ELON MUSK IS more than a bit busy building Model 3s, launching rockets, and saving the world from the AI apocalypse, but that isn't keeping him from digging in to his holy mole-iest venture yet: a mildly mystifying scheme to find a faster, cheaper way of boring tunnels, and using it to destroy traffic.Read more: https://www.wired.com/story/elon-musk-test-tunnel/As cool as that sounds, Silicon Valley's version of Tony Stark hasn't said much about his mysterious Boring Company, which now employs six people and shares office space with SpaceX in Hawthorne, California. Just what are its goals? How does he expect to disrupt tunneling? And when will LA traffic ever improve? Musk still isn't talking, but documents the Boring Company provided to the city of Hawthorne, and comments employees made to the city council, provide a few tidbits.
Those clues provide a clearer picture of what Musk is up to. Good thing, too, because the Hawthorne city council just gave the Boring Company permission to begin digging a 1.6-mile tunnel so it can test its technology. Which, by the way, doesn't seem terribly innovative so far.

Good post
Sweet this is awesome!
I have mixed feelings about Tesla. He hasn't even come close to turning a profit and he has had some crazy ideas. I guess he did well with Paypal.
Elon Musk is a strange chappy ) I cant make out if he is going to save us from AI or plunge us into it !! But having said that he has recently said that AI will be more of a threat then N. kOREA which is i think pretty sure consdidering the 5G rollout and the smart internet of things !! nice post contentjunkie )
