🚨 Elon launches “Macrohard” — a company run by AI, not people

Elon Musk just announced Macrohard, an xAI spinoff that he describes as “tongue-in-cheek” — but insists it’s real.

💻 The concept: a fully AI-simulated software giant — no factories, no chips, no employees
🌈 Models create, manage, and sell software inside a GPU farm — “Microsoft reimagined without humans”
🎭 The name may be a joke, but the challenge to Big Tech is serious: build a company that lives entirely in code

If Musk pulls it off, Macrohard would be the first experiment in a corporation without people — testing whether AI can not only write software, but run a business.

🔔 Nvidia CEO says AI could bring four-day work weeks

Jensen Huang believes AI productivity gains may cut the workweek down to four days—just as past industrial revolutions reshaped working life.

⚡ AI will eliminate repetitive tasks but free people to chase more ideas, not rest
📊 Trials in the UK, US, and Canada showed four-day weeks boosted output by 24% and halved burnout
🗓 Huang likens it to history’s shift from 7-day to 5-day weeks—AI could spark the next leap

He cautions, though, that we may end up busier than ever.
