Did Elon Musk just admit he is creating a robot army? See for yourselves what he said during an interview with Garry Tan, the president and CEO of Y Combinator’s AI Startup School.
“Is it true that you’re planning a robot army?” Tan asked Musk.
“Whether Tesla does it (or not) … you’ve seen how many humanoid robot startups (there are). I think (there are) dozens of robots from different companies,” Musk said.

Tan spoke with Musk about the future of AI, brain chips, augmented humans and more. What Musk said was fascinating, but also very concerning. And the robot army remark is relatively benign compared to the rest. First off, he said that digital superintelligence will be achieved this year or at most next year:
I think we’re quite close to digital superintelligence. It may happen this year — and if it doesn’t happen this year, next year for sure. Digital superintelligence defined as: smarter than any human at anything.
But most concerning for me were his remarks about his brain chips – Neuralink – that will make for augmented human beings:
At some point the cybernetic implants wouldn’t simply be correcting things that went wrong but augmenting human capabilities dramatically — augmenting intelligence and senses and bandwidth dramatically.
So we can all be superbeings? With augmented vision, hearing, strength, and even thinking?
Wow.
Imagine how hard it will be to resist that, even if to get the chip you had to deny your faith.
Remember COVID? Remember how the jab gave you access to work, to travel, to restaurants, to your grandparents? It was a temptation beyond belief to take a shot that was controversially associated with abortion. Many took it out of grave concern for their health and the health of their families. Even many of those who didn’t want to take it took it to save their jobs, to visit dying relatives, to travel and have a “normal” life.
