Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

Like, does the gas turbine backlog, basically?

Why not make solar?

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

That seems like a good Elon-shaped problem.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

We are going to make solar.

Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

Is this Siemens GE, those guys, or is it a subcontractor?

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

Don't you know some people?

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

But why would it not work to stand up your own solar production?

And then you're right that you eventually run out of land.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

But there's a lot of land here in Texas.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

There's a lot of land in Nevada, including private land.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

It's not all publicly owned land.

Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

And so you'd be able to at least get the next Colossus and the next one after that.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

And at a certain point, you hit a wall.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

But wouldn't that work for the moment?

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

Speaking of the annual capacity, I'm curious, in five years' time, let's say, what will the installed capacity be on Earth?

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

Five years is a long time.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

And in space.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

I deliberately picked five years because it's after your once-we're-up-and-running threshold.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

And so in five years' time, yeah, what's the on-Earth versus in-space installed AI capacity?

Dwarkesh Podcast
Elon Musk - "In 36 months, the cheapest place to put AI will be space”

Okay, but you think you can get to hundreds of gigawatts per year in five years time?
