DogeDesigner@cb_doge· 22 mars 2026ELON MUSK: "Space solar actually costs less than terrestrial solar because you don't need heavy glass or framing to protect it from extreme weather events. So as soon as the cost to orbit drops to a low number, it immediately makes extremely compelling sense to put AI in space.

Jesse Peltan@JessePeltan· 22 mars 2026A terawatt *per year* is HUGE on the scale of current civilization (2x the U.S. grid every year), and yet that’s still 100,000 years to reach Type I, and 10^14 years to reach Type II.
This is still only the beginning.

If the average chip is 1 kW, this would be 1 billion chips a year.
Assuming this is about five years away, at that point Tesla will hopefully be making 100 units of Optimus a year and 20 million cybercabs a year, for a total of 140 million chips.
That means over 800 million

The largest data center in the world is planned to be built in Ohio, and it'll cost up to $40,000,000,000 to construct.
The 3,700 acre center will require 10 Gigawatts, 1/3 of Ohio's entire power grid capacity, to run.

Lots of “impossible” things suddenly seem inevitable when costs come down by a few orders of magnitude.
This happened with batteries, and people still haven’t realized it.
X Freeze@XFreeze· 21 mars 2026It’s actually insane what SpaceX is doing to the space industry right now
In 1981, it cost ~$65,000 to put 1 kg into orbit
For 50 years, the industry accepted this as the standard. Reusable rockets were "impossible"
Then one company - led by a man obsessed with getting humanity
