A Brain in Space!?
from *“Yesterday, I Went to Mars ♡”* · host MakotowillOlympusMons
In this episode, I talk about recent reports suggesting a possible merger between SpaceX and xAI, both led by Elon Musk.If such a move were to happen, it would bring together space transportation, satellite communication, artificial intelligence, and social media under a single structure. Beyond the sheer scale of the numbers involved, what interests me is how this could quietly reshape the way technology, infrastructure, and decision-making are connected.There are even ideas being discussed about placing AI infrastructure in space—something that sounds futuristic, yet follows a certain kind of logic when you think about energy, cooling, and global access.From my everyday perspective—running a shop, thinking about small, tangible things—this contrast in scale is fascinating. Not to judge it, not to praise it excessively, but simply to observe how different visions of the future are taking form at the same time.This episode is a calm reflection on that gap, and on what it feels like to be living through a moment when ideas that once sounded unrealistic are gradually becoming part of reality.
