Elon Musk told biographer Walter Isaacson that “the only way” to solve the US national debt is with AI and robots, without explaining how they would do it. The comments appear in an interview for Isaacson’s new podcast series, which Axios says premieres on Tuesday.
Why it mattersMusk also said he had “kinda got carried away” with DOGE and should have returned to his companies sooner. For now, the AI-and-robots prescription is an assertion, not a plan with details attached.
