I just tweeted about a reference to Musk's grandfather in your Xwitter feed, and I now see you have it covered here in this great article. Andrew Hickey's recent podcast on the Grateful Dead (fascinating even if, like me, you you're not crazy about the band) spoke about it in passing and makes a bit of fun of Scott Adams as well, with insights on Silicon's Valley's technocracy ethos that's doing huge damage as it comes to roost,
I've been saving the email for this for days until I have the bandwidth for the visual clutter. Besides relational DBs, my forté is UI design. I'm of the less is more school. Will read if my tail holds out.
UAE Minister of Cabinet Affairs and Chairman of the World Government Summit (WGS), Mohammad Al Gergawi in a conversation with Elon Musk at the 2017 World Gov Summit, Elon says, "There will be fewer and fewer jobs that a robot cannot do better. But what to do about mass unemployment? This is gonna be a massive social challenge. And I think ultimately we will have to have some kind of Universal Basic Income [across the globe]. I don't think we're going to have a choice....These are not things that I wish would happen...these are things that I think probably will happen." hhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCoFKUJ_8Yo

Fascinating insights, thank you. This ideology is wild and I wasn’t aware of much of it
But I also think Musk is being more forcefully manipulated here than meets the eye. Remember Bezos was hacked by the Saudis or so he claims, causing the most expensive divorce in history. I think team Putin-MbS has some dirt or leverage on Musk and are bending him to their will, sometimes quite reluctantly, sometimes in agreement. He is being corrupted and abused, although he himself is an abusive tyrant. Thats how these goons machinations work. They align such personalities to do their bidding as they corrupt them and sink them deeper into a amoral hole of sociopathy. Trump, Barr, Manafort - all narcissistic jerk bullies - Musk too.

Objectivism recycled with added touches of tech. I want to read all on this important topic, Jim, but my bandwidth is stretched so thin I'll have to come back to this when my energy does. Good night, sweet prince.
