Tesla and SpaceX over the next few months: • June 18: CRSP index inclusion for SpaceX. Triggers an estimated $4-7B in forced buying by passive funds. • June 18: FTSE Russell index inclusion for SpaceX. Triggers an estimated $6-9B in forced buying by passive funds. • June 26: MSCI index inclusion for SpaceX. Triggers an estimated $3-5B in forced buying by passive funds. • End of June: HW3 Tesla owners get FSD V14 Light. Expect possible delays. • July 2: Tesla Q2 vehicle and energy storage delivery report. • July 6: NASDAQ 100 index inclusion for SpaceX. Triggers an estimated $8-12B in forced buying by passive funds. • Late July: Tesla Q2 earnings call. • Early-mid August: SpaceX Q2 earnings call, their first earnings call as a public company. • 2 trading days after SpaceX's Q2 earnings released: 30% of eligible insider shares unlock (equates to 12% of all outstanding shares). NOTE: Since only about 40% of all outstanding shares are eligible for early release lockups, that 30% above equates to 12% of all outstanding shares. Elon's shares, board member shares, and some others, are subject to an extended lockup of 366 days. Together, the shares subject to these extended lockup restrictions represent 60% of SpaceX's outstanding shares. • August 21: 7% of eligible insider shares unlock (equates to 2.8% of all outstanding shares). • September 10: 7% of eligible insider shares unlock (equates to 2.8% of all outstanding shares). • September 25: 7% of eligible insider shares unlock (equates to 2.8% of all outstanding shares). • September: Indexes rebalance. SpaceX will then have a higher weighting in those indexes due to an increase in the public float from insider shares being unlocked. Passive funds would likely need to purchase billions of dollars worth of additional shares to bring their holdings in line with the new index weight. • October 2: Tesla Q3 vehicle and energy storage delivery report. • October 12: 7% of eligible insider shares unlock (equates to 2.8% of all outstanding shares). • October 26: 7% of eligible insider shares unlock (equates to 2.8% of all outstanding shares). • Late October: Tesla Q3 earnings call. • Early-mid November: SpaceX Q3 earnings call. • 2 trading days after SpaceX's Q3 earnings released: 28% of eligible insider shares unlock (equates to 11.2% of all outstanding shares). • December 9: 7% of eligible insider shares unlock (equates to 2.8% of all outstanding shares). • December: Indexes rebalance again. SpaceX will then have an even higher weighting in those indexes due to an increase in the public float from insider shares being unlocked. Passive funds would likely need to purchase billions of dollars worth of additional shares to bring their holdings in line with the new index weight. (The Cursor acquisition will likely affect these lockup percentages slightly)

Replying to @ICannot_Enough
It would require manufacturing solar panels & radiators on the Moon and launching them into deep space with a mass driver. Well before that, conventional money will no longer be relevant. Mass & energy will take the place of dollars.

Americans now spend 2x more time chatting with AI companions than using dating apps. And the gap is widening 🤯

Average U.S. lifespan is about 79 years. Average health span is closer to 64. That’s roughly a decade‑plus of life spent managing chronic illness and rising medical bills.  This is why my goal is to help people across the world live healthy lives.

AI for helping crack a health mystery. So many stories like this, and a clear motivation to be excited about AI:
I’m an AI researcher turned brain tumor patient, and recently I used the models to crack my mystery fatigue faster than my PCP could. I believe everyone can do the same with their own symptoms. Here’s how:

Adults with ADHD report more hyperfocus, creativity, humor, and spontaneity as personal strengths. Knowing and utilizing these strengths better predicted wellbeing, quality of life, and fewer mental health symptoms.

AI will achieve Stockfish-level coding and generalized computer use

SpaceX has exercised the option to acquire @cursor_ai in an all-stock transaction with the goal of building the world’s most useful AI models. For the past few months, SpaceXAI has been jointly training a model with Cursor, which will be released in Cursor and Grok Build soon. We look forward to working closely with the Cursor team to advance our frontier AI capabilities

It is humbling to consider that if we harness just 1 millionth of the Sun’s power for AI, that will be much more than a million times the intelligence of all of humanity

great ux makes such a difference
We just shipped a faster, more fluid photo attach experience in ChatGPT! The attach menu now transitions smoothly into the camera, captures happen more quickly, and selected images move directly into the composer, making the whole flow feel like one continuous action.

A 90-minute nap with deep sleep and REM rivaled a full night of 8-hour sleep for visual skill learning. The afternoon nap may be one of the most underrated performance tools we have.

New pod: INSIDE THE MOST MIRACULOUS MONTH OF MEDICAL BREAKTHROUGHS IN ... YEARS? DECADES? The two leading causes of death in America are heart disease and cancer. Nothing else comes close. And in the last 4 weeks, we've gotten sensational news on unprecedented therapies that fight (even "cure") cardiovascular disease and take on previously "undruggable" cancers I went deep with @matthewherper on: - why the latest GLP1, retatrutide, works so well - is ~everybody is going to be taking low-dose GLP1s in the next 10-20 years because of the side-effect profile? - new evidence that GLP1s might significantly reduce some cancers - daraxonrasib, the miraculous new pancreatic cancer vaccine, and why it seems to do the impossible - promising, if experimental, new results for a one-and-done gene therapy to wipe out vast swaths of heart disease risk - where is AI in all of this? youtube.com/watch?v=Hwq6XM6o…
This has quietly been a miracle month in medicine. In the last 5 weeks we’ve got news on: - retatrutide, the triple agonist GLP-1 from Lilly, basically melting fat and body-wide inflammation at record levels - RevMed’s new pancreatic cancer drug showing unprecedented abilities to extend life - small trial of a one-and-done PCSK9 gene editing therapy for slashing LDL cholesterol - Mayo’s AI-assisted radiology showing vastly improved cancer detection - this new therapy for metastatic solid tumors This stuff is at varying levels of evidence. Retatrutide is ~100% on its way, other stuff needs more clinical trial data. But put it together and we’re maybe on the verge of majorly reducing the mortality of heart disease and cancer, the two leading causes of death in America.

The scale of what is to come has no precedent
To get a sense of scale, here’s how the $85.7b SpaceX just raised compares to what they’ve historically spent on different programs. People aren’t ready for the magnitude of things to come

For medical information, general AI frontier models (Google, OpenAI, Anthropic) outperformed specialized @EvidenceOpen and @UpToDate as assessed by 12 US clinicians, randomized and blinded to which model and extensive testing/benchmarks. This was not anticipated. @NatureMedicine nature.com/articles/s41591-0…
