Musk's writing in China
Author:Daily Economic News Time:2022.08.16
Recently, the "China Internet Information" magazine, which is headed by the Central Cyberspace Office and sponsored by the China Network Space Research Institute, published an article signed by Elon Musk, signed by "CEO of Tesla Corporation and Academician of the National Academy of Engineering," For "Believe in Creation a Better Future". In the article, Musk, the world's richest man, shared some thinking about technology and human vision.
In the article, Musk believes that transportation including cars, airplanes, and ships in the future will achieve comprehensive electrification. Electric rockets may be more difficult, but we may be able to create promoters used in rockets through sustainable energy. In the end, the world economy will be fully operated by sustainable energy.
Musk revealed in the text that the original intention of Tesla was to solve the problem of energy innovation. He also affirmed the significance of Chinese enterprises in the future of sustainable development, and pointed out that "in the cause of energy innovation, Chinese companies will be a force that cannot be ignored."
It is worth mentioning that on August 15, Tesla CEO Elon Musk issued a article on social media to celebrate the 1 million vehicles produced by Shanghai Super Factory offline. Tesla has produced more than 3 million units worldwide.
At the same time, Musk also mentioned that he was studying brain -machine interfaces and Tesla human -shaped robots. The height of Tesla robots is close to a adult, which can be handled or hand heavy, and can walk in a small step. The screen on its face is an interactive interface to communicate with people. The original positioning of Tesla robots was to replace people who are engaged in repeated and dangerous and dangerous work. But the long -view goal is to allow it to serve millions of households, such as cooking, trimming the lawn, and taking care of the elderly.
The brain -machine interface company is mainly engaged in the development of computer and human brain fusion technology. The brain chip developed by it is like coins, similar to smart watches and other wearable devices, but it can be more deeply combined with the user's body -through implantation of the brain into the brain Cortis to record and stimulate brain activity. Brain -machine interface technology will focus on cure or relieve brain damage and other related diseases in the coming years. This technology can also improve a wider range of brain injury, including severe depression, pathological obesity, sleep problems, potential schizophrenia, etc.
In the end, Musk delivered a speech to his "Chinese friend" and introduced the mission of the Space Exploration Technology Company (SpaceX), and was committed to building a self -sufficient city on Mars.
The global richest man said: "I want our possibility to maximize our possibilities to realize the help of human good future. To this end, any areas that help to achieve sustainable development in the future is worth our investment."
In this column article, Musk finally said: "I hope that more people can work with us to accelerate the transformation of the world to sustainable energy. I also welcome more like -minded Chinese partners to join us to join us and devote themselves to themselves. In the exploration of clean energy, artificial intelligence, human -machine collaboration, and even space fields, we will create a tomorrow worth looking forward to. "
The WeChat public account of "China Network" magazine pushed Musk articles in the full text on the afternoon of August 16. The content is as follows:
Thanks to the invitation of "China Internet Council" magazine, I am glad to share some of my thinking on technology and human vision with Chinese friends.
With the accelerated development of technology, one day technology may surpass human understanding and control. In this regard, some people are optimistic and pessimistic. But I believe that as long as we are not full, we always maintain a sense of urgency, then, with the promotion of scientific and technological power, the prospect of human beings will eventually be beautiful. This is like a self -evidence prediction: if humans want to make the future beautiful, you should take action to make the future beautiful.
I hope that our possibilities are maximized with scientific and technological means to realize the future help of human beings. To this end, any areas that help to achieve sustainable development in the future are worth our investment. Whether it is Tesla, brain -machine interface companies, or space exploration technology companies, the ultimate goal of these companies is to improve the quality of life of human future, and to create more practical value to the world as much as possible -Tesla aims to be intended to be designed to the world. Accelerate the transformation of the world to sustainable energy, brain -machine interface companies are involved in medical rehabilitation, and space exploration technology companies make interstellar connections possible.
Clean Energy: The future of sustainable development
For clean energy, the starting point I think is how to continue and storage energy for a long time, and how to continuously provide motivation for future production and life sources. In my opinion, the future of sustainable energy involves three links.
The generation of sustainable energy. The sun is like a huge nuclear fusion generator, and the energy developed by humans currently develops is very small. In the long run, solar energy will become the main energy of human civilization. Of course, wind, hydropower, geothermal, and nuclear power are also beneficial energy supplements.
Sustainable energy storage. In view of the changes in sunny and weather in the day and night, we need a lot of fixed battery packs to store solar energy and wind energy, because the sun will not always shine, the wind will not always blow, and the invisible energy needs to be sealed in a large number of fixed battery packs. Essence
Electricized transportation. The transportation including cars, aircraft, and ships is fully electrified. Electric rockets may be more difficult, but we may be able to create promoters used in rockets through sustainable energy. In the end, the world economy will be fully operated by sustainable energy.
The world is moving towards the track of sustainable energy transformation, and human beings should continue to accelerate this process. Because the faster this transformation, the smaller the risk of humans to the environment, the more gains you get. When the supply of clean energy continues, the cost of carbon sealing and seawater will be lower, and the problem of climate change and water resources will also be solved; when fossil fuels exit the historical stage, the sky will become cleaner, the world will be quieter, the world will be quieter The air will be fresher and will be more bright in the future. Solar, battery packs, and electric vehicles outline a beautiful prospect. Next, we need to focus on solving restricted factors. The development of automobile electrification has become a consensus of various countries, but the popularity of pure electric vehicles in the world requires Taiwa -level battery support. According to our estimates, human beings need about 300 Taiwaph to storage to achieve sustainable energy transformation. The biggest difficulty in promoting sustainable energy lies in the large -scale production of lithium battery cells. Specifically, from mining, elements to the production line of battery cells, and finally forming a battery pack, it is necessary to experience many complex links. It can be said that the production of battery cells restricts the rapid development of sustainable energy economy.
