No one enjoys the dreaded commute to work, and by 2045, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos predicts we’ll have robots to do that for us. After all, in the billionaire's vision we’ll be venturing to other planets for our 9-to-5's.
Lol, my dude thinks we’re going to have millions of people in space before California finishes their high speed rail project, the project that was started 10 years ago…
You give a guy billions of dollars because he figured out how to put Barnes and Noble out of business and he suddenly thinks he’s a genius at everything.
To give the devil his due, Bezos’s business strategy to grow Amazon was well thought out and well-executed. It also involved exploiting the shit out of his warehouse workers and plenty of sleaze, but Bezos actually knew what he was doing.
Bullshit like this announcement makes me think he’s run out of ideas, though.
The point being that him being good at worker exploitation, and getting extremely lucky with his heavy use of massively leveraging his business for decades doesn’t make him good at rocket science or predicting the feasibility of putting large populations in space.
Especially since, Blue Origin, his rocket company, started 25 years ago and only managed to make a rocket that brings 6 people up to the very edge of space without actually going into it for a couple minutes before coming back down, in that time.

He didn’t even do that.
