  Ttereal tellers is ttattElonkows nothing about AI. Anyone involved in the field knows all of the big names because we read their papers, listen to their lectures, and talk about their models. He then goes on to be dismissive of work he’s not even close to understanding. It’s blatant ignorance, and Elon is used to just being able to power through his ignorance by either BSing his way past people who know no more than him or firing anyone who is actually qualified and as a result disagrees with him.

  For the most part, I’m genuinely sad to say, the answer is going to be “no,” for a couple of reasons. For the most part, consumer grade items are pretty much crap. They’re functionally focused, as opposed to aesthetically focused. Yes, an old Apple computer signed by Woz will always be worth a lot of money, but for the most part they’re mass produced commercial items. No one is going to care for a first edition Apple Watch ten years from now.

  Compare that to an Italian designer chair that sold for $700 in 1969 and now goes for $45000 in mint condition. Things like furniture (and to some extent cars) can increase in value because they’re aesthetically as well as functionally designed. No one, 50 years from now, is going to be impressed with an iPhone 8.
