Elon Musk loses billions playing D&D
FULL TRANSCRIPT
So, we've got to talk about Elon.
>> What's going on today?
>> Well, I think they're under a lot of
pressure over there.
>> What kind of pressure?
>> Well, we're talking about XAI
>> and basically they're losers. That's
basically what it is.
>> But Mosk doesn't think so, I guess.
>> No, he knows. He knows. He knows. Yeah.
So, what's going on, guys? There was a
interesting report from the Business
Insider, and we both took a look at it,
and it describes what it's like to work
with Elon over there. And long story
short, they know they're losing because
when you think about say the top chatbot
company or chat bots, who are the who
are the big players in this?
>> Open AAI, the the entrophy,
>> right? One more.
>> Oh, Gemini.
>> Yeah, Google Gemini, right? And and it
was interesting because you actually
named them in the order that we were
sort of started talking about this stuff
cuz when because when it first came out,
it was all about chat GBT, OpenI, right?
And then suddenly like last week it was
all anthropic in Claude
>> and then Google's just kind of always
been there.
>> Yeah.
>> You know, and actually Yi surprised me.
I don't know was it a month ago or
something like that. You're like, "Hey,
I've been talking to Gemini." And I'm
like, "What?" But we all do when you
search Google cuz it cuz it it just
shows up.
>> They just you want to do AI, you know,
their AI section. So I just always click
that. right now to be fair for those
people who are like on X Twitter like
all day every day they're using Grock
because because you can see that it's
sort of integrated into that that
platform. So it just depends what
circles you run in but clearly Grock
Elon Musk is in last place compared to
the other three
>> but at least it's on it's hot on news.
>> Not in a good way but yes it is in the
news. It is that's very true. It is in
the news. So, for example, you guys have
been paying attention. Um, it was three
weeks ago already. I think it was France
uh in Paris, they raided the office like
crazy cuz basically it's like a bunch of
this undressing people kind of stuff. We
talked several times on the on the
channel
>> and this is actually a situation.
Ireland was the most recent country
>> to say you we're investigating you for
this kind of stuff. Um, but basically
what's going on right now is because
he's losing essentially what he does, he
just goes through X. I think he's on
that thing all the time. Same with
Trump, they're on this social media like
all day every day. And you wonder like
when these people have time to
>> do this stuff, but they are. And then
whenever he sees like news about another
company, be it Open Anthropic, Google,
whatever, he'll quickly then send a
message to engineer of like, I just saw
they're doing that. Why aren't we doing
that?
>> Yeah, that's as a worker, it's really
awful, you know. So what should I do?
Should I, you know, they probably have
their project right now? Sure. What what
should I do?
>> Yeah. No one likes work for someone like
that because it's true, right? You
you're working on something and then
like I guess according to the employees,
insiders, they were just saying like
everything's a fire alarm because
because you could imagine that like
there's news every day on this stuff and
then suddenly your boss is like why
aren't we doing that? And you're just
like well I'm still working on this. So,
>> but you know,
>> fire alarm all all the time. It's not
fire alarm anymore.
>> Seriously. Uh, and then you know, part
of the fire alarm situation. So,
everything's a fire alarm. Okay. So,
it's like, you know, you
>> can I mute?
>> Yeah. Yeah. Can I mute the fire alarm?
Then they expect you to work uh like 12
to 16 hours a day.
>> And they had this other really crazy
thing. Um, no matter when you get a
message from Elon,
>> yeah,
>> you're supposed to respond with like in
30 minutes. And remember, Elon's an
addict, so he could message you.
>> I think I think he either could be out
or he's gonna yell at you. Who knows?
Like like they like that was just the
expectation
>> that you're supposed to respond with in
30 minutes.
>> It's pretty weird, right?
>> Because because you know during during
the workday
>> still not good,
>> right? Still not good because um you
know there's any number of reasons like
sometimes like hey did you get my email?
Your boss marches down your office.
Where why didn't you answer my email?
Right. But imagine like Elon cuz he's an
I have to mention addict because he
could message you at 2 a.m. in the
morning and so you're expected to answer
within 30 minutes
>> when you know during he's playing the
League of Legend. Oh, he just thought
about something and just text.
