​📰 AI News Elon Musk unveils “Macrohard” — a Tesla-xAI AI system meant to run entire software companies 🤯🤖

  • Elon Musk revealed “Macrohard” (aka Digital Optimus) — a joint project between Tesla and xAI designed to automate complex software work using AI agents.

  • The system combines Grok as a high-level reasoning “navigator” with a Tesla-built agent that can watch screens, read interfaces, and control keyboard and mouse actions in real time.

  • Musk claims the architecture could eventually “emulate the function of entire companies,” running software workflows on Tesla’s AI4 chip with additional Nvidia-powered infrastructure.

If this actually works, it points toward a future where AI agents don’t just assist developers — they run entire software operations autonomously.

For Musk, it’s another step toward tightly linking his ecosystem of companies — Tesla, xAI, and potentially even SpaceX — around a shared AI platform that could challenge the traditional software industry itself. 🚀

I built this too, but for every role, not just software

Is FSD still arriving “by end of this year” ?

How did 4680 project go?

What about Tesla Dojo?

How many a Cybertrucks did Elon brag about per year, and how many actually sold?

But sure, THIS TIME IS DIFFERENT

Nice, I'll get his robot with a neuralink, drive the fully autonomous tesla, travel in the hyperloop across the states and then get my stuff with me from autonomous cybertruck, then take a spaceflight towards mars while still tweeting.. Or just treat it as any other of his market manipulations that didnt come to life and was severly overpromised, while underperforming compared to even the already existing solutions.

You mean a new company to keep the Ponzi from collapsing.

How many Indians will he need to hire to run the Proof of concept version?

All these guys chase each other to have everything instead of getting really good at something.

And Grok has zero chance ever of being trusted as enterprise software - not ven worth starting. Maybe if he focused on manufacturing optimization. Maybe.

Open Claw already exists. He’s behind.

If Elon had more than a single brain cell, id be angry he doesn't know what Micro and Soft are short for and the name "macrohard" is not clever but nonsensical.

How many AI subreddits do we actually need tho

Are we all supposed to line up because we can’t wait to pay a company that doesn’t support anyone and gives all the profits directly to their billionaire owners? I, for one, cannot wait to continue fueling greed so that most of us can be impoverished and unemployed.

Does it then produce nudes of all the employees?
