Elon Musk declares ‘whole civilisation is at stake’ and he’s the ‘only solution’
Elon Musk has warned society “is at stake” in a chilling social media post.
The Tesla tycoon frequently speaks out about humanity’s demise, citing population decline as the biggest threat to our species. However, sharing a post on X (formerly Twitter), he blamed another enemy altogether.
The post he shared from user @pmarca read: “There is no differentiation opportunity among Big Tech or the New Incumbents in AI. These companies all share the same ideology, agenda, staffing, and plan. Different companies, same outcomes.
“And they are lobbying as a group with great intensity to establish a government protected cartel, to lock in their shared agenda and corrupt products for decades to come. The only viable alternatives are Elon, startups, and open source.”
The post was widely shared, with one user commenting: “The stakes are high, we need to fight,” to which Musk responded: “Indeed, our whole civilization is at stake.”
Musk has previously said population collapse could put an end to humanity, the Daily Star previously reported. Last year he wrote: “Most people think we have too many people on the planet, but actually, this is an outdated view.
“Assuming there is a benevolent future with AI, I think the biggest problem the world will face in 20 years is population collapse.”
Musk already appears to be preparing for a possible end to society as we know it. The social media mogul is one of a number of billionaires said to be prepping for Doomsday, alongside the likes of Sam Altman and Mark Zuckerberg.