As a pioneer and innovator focusing on energy innovation technology, Tesla's original intention was to solve the problem of energy innovation. On the one hand, we can create comprehensive sustainable energy products from energy production, storage to the use of three links; on the other hand, we are committed to redefining battery manufacturing through innovative development of advanced battery technology and eliminating restrictions on battery capacity. I believe that the world will transition to the future of sustainable development through the combination of solar energy, wind energy plus battery storage and electric vehicles. I am glad to see more and more companies joining this field. In energy innovation, Chinese companies will be a force that cannot be ignored.

Humanoid robot: Do what humans do
Today's cars are more and more like intelligent connected robots installed with wheels. In fact, in addition to cars, humanoid robots are also becoming reality. Tesla launched a common humanoid robot (Tesla Bot) in 2021. The height of Tesla robots is close to a adult, which can be handled or hand heavy, and can walk in a small step. The screen on its face is an interactive interface to communicate with people. You may be curious, why should we design this leg with a leg? Because human society interaction is based on the interaction of two feet with two arms and ten fingers. Therefore, if we want robots to adapt to the environment and can do what humans do, it must have the same size, shape and ability as humans.
The original positioning of Tesla robots was to replace people who are engaged in repeated and dangerous and dangerous work. But the long -view goal is to allow it to serve millions of households, such as cooking, trimming the lawn, and taking care of the elderly.
To achieve this goal requires the ability of robots to evolve enough intelligence and have the ability to produce large -scale production robots. The "four -wheeled robot" of our production -has changed people's travel and even lifestyle. One day we solve the autonomous driving problem of the car (that is, the artificial intelligence problem in the real world), we can promote artificial intelligence technology to humanoid robots. This will have a wider application prospect than cars.
We plan to launch the prototype of the first humanoid robot this year, and focus on improving the degree of intelligence of the robot and solve the problem of large -scale production. Since then, with the expansion of production scale and decline in cost, the practicality of humanoid robots will increase year by year. In the future, a home robot may be cheaper than a car. Perhaps in less than ten years, people can buy a robot for their parents as a birthday gift.
It is foreseeable that with the power of robots, we will create an era of extremely abundant commodities and services, and everyone can live a rich life. Perhaps the only scarcity in the future is that we create ourselves as humans.
Brain -machine interface: empower the disabled
Compared to electric vehicles, some Chinese friends may not be so familiar with brain -machine interface companies. This type of company is mainly engaged in the development of computer and human brain fusion technology. The brain chip developed by it is like coins, similar to smart watches and other wearable devices, but it can be more deeply combined with the user's body - Record and stimulate brain activity.
At this stage, this technology is helping the wounded at the individual level. We have received a lot of regrettable emails: a 25 -year -old young man accidentally had an accident in the golden period of life, which caused unable to eat independently. This is a great grief in individuals and family. In view of this, brain -machine interface technology will focus on cure or ease related diseases such as brain injury in the next many years. For example, it can help those who have spine injury and people with nervous system diseases restore their body sensation or movement function, or let those who are paralyzed with their limbs can easily operate their computers or mobile phones with their brains.
This technology can also improve a wider range of brain injury. Whether these diseases are congenital or due to accidents, or they are caused by age and external pressure factors, including severe depression, pathological obesity, sleep problems, potential Schizophrenia, etc., are expected to be relieved through human -machine equipment.
With the development of brain -machine interface technology, in the long -term perspective, this connection will be expected to expand channels for external communication with human brain, and "access" more brain areas and new nerve data. This technology allows humans to effectively integrate with artificial intelligence, and ultimately expand the new way of interaction between humans and the world, themselves and others. Even if the goal of man -machine combination is difficult to achieve, brain -machine interface technology will play huge value in the field of medical rehabilitation. Space exploration: the possibility of planet habitat
In the end, my biggest hope is that humans create a self -sufficient city on Mars. Many people ask me, why explore outer space and make humans become multi -plane creatures? In the vast universe, human civilization is like a weak candle, like a little light in the void. One day, the expansion of the sun causes the earth to no longer be livable, and we can fly towards the new home by spacecraft. If human beings can inhabit other planets, it means that humans have one of the conditions that have been screened through the universe. At that time, we will become interstellar citizens, and human civilization will continue.
The first step to realize the planet's habitat is to reduce travel costs, which is the original intention of the space exploration technology company -we first create recyclable rockets, and then to build a reusable giant spacecraft to continuously increase the carrying capacity. As of the beginning of this year, the Space Exploration Technology Company had successfully achieved 79 rocket reuse flights, transported the goods to the space station and sent ordinary people to space. We also designed to create the largest carrier rocket in history- "Starship", which can carry 100 passengers and supplies at a time. In the future, we plan to build at least 1,000 "star ships" to send a batch of pioneers to Mars to build a self -sufficient city.
With the continuous acceleration of the process of technology changing life, the world development is changing. Life is not just solving one after another. We all hope to look forward to the future when we wake up in the morning and rejoicing what is about to happen. I hope that more people can work with us to accelerate the transformation of the world to sustainable energy. I also welcome more like -minded Chinese partners to join us to devote themselves to the exploration of clean energy, artificial intelligence, human -machine collaboration, and even space fields to create a tomorrow worth looking forward to.