>> Yeah. Yeah. And it's funny that AG
brought up League of Legends because
this was actually I guess from the
inside they were saying Elon was like
really determined that his Grock AI
thing get really good at League of
Legends. That's how awful is if you
think about if you're, you know, the
engineer.
>> You didn't really want to do that, but
you have to keep learning, you know, the
League of Legend that you never played
and you don't even care.
>> Yeah. And then it's not even League of
Legends. There's another game you you
probably know this other one. It's
called Balders's Gate. We've talked
about this before. So, if you guys don't
know, and for those of you who like
Ballers's Gate, um, basically many
people consider it the best game in
history. M
>> uh it just came out I think like 10
years to make this game or whatever.
>> Oh, I remember.
>> I totally It's like it's a pretty cool
game. Um but anyway, he was upset that
the chatbot didn't have enough like
knowledge about the game and so he's
like put teams on League of Legends,
Balders's Gates, stuff like that. And
these are like all emergencies. You got
to get really good at video games. Um I
think part of it, one of the reasons why
they're doing that
>> well was many reasons, but was one is he
he's claimed he wants to make a video
game company also.
So it's like among other things.
>> Yeah.
>> So basically I mean search it that's
what he does. He just watches the news
like oh I saw like this like really cool
game or this game my phone can
>> he's good at buying company. He can just
buy the game company.
>> You would think. So I'm I'm always
curious the dude's cash information, you
know, cash flow situation. I'm always
curious on that.
>> Just get another loan from the XAI
SpaceX whatever.
>> Yeah. That I mean that's his plan.
That's the plan. So basically, you pump
up your company and say, "Hey, my
company's worth, you know, this amount
of money. I I promise this is what it's
worth." And then and then you Yeah. you
get loans built on that. So it's kind of
crazy, but because you mentioned, could
you just buy another company, right? So
that's when he picks up the phone and
it's funny because um he usually works
with Morgan Stanley
>> and then the way they describe this
stuff is like there's only certain
people that he can tolerate
>> because people I'll just say to be
honest like some of these people at
Morgan Stanley or whatever these kind of
places they're greedy individuals.
>> Sure.
>> So if you can get the Elon Musk account
and you you know get your one or two% or
whatever percentage you're getting
you're like you know
>> pump up the numbers because they get a
whatever. It's kind of like you know in
real estate where you buy and sell home
the bigger the price. your bigger your
commission basically and right and so
Elon's kind of a good client in that way
but Elon has like a very uh how can I
say he's very picky on like who he'll
work with because he you got to answer
him like right away he kind you're kind
of like I don't know I it's kind of like
those kind of clients or customers who
feel like they're the VIP no matter what
and the only VIP and they should have
like their own special meeting room when
they show up or like they show up
unannounced right and that it's expect,
you know, where's my service? Why is it
enrolled at the red carpet for me? So,
it's it's kind of like that. And then he
he expects then everyone at his office X
or whatever companies to be like this.
>> But the um the XA situation is
interesting because he is so far behind
the other the other companies. That's
why they're under pressure right now.
>> So, I don't know too much pressure.
That's why like the people keep leaving
I guess.
>> Yeah. So, there's different reasons. So
first is the the two co-founders left
which we we talked recently. Um
>> and uh there one reason could be the
merger with SpaceX.
>> There could be some sensitive stuff in
that. So if you're getting government
contracts in defense like military kind
of stuff then you can't have foreign
nationals you know doing that stuff. So
that's part of it probably they don't
say just you kind of figure it out. Uh
other parts could be people are just
uncomfortable entirely with I I think
the undressing thing really bothered a
lot of people.
>> Sure. Who's comfortable with that?
>> Yeah. Just just people like Elon and you
know if if you want to take people's
clothes off that's your thing not
consider but you know Yeah. It's just
say not good people and people who like
to go hang out on a particular island.
We'll put it that way. Um the other
issue as well is like just the work
demands
and Elon can't do this stuff on his own.
He can't really do it.
>> No, he's some people think he's like
programmer, scientist, engineer, but
he's not.
>> No, it's it's clear. And so like the
difference is say if you're at a
legitimate place, just for example, and
your boss like knows how to do
something, it's like, hey, we're gonna
do this. This is my drawing. This is my
design. This is my, you know, initial
code. I need you to just debug this or
you know like like they're the actual
brains behind it.
