Tesla Car Future

Elon posted this in 2021. Now a Starship has returned from orbit straight into giant robot chopsticks. What a time to be alive.

Ship 42 returns to Starbase, Texas for the first-ever Starship tower catch during Flight 15! I have dreamt of creating this image for years... and today it became real. Congrats, SpaceX team!

One of the coolest things I've ever seen!! Loved the thunderclap as the starship dropped out of the heavens, before the catch. True alien tech. Huge congrats @elonmusk and the @SpaceX team! the whole stack is now proven out. Ad Astra! 🚀

holy f*ck... Elon Musk's team just made airport rebooking lines useless my flight got cancelled and 187 people were ahead of me at the desk. my Grok Bot rebooked me before the line moved 17 people Grok Bot makes phone calls now. it sits on hold, talks to the agent and says up front it's an AI what it did while I stood in line: → sat through 11 minutes of hold music → got me on the 7:40 AM flight tomorrow → the airline cancelled, so it asked for a hotel and meals. got both → "aisle seat is $49 extra" it didn't pay. it asked me. I took the free middle seat → texted my wife the new landing time (signed Grok Bot) and set my alarm 14 minutes on the phone. I walked out of the line, 168 people still in it all it took was 3 rules I sent it once: 1. on every call, say you're an AI calling for me 2. ask for everything I'm owed, nothing made up 3. anything that costs money: ask me first the Grok Bot Research Desk setup is in my article. read it below ↓

Starship and its heatshield are healthy as the vehicle continues to orbit Earth after a spectacular start to its mission nearly 7 hours ago. Teams are continuing to monitor systems ahead of a planned return to launch site catch at Starbase ~22.5 hours after launch
