Elon Musk recently shared his optimistic outlook on the future of AI and robotics on social media platform X. He believes that within the next decade, advancements in these fields will lead to significant economic growth and potentially a budget surplus.
Musk's comments were made in response to a conversation with Peter Thiel, a prominent venture capitalist, where Musk predicted the presence of one billion humanoid robots in the United States within ten years. Thiel suggested that such technological progress would alleviate budget deficit concerns due to the resulting economic expansion.
