Elon Musk Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

Elon Musk’s past few days have been a masterclass in modern headline-making, starting with his social media platform X, formerly Twitter, which has once again drawn controversy for suspending jet-tracking accounts including those run by Jack Sweeney, who posted viral clips of Musk’s private jet landing in Texas for Starship activities, according to The Lever. Musk’s use of a federal blacklist to shield travel data led to a new outcry about transparency and digital privacy. X also agreed to a tentative settlement with thousands of former employees over employment disputes, a move reported this week that could affect Musk’s role as a tech employer for years to come, as shared by EPSPros.

Business drama continued with Tesla’s unveiling of a next-generation Optimus robot. A slick video released on X featured the latest prototype answering salesforce CEO Marc Benioff’s questions using the Grok AI assistant, giving followers a glimpse of Musk’s vision where physical AI takes center stage. Musk doubly emphasized this pivot in a new Master Plan Part IV, putting ambitious robotics front and center and stating on social media that approximately 80 percent of Tesla’s future value will be tied to Optimus bots rather than cars, as reported by Fortune and Teslarati. Musk predicts the humanoid robots will move from factory floors to dominate Tesla's market cap, calling this the next chapter in AI integration.

Meanwhile, SpaceX pressed ahead with its 298th Starlink launch from Florida, maintaining Musk’s space ambitions. The Falcon 9’s first stage landed successfully on a droneship after delivering fresh satellites to orbit, as reported by SciNews, a testament to the relentless pace at which Musk’s teams converge rocket science and internet expansion.

On the social and political side, Musk turned up his online presence with a sharp warning for America and Europe: posting that low birth rates, not migration, are the number one threat to the West. He reignited debate on population collapse, echoing prior claims that demographic shifts could spell disaster and emphasizing the role AI and robotics might play in offsetting labor gaps. Musk’s influence on algorithmic tweaks to X, especially in the run-up to the US presidential election, continues to get scrutiny according to research summarized by LSE USAPP.

Despite all the noise, Musk remains the world’s richest man for the 16th month running, with Forbes putting his net worth at $415.6 billion—up $14.4 billion from last month, securing a comfortable lead over other billionaires.

On the personal front, Musk’s estranged daughter Vivian Wilson made headlines for revealing she is not wealthy, sharing candid details about her life living with roommates in LA and distancing herself from her father’s fame and fortune, according to The Independent.
