in the electro-mm-mechanical dexterity. Uh, the usefulness of the robot is roughly those three things multiplied by each other. But then the robot can start making the robots. So you have a recursive multiplicative exponential...um...this is...supernova."

(you can kinda hear one of the techbros suppressing a giggle during this)

@alyx_woodward yeah, all the resources to make new optiumuses are "infinite" and "free"...... 🙄

@chewie oh I know, isn't it fucking ridiculous? he says "exponential" like it's a magic word
