Elon Musk had some things to say. Tesla's profits or their financials came out yesterday. But among other things he has said recently that Starlink satellites will soon, well actually now can, broadcast directly to your cell phone. I suppose it depends which cell phone service you use. I don't think it's all of them yet, but you will not need to be near a cell tower. You will be able to use your phone anywhere on Earth and I believe that's already active. But you would need the right cell service.

Speaking of Elon Musk, the Cybercab estimates for what it would cost, I think it's per mile, is that it would be as low as 25 to 30 cents for driving a Cybercab. Now, you wouldn't drive it. It has no steering wheel, but it would be way cheaper than any other driving solution. And one of the reasons is that Elon explains that if you're making an automobile that's just essentially a taxi cab that doesn't have a driver, you can skip a lot of expense. So they can make them kind of cheaply. They assume that they will not have to go around corners at 80 miles an hour because nobody would do that in a taxi. Well, hopefully. So you can just remove the ability for the car to do high-end stuff because it will never do that stuff.

Production for the Cybercab is on track for volume production in 2026. And it'll be rolling out in Florida, Arizona, California, Nevada, and more. Elon says that if we execute well, Tesla has a shot at being the most valuable company in the world. The most valuable company in the world. Now that would mean car sales and Cybercabs and robots and all that, but to be the most valuable company in the world they would have to beat what? Nvidia. I think Nvidia is the most expensive company, right? Four trillion. Well, we'll see.

That would make Elon the first trillionaire. Do you think he'll get there? I feel like he will. I feel like Elon will be the first trillionaire. And that's really only four times what he already has. So if it's true that Tesla executes well with Cybercabs and with robots and more cars, could it go up by a multiple of four? Yeah, it could.

Let's see what the competition is doing over at Uber. CNBC is reporting that Uber is going to allow a new option that if you're a woman who wants to ride on Uber, you can request a woman driver. Now, that's a problem that Tesla won't have at all because they don't have a driver. Which would you prefer if you had a choice? I think I'll try to get an Uber, but I have to wait for a woman to be available. Or I will summon my Cybercab because there's no driver. I don't have to worry about it.

Uber is not looking very competitive at the moment because I don't know what your experience is, but most Uber drivers I think are male. I don't know what the ratio is, but I would guess three out of four. And sometimes it's hard enough to get a ride. Imagine how hard it would be if you had to wait for the one out of four who's a woman who has been requested by every single woman who wanted a ride. I feel like Uber may have a plan for putting themselves out of business. Doesn't look like that could work.

Elon Musk also says, quote, "Batteries are going to be a massive thing. The scale of battery demand, I think that not many people appreciate just how gigantic the scale of battery demand is." And he goes on to say that only 0.0001% of people seem to appreciate this crucial point. And that crucial point would be this: that the sustained power output from the US grid is about 1 terawatt but average usage is less than half of it. So if you add batteries to the mix you can run the power plants 24 hours a day at full capacity more than doubling the energy output per year of the United States just with batteries.

Now, every time I bring up the fact that batteries are going to be a big solution for our energy needs in the future, I'm really just cribbing from Elon Musk. And it's not that I know anything about batteries. It's just that I think he probably knows more than you know about batteries. That's my whole bit. I think he's looked into it. Yeah, I'm pretty sure he's researched batteries.

In other news, teens are starting to turn to AI for their companionship and it's a much bigger thing than you probably think. The teens using AI. Some of them use it all day long. Just have somebody to talk to and ask about normal stuff like for example, this is written by Jocelyn Gecker in phys.org. There's a young person named Kayla, a high school student in Kansas. She says, "No question is too small for AI." So the 15-year-old has always asked ChatGPT for stuff about back to school shopping and makeup colors and low calorie food and ideas for birthday parties, etc.

Now, I don't want to get ahead of this too far, but one of the things that I've predicted for now probably 20 years is that when it gets to the point where AI and virtual reality and robots and stuff become preferable to human contact, we're in a lot of trouble. And I would say that if you look at the quality of the average teenager, imagine trying to be friends with a teenager even if you were a teenager. Well, they wouldn't be very attentive or nice. They might be bullies. They might be judgmental. But your AI, as the teens point out, is never judgmental. It's always optimistic and it's always helpful. How is a human teenager going to compete with that? Because humans bring so many problems with them. But the AI doesn't bring any problems. It's just something you can talk to and it does what you want, the way you want it to.

So we may be approaching that point where teens say, "I don't really need a mate. I'll take care of that myself."

Here's something I'm not too surprised at. Well, maybe a little bit, but Brigitte Macron and whatever her husband's name is, what is Macron's first name in France? They're suing Candace Owens for Candace Owens' continuous claims that Brigitte Macron was born a man. So what would you bet will happen with that? It seems to me that if you did discovery, and you would have to, wouldn't Brigitte Macron need to prove that she's biologically female in order to win her case? And Candace is doubling down. Quote, "You were born a man and you will die a man. That's the point I'm making. I think you're sick. I think you're disgusting. I am fully prepared to take on this battle, meaning the lawsuit on behalf of the entire world. I'll see you in court."

Now, do you think that the Macrons would sue her unless they could easily provide, let's say, DN
