On Thursday, responding to futurist Peter Diamandis's discourse on achieving a "universal high income," Elon Musk remarked that a straightforward approach—utilizing the U.S. monetary system to distribute funds to every citizen—could suffice. He posited that as long as the production of goods and services outpaces the money supply—a scenario he deems inevitable with the widespread deployment of AI-driven robots—the economic system would remain stable. Addressing another query, Musk further speculated that the future output generated by Optimus (Tesla's humanoid robot) and space-based AI technologies could vastly exceed the current aggregate production of goods and services on Earth.
