Are you saying SpaceX doesn't make money? I have no idea about Neuralink but the first sounds pretty odd.

  Where did I say that? I was using the classic idea of the flying car as an example of a thing that has been out of reach as an as a product for normal people and may not actually be successful if it were to really be sold. Replace flying car with whatever example you want. To put it in a different way, you could be so busy figuring out how to do it that you don’t figure out that a business case doesn’t actually exist. I wasn’t trying to comment on any of Musk‘s other companies specifically. Only that we don’t know if making robots will actually make money.

      Oh come on. Lots of successful companies are based on something they figured out how to do that others hadn’t. I really was not trying to slam his other companies. I think you’re reading too much into this. Making humanoid robots is not a guaranteed path to riches. That’s all I’m trying to say.
