John Elkann and Elon Musk chat! John mention how Comau help Model 3 production

“
Billionaires Elon Musk and John Elkann share optimism about the future of everything from space exploration and energy to artificial intelligence and agree Ferrari NV should steer clear of autonomous-driving technology.

The two spoke for more than 45 minutes on Friday during Italian Tech Week, an event the chairman of Ferrari and Stellantis NV attended in person and the chief executive officer of Tesla Inc. and SpaceX joined over video feed from Texas.”
Both are bullish about nuclear as an interim energy source and solar being the ideal long-term solution. Musk said he’s been surprised by the recent move away from nuclear, calling it “quite safe.” He encouraged building more -- or at least not shutting down -- nuclear power plants.

“We’re seeing how energy prices are just going up -- in gas, coal, uranium -- everything is going up,” Elkann said. “Nuclear is a solution that exists, it’s one that we know, it’s one that is secure and one that we should absolutely develop strongly.”

Uranium prices are going up because countries including China and India are nuclearizing, Elkann added. “That is a very strong indication of also what we should do.”
