Elon Musk says he has never seen evidence of aliens, advocates for truth-seeking AI

Even as the scientific world continues to be intrigued by aliens, eagerly looking for traces of extraterrestrial life, billionaire technocrat Elon Musk has some contradicting views on the existence of aliens. At the 2024 Milken Institute Global Conference, held in Los Angeles on May 7, Musk made some startling claims.

At the conference, the Tesla boss was part of a panel on ‘How to save the human race and other light topics.’ During the conversation, host Michael Milken asked Musk how he felt about the opening sequence of the ‘Star Trek’ series in which the starship enterprise’s mission is to seek out new life forms. Musk responded by saying, “Yeah, that’s the idea.”
