SpaceX is merging with X.AI. You're
00:00:03
merging the two biggest TAMs in the
00:00:05
world, right? All of artificial
00:00:06
intelligence and all of space together
00:00:09
with the world's greatest entrepreneur.

He said, "I'm going to have data centers
00:00:12
in space in 30 months, right? And if
00:00:15
you're going to have a massive cost
00:00:16
advantage with data centers in space,
00:00:18
and remember, power is the proxy. Power
00:00:20
is the primitive to AI. If you can
00:00:23
deliver that, then Elon's your guy. And
00:00:26
the combination of those make perfect
00:00:27
sense. But Elon is like kind of an N of
00:00:30
one's ability to dream this. I think
00:00:32
that there will be dramatic retail
00:00:35
demand and institutional demand who want
00:00:37
to bet on that future.
