And so given that sort of ideology and given his track record of giving, Forbes put it, at less than 1% of his fortune to charity each year, it seems unlikely this will happen anytime soon.
And also based off of his track record, it seems unlikely that even if the robots do bring all of this abundant food and water and shelter, that it'll be shared very fairly.
But I hope I'm wrong.
His answer is that most of his contribution to humanity comes from his companies, will always come from his companies, will probably come from the robots and the sending humans to Mars and the what have you, and not from philanthropy, which he tends to regard with a lot of suspicion.
Earlier in his career, he had a little bit more of an openness to it.
He formed his own foundation.
He kind of hung out with Bill Gates and the rest of the billionaire philanthropist club for a little while.
But that's just not sort of the tune he's been taking for the past year, the past few years or so.
It's just not something that interests him anymore.
And he doesn't seem to see value in it.
I think we would have to start back in 2015.
So that's when OpenAI started.
OpenAI began as a nonprofit.
It began as this nonprofit AI lab founded by a few donors, including some extremely familiar names like Elon Musk and Sam Altman.
And they founded it as a nonprofit to develop AI in a way that is safe and that will benefit humanity.
And they created it as a nonprofit lab instead of as a corporation or as like a for-profit startup, which is normally what we would see for this kind of thing, because they figured that this technology was going to be so transformative that we need to make sure there's no profit motive involved.
So nobody is going to make money off of what we're making.
That was 2015.
Fast forward a few years and AI starts getting a lot of buzz because of a new product called ChatGPT that OpenAI, the nonprofit lab, developed.
So over time, OpenAI was saying, you know, we need a lot more money to be able to do this properly.
