Elon Musk is a bada$$

Hmmm just figured there was because most of the stuff going on post Covid has been spurred on by some kind of incentives. A lot of it was approved pre-uncle_joe.

Oh trust me there is, it’s just buried a little deeper right now, dig and follow the money…

Yeah, until that ‘infinite robot sandwich’ glitches and starts throwing mayo all over the kitchen! Sure, robots might help with chores, but I’ve seen I, Robot—I don’t need my fridge plotting against me while I’m making toast

This ... Women are gonna look like SAINTS to deal with before this whole AI thing is over.

Exactly. I can pull up to a dealership, go into the service department, tell them my truck is missing and they can look up my name, and in about two minutes tell me which cylinder is missing and the probably cause.
Been there and done that in Bozeman Montana in 2021.

They know so much more

So I read today, that KIA is having another issue with their newest models. If one knows the tag number and VIN, they can log on to the KIA app, unlock the doors and start it remotely.
There is a group of good hackers that go around and try to defeat systems so the app developer can put in a fix. They caught it before the bad hackers did so hopefully a patch will come out to the KIA app to fix that issue.
All the new vehicles are a rolling connection.

I took a college class with a textbook titled "Ethical Hacking". Every time I carried the textbook around, someone would notice the title and say, "Is that possible??"

Yeah. Ethical hacking is a thing. Security companies make a lot of money doing it. And companies pay a lot of money to get hacked.

Elon has been successful, even against this hurricane level headwind.

Imagine if government didn’t interfere, stifle and line their own pockets with tax money from innovation and progress.

Back before I retired, we worked with ABB to develop a new software for our control systems at the power plant. One of their programmers and I became friends. When we were in Cleveland at their HQ for training on it, found out he was part of a group of good hackers that met in a building they rented.
The place looked like a data center with all the servers and computers. They actively searched out hackers, hacked into their accounts and killed their computers with electronic "bullets".
The folks in that group were geniuses at ABB and took those skills out to do good.
