Most people misunderstand Elon's ultimate goal He is trying to make our entire civilization win. To view it as anything less is just shortsighted Elon winning means humanity winning While most people are stuck in a zero-sum mentality, he operates with a "grow-the-pie" mindset You can see all the things he built till now and also his future plans He started working on things long before it was popular or considered possible: • Zip2 & payment systems • Electric vehicles & batteries • Pure vision self-driving • Humanoid robots • Starlink Internet • AI (OpenAI) • Neuralink • The Boring Company And the future is even bigger: 1TW compute clusters, space datacenters, lunar bases, mass drivers on the Moon, and making life multi-planetary... basically driving humanity toward becoming a star-faring civilization He consistently takes on the world’s hardest problems to push our civilization forward... He freakin makes sci-fi real

I'm lucky enough to have a great doctor and access to excellent Bay Area medical care. I've taken lots of standard screening tests over the years and have tried lots of "health tech" devices and tools. With all this said, by far the most useful preventative medical advice that I've ever received has come from unleashing coding agents on my genome, having them investigate my specific mutations, and having them recommend specific follow-on tests and treatments. Population averages are population averages, but we ourselves are not averages. For example, it turns out that I probably have a 30x(!) higher-than-average predisposition to melanoma. Fortunately, there are both specific supplements that help counteract the particular mutations I have, and of course I can significantly dial up my screening frequency. So, this is very useful to know. I don't know exactly how much the analysis cost, but probably less than $100. Sequencing my genome cost a few hundred dollars. (One often sees papers and articles claiming that models aren't very good at medical reasoning. These analyses are usually based on employing several-year-old models, which is a kind of ludicrous malpractice. It is true that you still have to carefully monitor the agents' reasoning, and they do on occasion jump to conclusions or skip steps, requiring some nudging and re-steering. But, overall, they are almost literally infinitely better for this kind of work than what one can otherwise obtain today.) There are still lots of questions about how this will diffuse and get adopted, but it seems very clear that medical practice is about to improve enormously. Exciting times!
