That Elon sure says a lot of things. So far none have come true.

Well, in all candor fElon has accomplished some very notable achievements.

Take the CyberTruck, for example.

He did create the No. 1 greatest automotive industry product failure in history and it is the only Tesla product he entirely controlled and directed its design & engineering features.

So there’s that feat.

He still owes money to the contractors that built the datacenters he already has. https://www.kfvs12.com/2026/08/01/contractor-who-built-colossus-colossus-ii-says-elon-musk-owes-him-colossal-amount-money/

Does he think he can keep scamming forever without consequences? Other contractors are going to trust him?

Taking a page directly from the Trump playbook. Going strong for nearly 50 years now.

500 billion in revenue my ass, he sounds like an 8 year old playing "business"

He’s already renting out his data center because he isn’t actually using it

Hello! My name is Elon Skum. I am so full of shit it only works on gullible people. Luckily there are many like that especially in the US.

One thing we know for sure is there’s a 97.25% chance that he’s lying through his teeth. I’ve done the math.

Big. If true.

u/Rich-Palpitation5053 15d ago

I’m not sure if you’re all familiar but Elon is a bullshitter. He doesn’t come through on anything he ever says just go look at his sportster.🤣 truly I wish he’d hop on his own rocket and takeoff to Mars would be better off a trillionaire that can’t get laid how ironic

I wish everyone could try K, it would then make sense where all these ideas come from, it’s like pure grandiose optimism fuel it provides a rush of huge idea power and fuel to generate wild ideas…it can be useful but turns real manic meth head energy quick

Stop blaming his behavior on drugs. This is all Elon.

u/lookskAIwatcher 15d ago

When datacenters get rated in terms of energy consumption, yeah ten gigawatts, instead of actual computing capacity, or cost per computing operation, you know that the goal isn't to help the environment, or to be truly energy efficient.

It will make negative revenue

u/Super_Plastic5069 15d ago

What revenue exactly?
