Peter Thiel Says Elon Musk Vision Of A Billion Humanoid Robots In Ten Years Makes All The Hand-Wringing Over Deficits Look 'Unthought-Through' - Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA)
Benzinga
Thiel criticizes Musk's plan for 1B humanoid robots in 10 years, says it contradicts his concern over budget deficits. Thiel also reveals split on tech right over growth vs. debt.
Billionaire investor Peter Thiel says Elon Musk's plan for "a billion humanoid robots in the U.S. in 10 years" collides with the Tesla chief's alarm over ballooning federal deficits, proof, Thiel argues, that Musk hasn't "thought through" the proposition just yet. What Happened: In a recent New York Times "Interesting Times" interview, Thiel recalled telling his longtime friend, "If that's true, you don't need to worry about the budget deficits because we're going to have so much growth," only to find Musk "still worried about the budget deficits." He added that Musk's anxiety "suggests … there are big error bars around it." Musk has repeatedly championed mass automation. He backed forecasts of one billion humanoid robots worldwide by the 2040s and, at Cannes last year, even floated the idea of 20 billion units globally. See also: Satya Nadella Says Microsoft's AI 'Orchestrator' Beats Human Doctors On Tough Diagnoses — What This Means For The Future of Healthcare Yet the Tesla Inc. TSLA and SpaceX chief spent the past week torching President Donald Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," branding the $5 trillion package an "insane spending bill," vowing to bankroll primary challengers and teasing a new "America Party." He warns that unchecked deficits could "bankrupt the country" before robotics eases the fiscal load. Why It Matters: Thiel's critique lands amid his criticism about technological stagnation and end-times politics, signaling a split on the tech right over whether exponential growth alone can erase red ink. Thiel also revealed that concerns about AI and political interference reportedly thwarted Elon Musk's Mars political project in 2024, Peter Thiel revealed. Tesla's Optimus prototype, still tele-operated in demos such as a laundry-folding video, lags Boston Dynamics' Atlas but could sell for under $20,000 once mass-produced, Musk says. The Congressional Budget Office pegs Trump's bill as a $2.4 trillion deficit add-on, largely via tax cuts favoring higher earners. Musk insists only "radical productivity gains" will bridge that gap.

Google Reveals $20 AI Pro Plan With Veo 3 Fast Video Generator For Budget Creators
Tech Times
Google's $20 Pro plan now includes Veo 3 Fast, letting users create high-quality AI videos daily. It's an affordable game-changer in video generation tech.
Google will increase its $20/month Gemini Pro plan with greater access to its capable Veo 3 Fast video maker, giving users an easier and cheaper entry into high-quality AI content creation.The update provides a solid value increase, particularly for users who've been looking forward to trying out Google's innovative AI features without signing up for the Ultra tier's pricey $250/month charge.What's New with the Gemini Pro Plan?In the words of Josh Woodward, VP of Google Labs and Gemini, up to three videos can now be created daily by Pro plan subscribers utilizing Veo 3 Fast, a high-performance variant of Google's AI video model. This update places sophisticated generative video capabilities into the hands of more creators such as marketing professionals, hobbyists, and content creators alike without burning a hole in their pockets.Every video is driven by Google's most advanced AI algorithms to create cinematographic visuals promptly, hence, it is a favorite with those who require high-quality, fast video content.Video Generation with Credits: Flow Pro BenefitsFor those subscribed to Flow Pro, there's more good news. Users can now tap into Veo 3 Fast using 20 credits per generation. Since the Google AI Pro plan comes with 1,000 monthly credits, this means plenty of room to experiment across tools like Gemini, NotebookLM, Whisk, and now Veo 3 Fast.This credit-based system introduces flexibility whereby users can determine how much they wish to spend on a particular tool depending on their requirements.Veo 2 Still Available for Budget CreatorsIf you don't feel like spending more credits, Google hasn't forgotten about you. Veo 2 is still an option as a backup. Although it doesn't handle audio and has slightly less video quality than Veo 3 Fast, it's still a working option for simple AI video creation, according to Android Police.It's a great choice for beginners or those trying out ideas without requiring finished output every time.Subtitles Get Smarter, TooAnother perk you will reap here is Google's refined Veo's subtitle capability, a response to user input on the current state of captioning on AI-created videos. This minor but sweet update makes accessibility and finishes a bit smoother for creators working with content placed on sites reliant on captioned media.If you've just managed to get yourself a Pixel 9, count yourself lucky. The phone includes one year of free Google AI Pro, providing you immediate access to all the enhanced capabilities, such as Gemini, Veo 3 Fast, and a whopping 2TB of cloud storage.|
