Musk defends AI data centers, slams EU rules at G20

Elon Musk urges the G20 to tread softly on regulating tech and AI, saying European-style rules inhibit innovation. Musk also defends building data centers to meet the needs of the AI revolution, amid a growing backlash against their construction in the United States ahead of midterm elections later this year. The Tesla and SpaceX chief was participating virtually in a tech-focused G20 meeting in North Carolina amid a global debate on how governments should address the dangers and promise of artificial intelligence. Musk also says that in ten years there will be at least a billion humanoid robots and that they "will be more productive than all humans combined."

00:00is that you have to have an environment that's relatively free of regulation,
00:06meaning that new things must be default legal as opposed to default illegal.
00:12So in the EU, for example, we find that the regulation level is extraordinarily high and
00:18things are generally default illegal, and this inhibits progress of new technologies.
00:25It slows it down. It doesn't ultimately stop it, but it slows it down quite considerably.
00:30Consensus is at this point is that there will be a significant power shortfall next year,
00:37so not like distant future. There's expected to be, I believe the consensus estimate among analysts
00:44that follows the AI space very closely is that there will be at least a 15 gigawatt shortfall of power
00:51in 2027 for AI chips. So this is perhaps an obvious thing that one would expect to occur because
01:03the rate at which AI chips is being produced has been rising incredibly rapidly. They're sort of
01:09rising on the order of 40 to 50 percent a year, but the power available outside of China has been
01:15rising at like 10 to 20 percent a year. So in fact, even I'd say at this point, there are
01:23challenges
01:23with power even before next year, which is why Google and Anthropic and many other companies are
01:30actually leasing compute from SpaceX because we've been able to turn on AI better than anyone else so far.
01:38But this is by constructing our own power plants is the only way we were able to do it.
01:44in 10 years of humanoid robots. And I think this is a conservative estimate, by the way.
01:50This is one I wouldn't be willing to put serious money betting on, that there will be at least a
01:57billion robots in 10 years and that those robots will be at least five times the output of a human,
02:02meaning the billion humanoid robots will be more productive than all humans combined.
02:14So
