dude is spending a billion ++ on this project. His own money..
What if anything in your life would you be willing to spend a billion dollar or more on to see it happen?
or maybe to scale it down what would you believe in so muc that you would leverage your house and everything you have to the point where everything else is in danger or suffers?
This way way smarter than you super richer than you guy says he is willing to destabilize his whole empire because he see a danger in working with the top/closest AI computers there are on the planet. and he also sees that our 'safety' will come in the way on being able to communicate on a scale equal to or greater than what we have created.
That's not what I asked. How do you know that you aren't gullible?

Elon Musk is a business man.
He knows fuck all about AI.
I strongly disagree. He's a good businessman, but he clearly cares more about the scientific and engineering aspects of his work. His goal, ultimately, is to advance humanity. IMO, he only excels in business as much as he needs to get proper public and private funding for his ideas. He's a good businessman... but definitely not a great one. Tesla isn't exactly a goldmine for investors. It's a volatile stock. But they're investing in him and his ideas. They're investing in Elon himself.

Believe me, he knows fuck all.
