Elon Musk wants a billion humanoid robots by 2040 to replace Black labor and genius
Top tech enthusiasts such as Elon Musk wants Black people replaced by robots by 2040. It’s not really a secret, he just hasn’t said it directly. Already major companies are experimenting (and implementing) robots replacing labor jobs such as transit, security, and health care, 3 job positions Black people populate heavily. Walmart and other stores have practically replaced the cashier, a job position held by many so called “unskilled” Black women. It’s not really a secret and its only a matter of time before Elon Musk says it outright, more than likely on his platform “X”.
Recently the billionaire ran to social media to express his agreement with a fellow tech leader’s prediction that there will be about 1 billion humanoid robots on Earth in two decades.
Musk took to X, formerly Twitter, to concur with the prediction made by David Holz, the founder of artificial intelligence (AI) research lab Midjourney. Holz said in a post last week that “we should be expecting a billion humanoid robots on earth in the 2040s and a hundred billion (mostly alien) robots throughout the solar system in the 2060s.”
2040 is a very precarious year for the pale population worldwide as it is predicted by many scientists and analysts that people who now classify themselves as “white” will be not only a distinct minority, but will also be verging on planetary extinction by that year. Is replacing the pink populace the new international “race to the moon”? Musk seems to think so.
Musk replied, “Probably something like that, provided the foundations of civilization are stable.” Musk didn’t elaborate about what or who the “foundations of civilization” were. Given Musk’s roots in South African apartheid and that “civilization” is a whistle word for pink people with ties to colonialism, one can infer what Elon really means.
Tesla, one of the companies Musk founded, has developed a prototype humanoid robot that the billionaire may view as contributing to humanity reaching that lofty prediction two decades from now.
The Tesla Optimus, also known as Tesla Bot, was first announced at the company’s AI Day even in August 2021 when Musk said the company planned to build a prototype by the following year. He said of the robot at the time, “I think it has the potential to be more significant than the vehicle business over time.”
At an event in October 2022, Musk said that he hopes to eventually make millions of the Optimus robots, which would carry an estimated $20,000 price tag per unit – though the robot was limited in its capabilities and Musk said after it walked on stage that he wouldn’t ask it to do more complicated tasks because he “didn’t want it to fall on its face.”
“There’s still a lot of work to be done to refine Optimus,” Musk said at the time. “I think Optimus is going to be incredible in five or 10 years.”
As of 2022, Musk said he hoped to bring the robot to market in three to five years and that once ready it will be “an extremely capable” machine.
He said that while making humanoid robots isn’t “directly in line with accelerating sustainable energy” as part of Tesla’s overarching goal, “I think the mission does somewhat broaden with the advent of Optimus to – you know, I don’t know: making the future awesome.” It is time for Black people to take the helm of the tech industry like they have sports and entertainment. There is a future being planned by these egotistical, maniacal, leaders in tech- and just like the classic “Jetsons” cartoon, there is no Black people in their future. If it was up to them Black labor, genius, and art would be replaced by wires, cobalt, and aluminum. Fortunately the future is not up to Elon- it’s up to you.
