Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk reiterated bullish sentiments on the commercial space flight giant’s AI efforts, while also warning that companies not incorporating the technology could risk being left behind.

SpaceX Will Exceed Everyone Else

On Monday, the official handle for the prediction market platform Kalshi shared Musk’s earlier comments about SpaceX leading the AI race. “Elon Musk says SpaceX will “far exceed” everyone in AI,” Kalshi’s post said.

Responding to Kalshi’s post, Musk issued a correction in the statement. “*everyone else combined,” he said in his response, reaffirming his belief in SpaceX’s AI efforts following its recent acquisition of Musk’s artificial intelligence startup xAI as well as hiring new talent despite a series of high-profile departures from the company.

AI Companies Will Crush Non-AI Companies

In a video shared on January 29, user @HinataMotivates shared an old video of Musk, where the billionaire predicted that companies not incorporating AI would be left behind.

He shared that a computer working on a single spreadsheet “will outperform” a building filled with human workers. “Companies that are entirely AI will demolish companies that are not,” Musk said in the video.

Responding to the user, Musk reaffirmed his stance. “Not saying I necessarily want this to happen, just that it will,” he said in his response to the user.

Elon Musk Bets On Humans

Interestingly, the billionaire had shared earlier that Tesla wasn’t planning to lay off any human employees, outlining that his company was instead looking at expanding its human workforce, as AI tools would significantly boost the productivity of Tesla’s human employees.

He also reiterated his “universal high income” comments, sharing that AI would enable the company to “issue money” to people as the technology would cause a “deflation” in the economy.

SpaceX Comments, Terafab Efforts

The billionaire had earlier said that SpaceX would “far exceed” rivals in the AI race, including Alphabet Inc.‘s (NASDAQ:GOOGL) (NASDAQ:GOOG) Google DeepMind.

Meanwhile, Musk also shared that Tesla would be kicking off its Terafab AI chip project in a few days’ time. The project will help Tesla design its updated self-driving chip and is touted to be at the center of the EV giant’s autonomous driving efforts. This comes as Tesla hired AI chip designers in South Korea to build AI chips.