>> It has a very different feeling opposed
to like I saw this other guy was doing
something
>> and I don't like that I like that.
>> Yeah. And then they just like tell you
to go go be like that and it's like
>> if you're the you know if you're smart
you say why don't why don't you you know
do it.
>> It's not a good direction you know.
>> Yeah. So that's sort of how it how it's
run over there. Um, they break up. I
guess they said they have five war
rooms. They use the phrase war room. And
then you're expected to just, I guess,
work non-stop on this thing, sleep at
the office kind of stuff. And
everything's an emergency.
>> Nah, then it's not emergency.
Um, and I think part of what also like
the e situation is I, you know, and
there's different ways you could read
this, but I think there's a a window
closing to where the money is drying up,
>> right? So, it's emergency in sense,
well, there's different e. So, one
emergency could be we got bills to pay,
>> right? Like they have a lot of debt,
>> you know, and um every month they got
to, you know, pay said debt or figure
out a way to restructure said debt. So,
that would be one emergency you could
say. Another emergency you could say
like we actually do have employees to
play. You we should pay our people or
they're not going to come to work. Like
like you do, you know, um because this
this is real. Uh they are burning money.
>> Mhm.
>> It's like like a billion a month kind of
money that they're just just you know
losing essentially.
>> Not just them, it's older company losing
money right now.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Because it it takes a
lot. You got to hire all these people.
You got to have them develop all this
new tech and then you got to market it.
That takes money, right? And then you
got to do your data centers and all that
stuff. And then you got to hope that
someone buys it and you got to hope that
someone buys it in a really poor
economy.
>> Yeah.
>> Right. And you may convince some people,
but then PE, you know, people and
companies have choices on like where
they go. And it's been interesting.
Something I I've been noticing is like
everyone right now is trying to
determine why do we even need this stuff
and what is it going to be for?
>> Right? So this is this is why it's so
fascinating story right now. Um because
everyone's panicking trying to to get
that get that money.
>> And even the Elon wants to hire Korean,
you know. Yeah.
>> He posted join Tesla.
>> Yeah. So that was really funny. Um
basically I think he's after chip makers
and stuff like that.
>> Chip designer
>> and it's it's his companies are so
intertwined in a nor in a normally
functioning you know world. There's a
lot of stuff that Elon is doing I would
say is illegal to be frank. Um but
basically yeah he wants to hire Koreans.
I think uh in Korea though that you told
me something recently was really
interesting the news. There's a company
is it called Heinix I believe
>> and they they they released like
information. Was it Highex of their pay
or was it a different company?
>> Oh yeah SKH Highix.
>> Yeah. SK Highix. So what was the deal
with that?
>> How much payus? Yeah. Yeah. What was the
deal with that?
>> Did they get the bonus about the Yugo?
Yeah.
>> For two years, a year.
>> So that's like four to $500,000 bonus.
And it's kind of funny that they
announced this. Was this like two days
ago or something like that?
>> About like week two weeks ago.
>> Okay. Yeah. It it's it's pretty
interesting because then essentially
those are the kind of people that Elon's
after. It's like if you just got a a
pretty big bonus from, you know, said
company and Elon's got a history of
being, you know, erratic, doesn't pay
people, fires people, and then these
kind of articles come out like it's a
terrible place to work.
>> I think I'm sticking with high myself.
You know, you never know anyone's
situation because um you know, it's
everyone's different. But and it's funny
with the with the Heinx situation. Um I
guess people have been getting phone
calls and stuff like that because people
figure out how much you get paid.
>> Oh yeah. Yes. So people call can you you
know lend money
>> right right
>> can I borrow money
>> so that's the kind of situation that's
happening c I had to bring up because
it's actually in our news as well the
Elon situation and there's been other um
news with here to where like they've
been talking about the robot stuff where
Hyundai's ahead of Elon and Elon's
freaking out on that and stuff. So
>> anyway that's what's going on. That's
what it's like to work uh at Elon. I
want to hear you're with Elon I should
say. however you want to call it.
Actually, it's port more like Elon tells
you to do and then you do the work and
he takes credit for it. That that's the
situation. But um want to hear your
thoughts on this one and we'll catch you
on the next video. So
