Having @elonmusk interview @vladtenev live on our show was just incredible. Don’t think I’ve ever been part of anything so electric.

Vision of Neuralink: We have multiple layers already 1) limbic 2) cortex 3) digital . Bandwidth between cortex and digital is very slow. Need to fix this. That’s the plan and vision of neuralink.
About Monkey Facility: We have the best monkey facility and are keen to get them play some games with their mind. Early applications could be for people with brain injury. Before it becomes available to all.
About his Kids: Most of my kids education is from YouTube and Reddit. Most important to focus on “why of things” when teaching kids. That forces kids to understand relevance of things.
Why doesn’t world have more Elon musks : I feel strong compulsion to do things I do. It’s very painful and not sure many people feel like doing it. Most people who want to be like me: don’t do it. Don’t do a startup if you need encouraging words. Comes from deep compulsion.
Views on Bitcoin : I should have bought Bitcoin 8 years ago. I am late to the party. I am supporter of Bitcoin. It’s on verge of wide acceptance by financial world.
That’s all folks. I got kicked out of the room for some reason and can’t get in now. Now back to checking on budget.
