This is one of my favourite things I have seen recently. The price of oxygen on Earth is very low, the price of oxygen on the Moon is very high, the cost of transporting oxygen from Earth to the Moon is also very high. Too high. The solution is to make oxygen on the moon. If you’re looking for an engineering problem to apply yourself to, what you should start with is a price signal. Where do you see a big pricing dislocation? This can be a geographic dislocation, a temporal dislocation, an assembly dislocation, a process dislocation, an information dislocation, there are many things like this. You then take the pricing disparity and you multiply it by the applicable volume to calculate the unrealised value. If you bridge the dislocation you capture some of the value, usually 80% of the value goes to the user, 80% of the remaining 20% goes to your costs, and the last 4% of the unrealised value is the available profit. This is a crude rule of thumb, but it broadly works out this way. Why do you need this price signal? It tells you the resource constraints that you must operate inside of, to deliver your solution. It tells you the profit that you might expect to make, if you realise the unrealised value. Making oxygen on the moon is a good example of this, but so is drilling oil, or fabricating microprocessing chips. So you don’t really need to solve some hypothetical untested problem. The world is full of very real problems, with very calculable opportunities to realise value and make some money. An industrialist is really just an engineer who gets their technical requirements from capital markets. Please steal this and apply it. We will all benefit.

Melt. Extract. Breathe. Repeat. 🧑‍🚀 From Moon dust to fresh air, our Air Pioneer technology turns lunar regolith into breathable oxygen, ready for astronauts returning to the Moon. At our Space Resources Center of Excellence in LA, we developed a reactor (left) that melts regolith simulant and passes a current through it to release oxygen and other gases. The gases flow into the purification system (right) and emerge as medical- and propellant-grade oxygen. A flight-qualified Air Pioneer at this same scale could provide the first breath of life for a sustainable Moon base. 🌕

Next week I am going to be in Berlin presenting a talk on why I think manual (no-spec) prompting in your terminal gives you better results in building software than having long complex systems I’d also love to meet if any mutual is in Berlin then merantix-aicampus.com/event/prompt-2…

He's trying to also wash the XAI brand with SpaceX, not just their balance sheet. Absolute incredible level of operating markets.

@babochenko Not exactly, but close enough I guess. More or less. It stores the reflection of value. Get it?

Money needs to be Bad Money, so you spend it, but don't hold it. Money needs to be Good Money, so you can exchange it the next day. That's what Money is. It cannot be both asset and money. Money is Money. Not a store of value. Get this in your head!

There are things that until a few years ago were determining deterministically your life trajectory: Your mental abilities, your skills, your wealth, your health and age. The age of AI shatters all these certainties. You *cannot* have any certainty about your life trajectory.
