“And we start digging the tunnel tonight https://t.co/UYSIU0qg34 https://x.com/hyperloop/status/825204857975894017”
“@ArtemisConsort Government-enforced monopolies always result in a broken feedback loop for serving the people”
“@TechAmazing @UniverCurious Tunnels!!”
“All Boring Loops will include continuously circulating cars dedicated to pedestrians & cyclists”
“@boringcompany Congrats Boring Company team!”
“Perhaps lost in the transport debate is that @boringcompany built a 6000 ft tunnel in LA for ~$10M with V1 (Godot). Next tunnel will be made with V2 (Line-Storm). V3 (Prufrock), aspirationally 10X better, should be operational next year.

“@Tesmanian_com Zip around Vegas super fast with Teslas in tunnels!”
“@FrancisSuarez @CityofMiami Cars & trucks stuck in traffic generate megatons of toxic gases & particulate, but @boringcompany road tunnels under Miami would solve traffic & be an example to the world. Spoke with @RonDeSantisFL about tunnels last week. If Governor & Mayor want this done, we will do it.”
“@ValaAfshar Tunnels are the solution to traffic. You can have as many levels as you want. Usable tunnel depth far exceeds tallest buildings, so would work even for New York or Beijing.”
“RT @Real_RobN: And here is: Elon Musk: “Effectively, there’s a giant fraud loophole: the government can send money to an NGO that is no l…”
“Not as much as tunnels though”
“26 ft diameter tunnel running 2 miles under D.C. https://t.co/XFQkioEsg8”
“@shaunmmaguire The throughout in the Vegas tunnels is already better than an average subway btw. It’s a myth that subways are super efficient.”
“Now @boringcompany tunnels are in active use in Vegas. Try it if you’re in town. Will be expanding to connect all major destinations in Vegas plus airport.”
“@vincent13031925 Will also be launching The Boring Company China on this trip”
“Boring Company guide to why tunnels are awesome & safest place to be in an earthquake https://t.co/ZZIPQlscw1 http://boringcompany.com/faq”
“@BillyM2k We are changing the auto-reply from 💩 to a “We will get back to you soon” infinite loop”
“Will be building a Hyperloop test track for companies and student teams to test out their pods. Most likely in Texas.”
“@flcnhvy @boringcompany Fallout-themed opening party for Vegas Loop happening as soon as allowed!”
“@tobi It’s a game-changer. Buildings are 3D, which requires transport to be 3D to solve congestion. Many layers of tunnels underground to impedance match to the many floors of buildings above ground.”
“That special hat delivery will take place deep within the real, but fictional (of course), tunnel we are building under LA while you drive the giant machine blindfolded. This will actually happen.”
“Imma gonna dig that tunnel with this here hammer”
“Congratulations to WARR team from Tech Univ Munich for winning 2nd @Hyperloop competition! Peak speed of 324 km/h, which is over 200 mph!!”
“@Teslarati Boring Co will also connect Vegas hotels & airport. Autonomous Teslas in tunnels will provide individualized mass transit.”
“@2AvSagas I guess you could say it’s a 150 mph, underground, autonomous, electric bus that automatically switches between tunnels and lifts. So, yes, a bus.”
“Just arrived at the @Hyperloop competition final. Student teams have amazing talent!”
“To preserve the transcendent majesty & specialness of The Boring Company cap, we are capping cap orders at 50,000 caps. Almost there ... https://t.co/YqjEQAfy3u https://www.boringcompany.com/hat/”
“@ikristoph @brickroad7 Team is closing the loop on interventions very rapidly. To get enough training examples for potential serious accidents, we have to run them in sim, as we have so few in the fleet, despite doing ~1M miles per day of FSD.”
“@maxxrpbtc @TheCryptoLark @Manny6Manny @jungleincxrp @digitalassetbuy @MoonLamboio @JWilliamsFstmed Good article. I started The Boring Company as a joke, but now it’s digging real tunnels!”
“@PeterDiamandis Total miles traveled will increase significantly when people don’t have to drive themselves in soil-destroying traffic. The resulting traffic increase will slow transit times, even with autonomous cars. That’s why we will need a network of multi-level tunnels, which can… https://t.co/154llN6r3D https://x.com/i/web/status/2022422853094916496”
“@jacobinmag Btw, if anyone else wants to build this tunnel, please do so. It’s a lot of work.”
“Btw, 99% likely to be fine (closed loop TVC wd overcome error), but that 1% chance isn't worth rolling the dice. Better to wait a day.”
“@UniverCurious High time we had tunnels!”
“Tesla owner drives through a flooded tunnel & out the other side https://t.co/RmPxdZShhq http://electrek.co/2016/06/18/tesla-model-s-driving-swimming-flooded-tunnel-video/”
“@rainnwilson Your Tesla can function as a boat for brief periods of time https://t.co/FONhnIiv8j https://electrek.co/2016/06/18/tesla-model-s-driving-swimming-flooded-tunnel-video/”
“@PopMech Tunnels ftw”
“@Kristennetten @boringcompany @Tesla We simplified this a lot. It’s basically just Teslas in tunnels at this point, which is way more profound than it sounds.”
“Naming theme for tunnel boring machines will be poems & plays. Decided against plays & poems. Too obvious.”
“A Model S in The Boring Company tunnel being dug under Los Angeles (starting in Hawthorne) https://t.co/tQVD5KkIvb https://www.instagram.com/p/BYUeGjmAh8N/”
“@SawyerMerritt @boringcompany @Tesla Any fully autonomous electric cars can use the tunnels”
“@Scobleizer @TodayTeslanews Boring Company would gladly build tunnels for others, but no one else is even trying”
“@bscholl There has to be an effective feedback loop to the people or we live in rule of the bureau, not rule of the people (demos)”
“@alexxubyte Twitter search will add feedback loops to improve result rank based on which result you click on & whether you immediately click back (implies wrong result)”
“@TEDTalks @i_firth Norway has some really cool tunnels and bridges”
“@Teslaconomics Tunnels solve traffic”
“@EdKrassen Close the massive “anyone can have asylum for no reason” loophole”
“Will publish Hyperloop alpha design by Aug 12. Critical feedback for improvements would be much appreciated.”
“@Vernon3Austin I love trains, but the future is individualized mass transit with autonomous electric vehicles taking you precisely to your destination. Tunnels are needed to address the fundamental choke points in cities. You can’t have 3D buildings and expect a 2D transport system to be”
“@ajtourville Important to note that we also use the Tesla HW4 AI computer in the training loop with Nvidia GPUs, currently at roughly a 1:2 ratio. Also, we’re changing the name from Hardware 4 (HW4) to Artificial Intelligence 4 (AI4). That means ~90k H100, plus ~40k AI4 computers.”
