Never Bet Against Elon

Never, ever, ever bet against Elon. He doesn't like being number 2. He doesn't like dependencies either. I've been there in the conversations with him and he says, you know, I'm not dependent on anybody. We're gonna hear about that in the story a little bit later when he's, you know, the realization is he can't get enough turbines for his natural gas engines and he can't get enough solar. So he's gonna build those himself. That's what he does. He vertically integrates across the entire stack.

Well, that's why that super-voting control for Dario is such a big, big decision that's still kind of, know, hanging out in limbo because one scenario where Elon solves this problem is he just, he gets very, very big and then he acquires Anthropic for a trillion or $2 trillion or something like that and just folds it into the empire. And I'm sure the board members and the investors would love that, but I don't think Dario would love that. So the super-voting control is really the pivot point on whether that's a likely outcome.
